This is an exceptionally well-designed little camera that does everything you could possibly want for the amateur videographer, and would even be serviceable for smaller scale professional work. The HF10 has 16GB of memory onboard, which is enough to sho
I recently purchased this camcorder and have very few complaints. I'm not an over-the-top videophile but the picture quality looks great to me, it seems to have all of the features I wanted and it's fairly easy to use. Look around and you can fi
We ordered this video camera to video tape our daughter's indoor swim meet. It arrived just a a day before the meet, but it was very easy to use and after just a few minutes of practice we were ready to go. The camera has a variety of settings to u
Video quality and color is superb. Small and light. Image stabilizer works well. Long optical zoom. Low light level capture is very, very good. Audio quality and sensitivity is very good. Easy to use and fast to start up. Built-in automatic lens cap
All I can say is I love it. It works for what I need it for. Just wish I could of waited a little longer for the price to drop because I paid 800 for it and now I see it as much cheaper.
I don't own one of these but am considering one. I just read an article in HD VIDEO PRO magazine wherein they mentioned the extensive use of these cameras in the new Jason Statham flick CRANK 2. They used a handful of larger Canons and ten of these
Just bought this camcorder recently and it is excellent. I can easily shoot high def video onto the internal flash drive and then copy to a removable flash drive. Using my iMac, I simply copy the video files onto my hard drive and then stream them in th
I did a lot of research of HD camcorders and am very pleased with the choice I made with the Canon Vixia HF10. It is a very simple camera to use and is packed with a lot of great features. HD camcorders are more expensive than the standard definiton, bu
I did my share of research on camcorders. This is the best bang for the buck as of early 2009. The camera met my criteria, - it needed to be a true HD - have supperior picture quality within competition of the same type of camera - have solid state memory
Like others here, I was also in the market for an HD camcorder to take advantage of my HDTV, and because I didn't want to spend $300 for a standard-def camcorder now, only to have to upgrade a year or two later...so I took the plunge. I actually orig
excellent and very easy to use so far. Just ordered the HDMI mini cable so haven't connected to our HD TV yet.
Easy to use with iMovie '09!!! like the 16GB built right in no need for space consuming tapes or DVDs!!! like having the option of changing size of movie (all though I never do!!) screen size is perfect!!!
Great Video Quality OK Audio Quality Very light weight (Some times it's an issue to be light weight) Easy to use menus and operations Love It. I wanted to take only HF100 but just because of the color i refrained from it. I like BLACK :) Between, i h
I am definitely an amateur, but wanted to get a good, high definition camcorder at a reasonable price, and this Canon certainly fits the bill. I am pleased with how well it works in daylight, and surprised at how well the picture comes through with less
I work in an executive capacity at a fairly large Agency. I do a lot of video. Commercial work. Mostly interviews and work that ends up on the web. Lugging around the bigger cameras is a pain and I just could never do it. After I bought the first one,
Great camera. Easy to use, yet has many options if you want them. Turns on and begins taping very fast. Great picture. No problems with battery life, yet... The camera did seem to not realize you had changed modes from viewing video to shooting video
When shopping for a new camcorder to replace my old MiniDV camcorder, I was apprehensive about going the flash-based, tapeless route. Especially to a camcorder that compresses the footage as it is recorded. I bit the bullet, however, and got the Canon Vix
Rather than regurgitate what everyone else has said already, let me put it plainly: The picture quality of the videos from this camera are so beautiful, so full of detail that it looks like a moving photograph. You can see the hairs on your childrens head
I have been researching HD camcorders for the past month. Debating weather to go with a Sony HD camcorder or the Canon HF 10. I usually go for Sony on electronics. I have a digital camera from them and it is the best one I have ever owned. I just wante
Compact. light, user friendly, instant respone, good - awesome high definition quality for the price! In additional, a megapixel camera too.
I bought a top of the line SD camera with a 50 zoom. I could not stand the "video tape quality" of the video so I got this HD one. I am new to camcorders but good with electronics. I am amazed with the quality of the sound and HD video. The
Very good quality, I played it on my samsung HDTV...the picture is stunning. A UV FIlter is definitely a neccessity. Must buy extra battery with more juice. The only bad thing is the software that is included, better buy Sony Vegas 9.0 the version that ed
I purchased the Canon VIXIA HF10 a few days ago and wanted to mention a few things about it as well as some points about burning the video to standard DVDs in the highest quality possible using Video Studio 11.5. What's hot: Amazing full 1080i video
The Canon HF10 is on amazing piece of technology wrapped up in a small and very versatile camera body. This camera along with a Mac will make you into a very proficient video artist. Hardware: From the start having a flash based camera is a tremendous ad
If you are looking for Home/personal use HD (compact) camcorder, this camcorder definitely should be in your list, unless of course there are newer models out there. :) I use this almost everyday. Plus: 1. Easy transfer. I use iMac (Leopard and both iMovi
I didn't expect to be able to buy a top-notch video camera for under $650 this year, but this camera has everything I want. I was originally going to stick with Panasonic, JVC, or Sony because they are well-respected names in video, but the Amazon re
I read up on what camcorder to order. All the reviews where correct, this is a fantastic digital recorder.
