My first Canon HFS100 footage

[KawaiiAznPanda7]

How far can you zoom?

[austx187]

this video was really helpful for me thank you :)



[betterunknown]

how much was it?

[santygugu]

Which is the title of the song?

[Papasean7]

what music selection is this?

[ThomasVisionInc]

Great detail. I just got a HF S100 the other day. Uploaded some footage here on the tube. Nice job.

[baconbits12321]

which is better the canon vixia hfs100 or 200???

[KevinsSecretChamber]

..

you can hold the camera unbelievably steadily.

[CarlosVthc]

wow!! I'm definitely buying one of these now.

[oidoy]

is it just me or is the footage a little laggy?

[AlecAndElliot1]

@oidoy your retarted its because your computers slow.

[hamercalif]

No, Edith Piaf's "Padam" has nothing to do with this particular waltz. This as it's said before is a soundtrack to the famous russian movie "Look out the car" and the composer is a russian musition Andrew Petrov.

[mya77]

@hamercalif I am not a music expert by any means. Try playing two songs and you I'll hear striking similarities.

[shory686]

i can upload the footage on this camera to image mixer 3(the program that came with it) but from there i cant get the footage onto my computer hard drive or anything so i can't edit it or upload to youtube. can anyone help?

[djccchouse]

does it have a hotshoe to attach lights and stuff ?

[Bruceforge]

@djccchouse Look up some reviews, but yes.

[mya77]

@djccchouse yes it does :)

[djccchouse]

@mya77 cool thanks

[Gnepiah]

Nice quality & Lexus LS ;-)

[TheCouchCrusader]

I saw the sideways flowers at first and thought you were one of those people who trys to hold their video camera sideways. I was all like "Oh no they didn't!" : ) Out of curiousity, what software and export settings did you use?

[mya77]

@TheCouchCrusader hello I used CS4 AVCHD 1080i30

[MaxsonFilms]

settings?

[janekjessen]

i just got this camera, and this looks so nice!

can you tell me you settings?

[erinn172]

What song is this?

[mya77]

This waltz is form classic Russian movie "Warning Cars". I think original tune is French, it's called Padam Padam, Edith Piaf sings it.

[erinn172]

@mya77

I'm still having trouble finding it, could you maybe link me to a list of that Russian movie's soundtrack?

[Exposethefrauds]

I have the new canon vixia HD and when I upload vids to youtube it looks nothing like this at all. Im about to throw the camera away.

[TheMovieMaker2]

@Exposethefrauds Your probally exporting it using wrong settings pm me if you still need help.

[cameramen01]

En la cs4 de adobe si se puede editar pero tienes que tener mas de 4 gb de ram y tarjetas de videi en cros firex para poder trabajarlo sin problemas

[Cr381v3]

around 1:25, auto-focus or manual focus?

[mya77]

all manual

[Durchii]

When editing video in AVCHD format, how does your Premiere CS4 software fare when it comes to speed?

Only reason I ask is that I was using Corel Ulead Videostudio and the editing, even on my computer (which is a dedicated photo/video processing system) was slower than anything you could possibly imagine. If I could find a decent software to accompany this Camcorder that will edit smoothly, I will be satisfied.

[mya77]

This is a common problem with editing AVCHD. I have exactly the same experience editing in CS4. I have to bump up priority on the CS Image rendering process, for my laptop to handle editing.

I've read that Sony Vegas and iMovie can handle AVCHD better.

[rainarzufall]

I Use the Sony HDR SR12 in cobination with Sony Vegas Movie Studio 9 Platinum, and thi software can handle AVCHD pretty good. But you need a good PC, Quad Core at least and lot of Rams ;)

greets from germany

[Masterduo]

I have the same camera and I agree with you. Sony Vegas Pro handles it better and I have a dual core with 4gb of ram. If I have nothing but Sony Vegas or Premiere Pro while editing running it plays fairly well.

[kilymat]

WIndows Live movie maker is smooth as hell here on my HD raw footage, try that

[pompx1]

did you upload your video straight from the camera or did you run in thru some software / postprocessing? i just got the same camera, videos uploaded on youtube (straight from the camera) play in slow motion...

[mya77]

I was using Premiere CS4

[BlackSymphony12]

Ok,thanks.

[BlackSymphony12]

which one is better Canon HV-30 or Canon HF S100

[mya77]

Check out Camcoderinfo . com for full reviews. I pick HFS over HV

[xtreme2331]

as always canon delivers. I'm almost sold on this camera. But I've heard the battery that comes with the kit only last 1 hr...is this true?

[mya77]

Yes, it is true, it lasts roughly 58-60min. If you are planning on recording prolonged scenes, like weddings, performances, it makes sense to get an extended battery.

Also, check out HFS200 it's 40% cheaper then HFS100 or HFS10.

[xtreme2331]

thx for reply. Is it also true that there is no battery charger that comes with the kit???

[jbc429]

thats not true. it comes with a power adapter that charges the battery.

A full charge on highest quality settings will get you at least 90 mins.

lower settings will get you longer.

[Peterpufferbelly]

wait , do you mean the hf200?. because I havn't seen an HFS-200.

[mya77]

try searching amazon

[Peterpufferbelly]

and also what are the settings on?

[mya77]

Up to about 1:54 is was using 30p, vivid colour, cloudy preset.

From 1:54 24p, cinemode, normal colouring.

[Peterpufferbelly]

are the settings hard to configure on this camera?

[mya77]

It really depends on your experience with cameras. My other camera is Panasonic DVX100b, so I didn't have any problems with HF S100 features.

I think, there is some learning curve for the average user, it's not too steep though.

[thejamesmorrisonshow]

omg this is clear
