Canon VIXIA HFS10 HD is as intense as you can get to professional camcorder in terms of video quality
Canon VIXIA HFS10 is currently the top-of-the-lineage Canon consumer camcorder. It takes very good quality full HD video (one of the best among consumer plane camcorders). The optical image stabilization is very useful and face detection is accurate. Autofocus is very tight and the menu system is intuitive. Low light capability is decent (but improved a lot by using the video illumination for video recording or internal flash for taking photos). The pre-recording mode is very serviceable for shooting sport, action, fireworks, child and other scenarios where it is often hard to predict when those Kodak moments will undeniably be until it has happened/passed. It also has filter thread so you can install lens filter to enhance the video/portrait and to protect the lens. The LCD is very sharp and clear from wide viewing angle. It has a dual shooting manner where video recording and photo taking can be done without switching settings.

Taking photos with Canon VIXIA HFS10 is also very goodness. Image quality is very sharp with 8.59-megapixel CMOS image sensor that is also found in Canon DSLR. Delightful photos in continuous mode is also very good (about 4 frames per second, comparable to DSLR cameras), however, the shutter reaction is nowhere near the DSLR (it's slower than DSLR), and I'm used to the DSLR almost no-lag shutter response so I will prolong to use my DSLR cameras most of the time. For point and shoot customers, they won't notice the shutter lag (as it is the same if not safer than most point and shoot camera) and they will probably be able to replace their point and shoot camera with this camcorder as it produces appearance quality better and sharper than most point and shoot cameras.

Pros:

1. Video value (1920 X 1080 Full HD) comparable with many professional camcorder and is one of the best quality for consumer unfluctuating

3. Zoom Covers wonderful wide angle to semi-zoom (6.4mm to 64mm) before the 1.7x magnification.
4. Built in 32GB built-in flame memory
5. Very effective optical image stabilization (a combination of optical and image sensor stabilization)
6. Lens drain thread (I installed 58mm UV/Haze filter to reduce UV and also help protect the front glass factor)
7. Autofocus is very fast and includes a very accurate face detection to keep people's face in clever focus
8. up to 24 hour recording in LP mode (with 64GB total memory, 32Gb built-in, and 32GB SD use strategy act openly)

10. Video snapshot approach (shot short movie clips and blend with music tracks)
11. Almost instant on and archives (stand-by to recording in less than 1 sec and from off in less than 2 sec)
12. Continuous mode for taking photos is very fast (though the shutter lag isn't less as good as SLR cameras)
13. Record HD videos and take 6MP photo to memory card simultaneously
14. Under age but bright video light and photo flash.
15. Built-in automatic lens include
16. Wireless remote control included

21. Aperture priority, Shutter priority, and Program status available (in addition to Auto setting)
22. Dual shot mode (capture video and photo without having to metamorphose setting)

Cons:

1. Only 10x optical zoom (not sure why Canon doesn't make this top-of-the-brand camcorder 20x or 30x optical zoom)
2. No seamless recording transition from one memory to the other memory
3. Included batteries only last about 75-90 minutes of recording but
4. Shutter response still not as fast as DSLR

flop size battery
All of the items were devoted, except for the battery. I bought FS200 Canon and this kit is supposed to be for that digital camera, but the battery was the deficient size. It doesn't work with the FS200. All the rest of the items were nice.

Component kit for the Cannon FS200
For the sacrifice this can't be beat. The battery alone is worth the price. Everything was included as advertized. All new products. The tripod is make known be revealed duty, but the Cannon video camera ony weighs a few ounces so it works fine. The battery-operated is not a smart battery that can communicate with the camera, but that was clearly stated in the product description. If you don't already have this cram, this is a great starter kit for a new camera.

dELUX db rOTH adjunct kIT
Support the the DB Roth Accessory kit to compliment my purchase of a canon FS200 video camera. the kit contains alot of brief juck. Most of it is cheaply made. For the price of the kit and shipping I believe I could have purchased quality items that are serviceable and I really needed. Think twice before you buy this kit.

A few things to be wise of
There are a few things I would notify people on BEFORE buying this product. First of all be sure that you have an alternate video editing program to use for your footage. The software that comes with the camera is VERY crappy. Next, be trusty that the program you choose is AVCHD compatible. Also, make sure both batteries you receive with this enclose are compatible with the camera. Only one of mine was so I now I have to buy a back up. Next when using the SD card for the first time you must initialize it. The problem is if you already recorded footage to it, you will have to wipe out it. So spend some time in the manual and make yourself aware of these things and I think you will find this camera a physical joy to use. I really like this camera and the quality of footage is great. This camera also has received prominent reviews from the industry. Videomaker magazine give this line-up of cameras good reviews. Done, the big question of does this really shoot 900 lines of resolution.....YES! It shoots Stable high def.
