TestSeek's Expert Reviews Summary   

TThe FS100 model camcorder by Canon is an SD based one that delivers what one expects of this kind. It is one among the entry stage models and boasts of a 37x optical zoom.

It is loaded with a variety of features and easy to handle. These features make it suited even for beginners and also casual users.

The use of flash memory makes the camcorder much smaller and sounds lesser compared to other models. Another major advantage is the extended battery life. The reviewers found that at least a 4 GB SD card will be required along with the camcorder to make the purchase worthwhile.

An external microphone input is present in this device that makes recording of high quality possible. The manual controls are found to be ideal. The videos recorded appear a bit softer than it is intended to be. The videos shot outdoors look much better than those in indoors.

The editors liked

  • It is compact
  • Presence of mic input
  • stylish design

The editors didn't like

  • Lack of optical image stabilization
  • Wind filter is found to be ineffective
  • absence of head phone jack
  • poor image or video quality

TestSeek's Conclusion

The budget prizing at $277 and modest functions makes this suitable for beginners and non professionals. But reviewers disagree to the claim that it delivers in accordance to its prize tag. Many of them were disappointed with the performance delivered by this gadget. On the whole it depends on the consumer to decide between.

  • Abstract:  Nur noch ein gutes Pfund bringt Canons ultrakompakte Videokamera FS100 auf die Waage. Trotzdem hat das Handlichkeitswunder ein Zoomobjektiv, das eine Brennweiten-Spanne mit dem Faktor 37 überstreicht - sogar in Stadien sind damit Nahaufnahmen in hoher ...

  • Compacité et légèreté, enregistrement sur cartes SD, zoom puissant, prix.
  • Pas de carte mémoire fournie, qualité d’image.

  • Abstract:  Fremtiden er i høj opløsning (HD) – det gælder både film og tv, og når familien skal filmes med videokamera. Problemet er, at et kamera med HD-opløsning er dyrt, og derudover fylder HD-optagelser op til fem gange mere end ved standardopløsning. Er man ...
