LIghtweight Canon HD Camcorders

Ever since Sony came out with the Handycam 25 years ago, compact video recorders have become a part of our lifestyle. Compared to earlier digital Sony Handycam models, Canon VIXIA HD camcorders are lighter and easier to carry.

The 32GB Canon VIXIA HFS10 has smaller dimensions than Sony's HDR-CX350V 32GB High Definition Handycam. It also boasts of 8.9 megapixels compared to the 7 megapixels of its Sony counterpart. In addition, the Canon VIXIA HFS10 has a Dual Memory system that combines an internal 32GB flash drive with a separate memory card option. You can usually record 12 hours of video on 32GB of flash memory. With this dual memory function, you can record up to 24 hours of high-definition footage! It captures videos with up to 900 lines of resolution, which is at par with a professional broadcast camera. It also comes with Professional Assist Shooting functions like color peaking and enhanced zebra patterns. All these features packed into a small camera that fits snugly in the center of your palm. If you don't want to hold it, you can also operate it with a wireless remote control!

If you're looking for a lower-priced 32GB HD camcorder, the Canon VIXIA HF20 price is hard to beat! It has a 15x Optical Video Lens with 300x Digital Zoom Ratio compared to the 12x Optical/200x Digital Zoom on bigger HD camcorders. Like the HFS10, it has a Dual Memory function that lets you record onto its 32GB flash drive or a separate SDHC memory card.
