Canon VIXIA HF S200 Flash Memory Camcorder Review
The new Canon VIXIA HF S200 review on the Canon VIXIA HF S200 Flash Memory Camcorder features like native 24p Full HD recording, optical image stabilization,a 3.5″ High Resolution Touch Panel LCD Screen which provides a large, expansive area for fast and easy menu navigation right at your fingertips. Boasting a resolution of 922,000 dots, the screen delivers exceptional detail and brilliant color for more accurate and enjoyable viewing. You’ll also have Touch & Track, which allows you to get precise focus and exposure on any subject – whether it’s people, vehicles, etc. by selecting your choice right on the touch panel LCD. To add to its versatile capabilities, the VIXIA HF S200 also features a viewfinder for use in extreme bright light situations.
The Canon Exclusive 1/2.6″ 8.59-megapixel Full HD CMOS Image Sensor captures video at 1920 x 1080 resolution and photos with astonishing detail, while Canon’s Exclusive DIGIC DV III Image Processor provides the ultimate in color and imaging performance, with enhanced reproduction of difficult to capture purple and blue tones. Exceptionally lifelike tone and detail are captured thanks to 24Mbps Recording, which offers the highest bit rate in AVCHD. Even when shooting in extended telephoto range, the VIXIA HF S200′s built-in 1.7x Digital Tele-converter retains excellent image quality. The VIXIA HF S200 not only captures images in Full HD, but records and outputs at 1920 x 1080 as well, so you get Full HD, from lens to screen.
VIXIA HF S200 features Canon’s proprietary Dynamic SuperRange Optical Image Stabilization which provides continuous adjustment throughout the entire zoom range to correct a broad range of motion. Extra compensation is applied at wide-angle focal lengths to eliminate unwanted shaking common when walking while shooting. Together with the latest development, Powered IS, you’ll find an even higher level of compensation for subtle hand movement at the telephoto end of the zoom range. And it’s easy to engage Powered IS. Simply press or hold the Powered IS button on the touch panel LCD.
The VIXIA HF S200 camcorder features Canon’s revolutionary Instant AF focusing system which offers a dramatic improvement in auto focus speed and accuracy (compared to traditional auto focus systems). The Instant AF feature uses an external sensor, in combination with Canon’s auto focus system, to help significantly decrease the time it takes to find focus, even in low light conditions. This system achieves focus instantaneously, reducing focus “hunting.” The benefits of Instant AF are especially seen in high brightness and night shooting situations. With Instant AF, it’s possible to capture fast, accurate focusing, even when following a moving subject.
the VIXIA HF S200 also features Focus Assist. This helps in capturing your subject in razor-sharp focus. It works by providing a 2x magnification of your subject (when you start recording, this assistance is automatically cancelled). This is a feature normally found in professional broadcast-quality cameras. Another sophisticated control available on the VIXIA HF S200 is color peaking, which enhances the edges of your subject to aid in focusing.
