Now let me introduce you a super Camcorder - Canon HF100

Canon HF100 the appearance of papers

Canon HF100 seamless overall design of the fuselage, a dark gray line machine, science and technology with a perfect sense of fashion sense, part of the fuselage lens metal wire drawing process, prudent style fashion sense strengthened fuselage infiltration. No matter in the hands of young people or elderly people are very proper operation. But Canon HF100 fuselage design in order to maintain the lightweight body, sorry, there is no systemic metal fuselage. Canon HF100 work but still very good, close integration between the various components, and no cheap feel. Canon HF100 not only more compact form factor, performance is also very good, with high-speed image processing engine, to achieve AVCHD format FULL HD-style camera.
Among the many digital cameras, many manufacturers have excessive pursuit of lightweight camera body design, although such a lightweight design has many advantages, but too lightweight fuselage has also brought some shortcomings, Anti-shake decreased, but the Canon HF100 weight probably does not contain batteries 380g about portability is not only very good travel or compact MM single hand operation is not difficult, is even more encouraging is the right control the weight of 380g, 430g plus battery weight so that consumers feel very sure, but also to some extent prevent the light weight had led to the Anti-shake performance.
Canon HF100 with bright multi-angle 2.7 inches LCD screen (about 211,000 pixels, 2.7 "wide viewing angle, wide color gamut widescreen LCD monitor), let you see more screen shots. Using a hard surface and anti-reflective coating improved color, liquid crystal display images in the camera closer to the actual filming of the images. Moreover, this new LCD screen has a wider field of vision, reduced glare, improved contrast, people can watch around with a greater degree of clarity a more realistic image.
We can see the Canon HF100 the fuselage after the left side of the screen to open a number of operating keys, EASY mode, DISP button had been placed in here, is particularly worth mentioning is the DISP / BATT INFO button, in the circumstances shutdown can also be very good to know the situation of the fuselage battery, so you do know the answer, control a good time to arrange filming. Another of its flash memory warehouse mouth, also placed in the bottom left corner, and when the memory card slot after the closure of the hatch will have to be through the EASY button below which sideslip keys to open.

Canon HF100 the use of 1/3.2 "CMOS image sensor, about 3.31 million total pixels, RGB primary color filter, support Super Range OIS optical image stabilization system. Capable of recording AVCHD (in line with the MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 standard) only supports 1920x1080 / 1440x1080 high-definition recording standards, 12 optical zoom lens, from 9 group composed of 11 lenses, lens two aspherical lenses, to ensure the quality of the image acquisition.

Canon HF100 measure static sample


Static camera, we must be prepared to an SDHC, because the internal flash memory as a result of the fuselage to cancel, so only a single-mode HF100 storage of DV, and their "brothers models" HF10 is the flash memory built-in 16G , 16G for the HF100 flash memory as opposed to the equivalent of about six hours of recording time, and if converted into 8CM DVD disc, then that is about 11.
Canon HF100 the manner in which the exposure is divided into shutter priority, aperture priority, scene selection (a total of eight kinds of scenes). Resolution natural settings in 2048 * 1536, as well as widescreen model (LW) 1920 * 1080,, and can manually select the program auto exposure. Filming for flowers, the result has been quite good.

Comments

Canon HF100 in with FullHD (1920 × 1080i) dynamic screen resolution shooting ability, to maintain a slender figure of 380 grams. Portability and high-definition perfect combination of performance, very suitable for the requirements of high-end fashion image users.

Disadvantages

Picture quality requirements of the effect of light or the high side, there is no memory card or body a little disappointed.
