Abstract: The HF10 is an interesting player in Canon\'s lineup and in my opinion represents the future of where digital camcorders are going. Forget DVD or hard disk camcorders. Video tape is an annoyance compared to what you get with 16GB of built in memory..

Excellent video quality; fast focus; compact, attractive, and comfortable design.
Wind filter not as dependable as previous Canon models; manual focus pretty useless.
Canons first flash-based camcorder, the Canon Vixia HF10, delivers excellent HD video quality and performance in a tiny package.

When it comes to AVCHD removable flash memory camcorders, the HF10 is completely unmatched. It offers superior video performance, better build quality and more modes and features than any of its high-def rivals. Highly recommended.
