At 0:08, you had a clip where it focused in and out. What settings do you have, because I can never get my Canon FS100 to focus on one thing and blur the background.
There is a manual focus setting, accessible through the joystick control. It's a bit of a thing to find and use... pivoting the stick left and right (click click) brings the focus in and out. There are also controls for shutter speed - or frames, i should say. The little machine has a number of tricks available, quite a bit of modulation, on a camera this size. Check the canon site for a download of the full instruction manual...
Weird things is that the FS10 is generally cheaper than the FS200 since it's an older model ($299 at Costco with a case and extra 4GB SD card), has 8 gigs of on-board memory and larger pixel count (1.07MP CCD versus 680k on the FS200). Something worth noting.
the quality is awesome..just have a quick question..did u upload the footage to youtube straight from the camera? or did u convert it to some other format? thanks.
imported into iMovie 08, exported at 640 by 320 or so. Footage played directly from the camera seems to need "de-interlacing"; it's smoother after processing through the quicktime steps in iMovie.
Search the web for the many detailed technial conversations about these issues. Me, I let the computer do the work!
kuyakev it shoots .mod and you would need to buy Adobe Premiere Elements 7 to deal with this kind of avchd file. That goes for all camcorders that use avchd ok. :) David and Charmaine
how did u make the quality so good?

how did you get the video to be full screen?
most hq videos on here(with canon fs-100) have to be converted to 640 by 480...

In response to question - what setting? - the highest quality that the camera offers (9mbps, I believe), using manual zoom.
