Excellent video quality and performance ; nicely designed interface ; fast battery charging
No eye-level viewfinder ; expensive ; lens cover rattles when closed
An excellent flash-based prosumer HD camcorder, you may nevertheless pass on the Canon Vixia HF S10 because it lacks an eye-level viewfinder. And the identical--but cheaper, because it has no built-in memory--Vixia HF S100 may also be a better buy.
While Canon continues to offer compact AVCHD models, the Vixia HF20 and the...
The overall image quality, deep manual controls, and decent ease of use make Canon's Vixia HF S10 an excellent choice for both advanced and casual videographers.
Good overall video quality; deep and advanced manual controls
Mediocre battery life; no viewfinder
The camera's 1/2.6-inch CMOS imaging chip records 1080 horizontal lines of video; it records 1080i at 60 frames per second, 1080p at 30 frames per second, and 1080p at 24 frames per second. The camera includes 32GB of built-in flash memory and ...
The wait is finally over for Canon's premiere Full HD camcorder beast. Check out our exclusive Canon Vixia HF S10 review here.
Great video quality in bright and low light. Built like a miniature tank. Oodles of shooting features, including Cine mode and multiple frame rates
Design has the potential to be more omnipotent. Certain low light environments are too noisy. Short battery life
That's not to say the Canon Vixia HF S10 is the camcorder to end all camcorders. From a design standpoint, the HF S10 looks as though Canon fused a 2.7-inch LCD onto the side of a giant lens barrel and called it a day. Aside from a sexy concoction of ...
1 Good picture quality, vivid colors

The video quality of this camera is simply th...
HD Video Quality, Excellent Microphone placement, sound is pretty good: better than expected, Lens is big, above average photos from a camcorder, big sensor, good grip, nice looks, HDMI, internal storage and sd, nice video light for night recording
No firewire, generic battery won't display time and always prompts for usage at beginning, no hdmi cable included, a bit expensive (but it's excellent value), there's so many features that it's a bit hard to control and understand
I bought this camcorder as a replacement for ...
Feels solid, good video, very convenient
Basically the less-than-ideal sound quality. Absence of an electronic viewfinder (EVF). Instead of a remote control, I would have preferred an HDMI cable
The VIXIA HF S10 delivers brilliant video and photos through a Canon exclusive 8.59 megapixel CMOS image sensor and the latest version of Canon's 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 S10 to record to both its large internal memory, for up to 12 hours of crisp, high definition video, as well as...
