Canon Vixia HF S100 Camcorder

The Canon Vixia HF S100 records 1920 x 1080 high definition video directly to your removable SDHC memory card. One of the most important features of the HF S100 is the 24p Cinema Mode. The 24p Cinema Mode enables all moviemakers to achieve that professional "film-look." You can change the camcorder's frame capture rate to 24p (recorded at 60i), which provides the appearance of the same frame rate as movie film. In addition, you can use the VIXIA HF S100's CINEMA setting, which changes the color and tonal characteristics, evoking the look and feel of a movie shown in a theater. For added flexibility, these settings can be used together or independently. The Vixia HF S100 also comes bundled Pixela ImageMixer 3SE, which allows you to easily perform a variety of functions, including AVCHD Editing in which you can trim, reorder, and combine scenes, as well as add music, titles, and transitions.
