    What model is worth buying and sticking too i know HF10 has 16GB internal memory and SD/SDHC card slot but heard some great views as well as videos taking with both models on Vimeo.com. But i also hear alot bad on HF10 with internal memory that can wind uop breaking down wuth and without warranty is valid but thats why we all should get exteneded one on top of vendors but my question is which model is better in ways 1. do they both have or dont have ( MOVING PARTS ) 2. are the video quailty the same when recording in SDHC card or Internal memory or it dont matter do to video be same 3. cheapest way to go almost all are saying HF100 is cheaper but how when u need to stock up on SDHC cards to start using HF10 u got internal mem to begin or leave for back up and just use sdhc cards And most important Q ? i would be using a 2 yr old HP and ACER laptop with Pinnacle Stuido Ultimate ver. 12 along with COREL UleadVideo Studio 11 Plus But i been using those softwares with HG10 and work...

    I'm a longstanding fan of Canon still cameras having spend some significant coin on two point and shoot and one SLR so when in the market to replace my Sony digital Hi8 video camera, the Canon brand was the first I checked out. My primary requirements were full High Definition, no media with moving parts. I did not want a CD or DVD burner, I did not want tape, and I did not want to gamble with a hard drive (I'm in IT and am very familiar with drive failure rates... good, but not likely to last the 5-7yrs I want to get out of the camera). While I like Sony's home AV gear, I've not been a fan of their tendency to use proprietary media.... sure it's often great quality, but I don't want to have to buy a ton of accessories to integrate with current and future systems. The Canon offered nice support for SDHC media (of which cards I already own for a point and shoot and phone). It also introduced me to AVCHD which, from what I can tell is the next thing in HD video format (not medi... Read more

    My wife and I love this product! We used to have a MiniDV camcorder and extracting the film from the camera was always a headache. This flash memory camcorder allows fast transfer through USB 2.0 and makes life much easier. The capacity of the internal flash memory is enough for our family use, as I do not tend to make very long movies, and usually I do not use the highest resolution. The battery capacity is also enough for me. The image stablizer is very helpful when shooting at high magnifications, if you do not want to carry a tripod. The performance under low light conditions is very good. Several white balance options and color temperature schemes give the user plenty of choices to approach the true colors. The cons: 1. The accompanying software is too fundamental. I only use it to do the file transfers. 2. When doing the transfers, you need to plug in the power cord, open the LCD panel, and select "transfer to PC" every time because it's not the default selection. This is someh... Read more

    The camera takes fantasticly clear videos. The instruction booklet is worthless, and the software that came with the camera keeps freezing and booting me out. I purchased different software,and love the video. I still cannot figure out how to take still pictures while recording video.
