The Canon Vixia HF S100 and the Flip UltraHD are merely two cameras that have made this month’s Top 10 Camcorders list. Here’s a quick look at just some of what these two pieces of kit offer users.
The Canon HF S100 represents the supreme range from Canon’s 2009 camcorders. The new release holds a novel 8.59-megapixel sensor, large lens, still photo traits, and superb progressive custom control dial for smooth and well-defined focus adjustment, and many other features, like an upgraded overall video performance and exceedingly high sharpness. In spite that this Canon HF S100 neither has the biggest internal capacity nor is it the most user-friendly between its fellow competitors, it unquestionably provides the more advanced end user, the most wholesome and flexible experience.
The Flip UltraHD was available in Spring 2009 and sports 720p high-definition video abilities, a larger 2-inch LCD up from the 1.5-inch screen on its predecessor, bigger buttons, and a rubberized matte finish for better grip. It too encompasses a set of AA-size NiMH rechargeable batteries with the option to use standard AA alkaline batteries, a great convenience for battery backup even though it adds to the weight. The Flip UltraHD is still a lightweight machine that now is available in 2 colors - black or white.
