by admin on Apr.10, 2009, under Bisnis Online
Although not the only players in the camcorder market , but Canon is still more considered. And as if do not want to lag with other manufacturers, Canon back in the release of new products that give their name LEGRIA. One of five new products that offered is the Canon LEGRIA HF S10.
As can be predicted, Canon LEGRIA HF S10 uses flash-based media store and is able to record video in high definition quality. Canon install the default memory of 32GB that can still be improved by installing more external memory card SDHC type. The default memory is still possible to record a video for three hours in a maximum quality.
But the most interesting is the sensor. It seems that Canon did not want to lose out with the Panasonic that install three sensors measuring 1 / 4 inches on their high definition camcorder product , and combined CMOS sensor size 1 / 2, 6 with a 8.59 megapixel resolution in this HF S10. When used for recording video, the camcorder will use approximately 6.01 megapixel resolution and a new resolution will use the maximum recording time to take the form of images.
With the specification offered, consumers expect certain features that are interesting. And it is understood that Canon provides advanced features that can be accessed through the joystick on the left side of the LCD screen. One of which is quite interesting is a feature called digital telephoto. This feature utilizes the excess resolution sensors to make digital zooming without using interpolation technique.
But despite offering new features, Canon LEGRIA HF S10 is also still a defect of the product before. For example, there is no lens ring to set the focus manually. Concerning the quality of the recordings, Canon LEGRIA HF S10 is indeed reliable. The results of recording seen clear and sharp even though the light began to dim conditions.
In normal lighting conditions, Canon LEGRIA HF S10 almost can not be distinguished with the competitors, Panasonic HDC-HS300. However, in the dim light conditions, Canon uses a sensor seems the approach is superior from Panasonic that uses three sensors. Not surprising if Trusted Reviews recommend this camcorder even though they had complained about the selling price is high enough. Canon release of this product 1300 Pounds Sterling on the Price.
