The VIXIA HF S100 allows you to record at up to 24Mbps, the highest bit rate in AVCHD format, for the highest quality image. The VIXIA HF S100 delivers brilliant video and photos through a new Canon exclusive 8.59-megapixel CMOS image sensor and the latest version of their advanced image processor, DIGIC DV III. It combines lightweight, compact size and the ease and convenience of Flash Memory. This technology, the same used in advanced laptop computers, MP3 players, PDAs and cell phones, allows the VIXIA HF S100 to record up to 6 hours of crisp, high-definition video to a removable SDHC card. You have extended available recording space and more flexibility in file transfer and playback.[tubepress mode=’tag’, tagValue=’VIXIA HFS100′, resultsPerPage=’9′]Specifications