This is my second HD camcorder (Sony HC3 bought 2 years ago). This one beats the Sony. It is light, very small, easy to use, and the picture quality is superb. Because of the light weight a very steady hand or tripod is useful as camera shake is hard to
The best part is being able to randomly access the different recordings! No more tape to rewind/fast forward.
This seems a fantastic camcorder. Unfortunately, I cannot use it because it is not compatible with other equipments I have which use the PAL system. So, I had to return it. I was confused because I bought in the past other Canon products through amazon.co
I studied the various HD Camcorder options and after three months settled on the HF-10. I almost got the HF-11 (24 mbps vs 17-18 with HF-10). but the HF-10 is so good that it really suits my needs. Superb video, great focus and zooming, Plays back in 1
This is a great camera. Does everything I asked, and have created incredable videos of my grandkids. Makes professional quality videos. Software could use some tweaking, but I am sure that future versions will take care of that. It is a camera worth th
I have had quite the myriad of camera in the time I've been doing video. I started using my Kodak Z812 IS Camera, which is a great camera, but takes less than steller video - even if it is 720p. I upgraded to an Aiptek Action HD Camera that offered
After doing a lot of comparative research between the HF10, the HF11, and the comparable Sony camcorders, I purchased the HF10 for the following reasons: Video quality. Canon has always had stunning image quality. I viewed a few sample videos on the web
This is an excellent piece of tech. A must for the digital photo enthusiast. It is loaded with innovative options and fantastic ideas. It is worth its price and more.
I've been a Canon pro-sumer user for years. First with the XL-1, then the XL-2 and now Canon has done it again with the VIXIA HF10. Though the HF10 isn't really marketed as a pro-sumer camera, (for that distinction, at the least, I feel you ne
I just edited and burned my first DVD with 1080 footage off of this camera using Adobe Premier Elements 7 and it was flawless! I have a Dell Inspiron 530 desktop with a 1.60Ghz processor running Vista Basic with 4Mb of ram. I will also test with Pinnacle
Bought both cameras to compare. Everybody seems to think that these two are the top consumer cameras to look at. I'll probably agree. Between the two cameras, I ended up choosing the hf10. Simply put, I was expecting the sr11 to perform better at
What model is worth buying and sticking too i know HF10 has 16GB internal memory and SD/SDHC card slot but heard some great views as well as videos taking with both models on Vimeo.com. But i also hear alot bad on HF10 with internal memory that can wind u
I'm a longstanding fan of Canon still cameras having spend some significant coin on two point and shoot and one SLR so when in the market to replace my Sony digital Hi8 video camera, the Canon brand was the first I checked out. My primary requirement
I had the award-winning HDV (tape-based) HV20 prior to this, and the HF10 is almost indistinguishable in terms of image quality. Given the dramatic difference in image data between an HDV image and an AVC image, that means this is one heck of a camcorder
Having read 4 EXCELLENT professional reviews (just google it to see them for yourself) on the HF10 before buying, I completely agree with what was said about this camcorder. It is simply amazing, in virtually every measure of performance! Beats ALL OTHER
Having owned several (consumer & pro grade) HD videocams in the past, the most important feature I was concerned about was low light performance. The latest competing brands (e.g., Sony & Panasonic) had a few attractive tidbits that this videocam
My overall on this is that if you want an AVCHD camcorder, this is by far one of the best in the consumer category. It uses a high-quality Canon glass lens and Canon's renowned auto-focus system which is critical when shooting fast moving kids. The d
If you want to get into HD video in a big way for a reasonable cost the HF-10 is the way to go. I love it. Being able to pop out the SCHD card and get video right into the computer is great. It is small light weight but really delivers a great full screen
This is a fantastic camera but people need to have more realistic expectations of what to expect from AVCHD. It is a highly compressed format so using this camera in low-light conditions is going to produce pretty "grainy" results. In good light
Canon VIXIA HF10 has been my first camcorder purchase. It has exceeded my expectations. I was little skeptical about the still picture quality (with no doubt about the excellence of motion picture quality), th photos hav come quite crisp in color as well
I was instantly amazed at the quality of the video this camera takes. It even looks amazing on the viewfinder. I bought the camera for our business because we needed to make professional quality videos but we couldn't afford the $3000+ cost of a prof
Love it. Easy to use amazing picture, works great with my mac. Light but hardy. The battery life is okay make sure u get an extra. I am using a removable 16G card and haven't filled it yet. It's the best camcorder I ever used.
Don't let the few negative reviews out there fool you, this camcorder is amazing for family recording. Pros: - Just the right level of storage built into the camcorder, with room to grow in the SDHC card. Do you really want to come back from a vacati
