Canon FS100 Digital Camcorder (45 x Advanced Zoom With 2.7" Widescreen Colour LCD)I purchased the FS100 two months ago to replace an earlier Canon owned for seven trouble free years. Though a little dubious about the `New' technology without tapes I took the plunge. br /The results from this pocket size camera have been delight.Vidio footage is crisp and clear. Colours are natural very good Easy mode and the manual selection on the whole are very useful. The night selection is the most disappointing. br /Battery life is very good, once you have stopped frequently swapping modes and reviewing your work, charging is relatively quick with the supplied charger. br /The 45x zoom is very good though I would recommend support at the upper end. br /A handy little remote control is also a very helpful item. br /Still pictures are acceptable even at its relatively low pixel rating. I found the ability to switch from video to still at any time a great feature. br /So far so good it saves me carrying two cameras and get good results from this pocket br /sized gem. br /At the price I would highly recommend. br / br /

After using for 2 months on various family holidays etc I have now had time to download the result to my pc. The results are generally very good, albeit a bit grainy in low light. The problem I have with this camera is the very low resolution of still photographs. In fact don't bother they are rubbish. As such it meant I had to carry 2 cameras around. There lies the problem. My canon G8 takes excellent still photographs at 10 megapixels. and two video resolutions are included. The results of which are excellent but not widescreen. So my advice is buy the new canon G9 which is a far better still camera (chalk cheese) but has widescreen video as well. All for around 300. br /My other problem with the f100 is the lack of a decent software suite. In fact virtually nothing but a photo organiser and the download driver for your pc. br /On a positive note the 45x optical zoom is excellent.

Don'tt get the 208 battery or its charger- they're not for the FS100! br / br /You need the BP-808 battery and the CG-800E charger. I've just realised and have contacted Amazon to get it sorted out.
