Canon fs 100 - wet flowers and leaves

A wet day with the canon fs100 flash memory standard def video recorder. Close up with leaves and flowers, using the manual focus.

You'll see the cameras tendency to blow out white and bright colors, as well as it's relatively sharp focus.

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...

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.

Hi,

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!

[liamscheff]

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

I heard that FS 200 does not come with a remote controller? is that true?

[akittenonfire]

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.
