Packed full of cutting-edge technologies and designed to shoot brilliant Full HD video – the striking new Canon LEGRIA HF S10 and LEGRIA HF S100 add premium quality High Definition imaging to your lifestyle.
Your life deserves to be recorded in every last detail. Thanks to an astonishing 8.0 Megapixel Full HD CMOS sensor, new LEGRIA HF S-series camcorders capture all of the action at super-high resolution, producing simply outstanding Full High Definition (HD) movies. With a host of clever shooting technologies – powered by the next generation processor DIGIC DV III – you gain maximum control over what you’re shooting as well. And, because these camcorders record to flash memory – smaller, lighter, and much more efficient than any format that’s come before – you can keep on recording for hours and hours.
With its stunning design lines, the Dual Flash Memory LEGRIA HF S10 shoots to 32GB of internal flash memory, but also offers the option of shooting to removable memory cards. Alternatively, for anyone who just wants to share their movies immediately, the LEGRIA HF S100 records straight to memory cards. Which one will you choose?
