Product Description:
The FS100 is one of Canon's first Flash Memory camcorders. In addition to the advantage of added recording time, Flash Memory offers quick response time, because it doesn't have to wait for moving parts. The FS100's lower power consumption rate allows your battery to last longer. Measuring only 2.3" wide, 2.4" high and 4.9" deep, it combines big video storage capacity in a small, easy to carry body. The 2.7" Widescreen LCD on the FS100 lets you see more of what your camcorder is recording. With the FS100 you get a powerful 1.07 Megapixel CCD image sensor. The video you shoot will be sharp, clear and more true to life, as will your still photos. The Genuine Canon 48x Advanced Zoom on the FS100 extends the power of your zoom. In both wide angle and telephoto positions, there is virtually no loss in image quality throughout the range. The Canon DIGIC DV II Image Processor is the next generation of Canon's exclusive DIGIC DV signal processing technology to ensure optimal image quality for still images, even though video and still images have different color requirements.Focal Length -f=2.6-96.2mm Minimum Focusing Distance -10mm (wide)/1m (tele) White Balance -Daylight, Tungsten, Auto, and Manual Programmed AE -Auto, Program, TV, Portrait, Sports, Night, Snow, Beach, Sunset, Spotlight, and Fireworks2-channel Dolby Digital Audio (AC-3) 3.5mm Stereo Mini-jack Microphone Terminal Dimensions -Width 2.3 x Height 2.4 x Depth 4.9 (58x60x124mm) Weight -9.2 ounces (260 grams)

- Compact, light and affordable
This is my first video camera...but not my first Canon product.My Canon cameras have been user friendly, very affordable and trouble free.So far, I see the same with this camcorder.I also shopped around for the best deal on SD flash memory and found a 16GB online for a good price. The SD is great...all I have to do is remove it from the camera and plug in the side of my laptop to transfer movie for editing. I purchased Vegas Movie Studio from Sony...seems to be relatively user friendly (I can't ... Read More
Rating: - Mac users - works well with iMovie '09
I bought this back in February to use on a ski trip and have been pretty happy with it.Some points of interest:
- Works nicely with iMovie '09 on the Mac.You MUST have the camera plugged into a/c power.Start up iMovie, let it initialize, then connect the FS100 via USB.iMovie will find the camera, and after scanning things will bring up a window to allow you to import "scenes".You can import in multiple batches, so if you've got video from a number of events you can create multiple ...

Rating: - Great digital camera
This is my first digital camcorder. And I have to say I love it, it is great. The picture is good and the sound recorded is pretty clear. It satisfies all my needs and plus it is very cute to hold.

- Software is beyond bad
Like other, let me just say that the ImageMixer software is so completely unusable that it is reason alone to avoid this camera. Too bad, because the camera works well. But the movies it produces are in an odd format and can't be read or edited by some other software packages.
I use Canon software almost every day for still photography, but the bundled software ruins this product. Don't but it until Canon comes up with a better solution.
