The Next Step Forward in HD Video
Canon has a well-known and highly-regarded reputation for optical excellence, advanced image processing, superb performance and technological innovation, built on our legendary photographic and broadcast television lenses. Based on that experience, we bring the latest in high definition camcorders. The Canon VIXIA HF S10 Dual Flash Memory camcorder is one such example.
The VIXIA HF S10 delivers brilliant video and photos through a new Canon exclusive 8.59 Megapixel CMOS image sensor and the latest version of our advanced image processor, DIGIC DV III. It combines lightweight, compact size and the ease and convenience of Flash Memory. This technology, the same used in advanced laptop computers, MP3 players, PDAs and cell phones, allows the VIXIA HF S10 to record to both its large 32GB internal memory, for up to 12 hours of crisp, high definition video, as well as to a removable SDHC card. You have extended available recording space and more flexibility in file transfer and playback.

What's more, the VIXIA HF S10 allows you to record at up to 24Mbps, the highest bit rate in AVCHD format, for the highest quality image. The VIXIA HF S10's Canon Exclusive features - such as the Genuine Canon 10x HD video lens, sophisticated Genuine Canon Face Detection capability, SuperRange Optical Image Stabilization and a host of new control and creative options - makes our Flash Memory camcorder unmistakably Canon.

What makes the VIXIA HF S10 stand out in the category of Flash Memory camcorders is its Dual Memory capability. You can capture video on both the camcorder's internal 32GB Flash Memory as well as directly to an SDHC Memory Card.

Video recorded to the internal Flash drive can also be copied onto a memory card which can then be inserted into your computer or HDTV's card reader slot for immediate viewing.

Wow this pretty much takes a DOF adapter and 35mm lens out of the question for myself anyways. And these cameras really arent all that expensive! I just bought a HF M30 But I think I will be selling it for this! Great Video!

[bugilt]

@TheeInspireFilm I was thinking the same thing when I first tested it. I'm going for a hdslr now, but this was a great camera. Thanks!

[TheeInspireFilm]

@bugilt why a dslr? if you dont mind my asking



[bugilt]

@TheeInspireFilm You get a much shallower DOF with the hdslr. I can change to the lens that suits the situation.

[TheeInspireFilm]

@bugilt How do they compare in price?

[bugilt]

@TheeInspireFilm I'm thinking about getting the Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH2 you can get one for around $900 with a 14-42mm Hybrid Lens. The higher bit rate hacks make such nice images.

[TheeInspireFilm]

wow looks like a nice setup. Maybe I will consider one of those.

[digitalwolves]

is this the LEGRIA S10 or the VIXIA S10? and what is the difference between the two???

[ThePatchjack]

WHAT SOFT WEAR DO YOU USE ???

[ThePatchjack]

THE BEST WAY TO USE MANUAL FOCUS is so simple....

ALL WAYS AND I SAY ALL WAYS USE A BLOODY TRIPOD FRAME YOUR SHOTS USE  NATUREL LIGHT LATE OR AERLY

IN THE DAY . ..USE YOUR REMOTE CONTROL THAT CAME WITH THE CAMERA . POINT IT AT THE LCD SCREEN DO NOT TOUCH THE WHEEL OR CAMERA AND YOU WILL GET A GOOD STILL SHOT . GET BACK TO ME.

GOOD LUCK FROM DOWN UNDER OZ
