All,

Any positive feedback after using Canon VIXIA HF S100 Flash Memory High
Definition Camcorder or how it is called in Europe? Its price is getting
down, it's around $900 now, I just made one company drop $200 from the price
because of the competitors. But I'm still not sure if it makes sense to buy
it. On one hand - it's the very best in this class, it's HD, it's using SDHC
and a 32GB card gives almost 3 hours of HD video. On the other hands it's
not perfect, the matrix is small, artefacts should be visible, the color
contours are significant, there is no a viewfinder, only a panel, although
it's bright, it's not that convenient, especially after using GL2 for
several years. The most significant PROs for me are HD, using SDHC with the
random access to read/write so that I can delete some fragment and get this
space back immediately, it also should be very convenient and fast if I need
to copy the content to the computer and edit it. I will not need to wait for
the same amount of time that was used for recroding, everything depends on
the SDHC speed, nothing else. So, people, what is your opinion, maybe
experience of using this camcorder?

Just D.
