A Superb High Definition Camcorder - More Options for Editing Now
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 1080i through Mini-HDMI to HDMI cable on my 1080i HD LCD TV. Component output looks great also.

I have been doing video editing as a hobby for about 10 years and I was concerned about editing the AVCHD on my PC. I am still learning .... Read more

NTSC versus PAL
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.com which have the possibility to switch between NTSC and PAL. The Canon VIXIA HF10 does not have this possibility. This said, I think it is a fantastic camcorder. Too bad that the product description available on line did not specify this import .... Read more

It is a camera worth the money. .... Read more

Excellent AVCHD Camcorder
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 1080p video along with a host of other features. While this was a definite improvement over the quality of the Kodak, it was sorely lacking in many areas. Namely, the video was extremely jerky, you couldn't zoom the camera without the sound of the .... Read more

Horrible Focus and zom range
I bought this camera a month back as I needed a High Definition for best quality and Flash drive for light weight. Though I was very happy with the picture quality even on my 50inch plasma, but I was very very dissapointed with its very limited focus of 12x. Also when you zoom the autofocus doesn't work properly with blurred picture. You need atleast 25X optical zoom else you have to run close to every object and that's not why you need a camcorder. I immediately returned the product with full r .... Read more
