  Canon Vixia HF100 Camcorder Review - Canon Flash Memory
  By David Kender
  
  Review summary: The Canon HF100 ($899 MSRP) comes from a good pedigree. It's nearly identical to the Canon HF10, which received our seal of approval earlier this year. The HF100 offers all the same image quality, manual controls, and form factor, but loses the 16GB ...

  Canon HF100
  By Colin Barrett
  
  Review summary: Unlike the excellent Canon HG10, a so-called Hybrid camcorder released towards the end of last year that records high-definition AVCHD clips to either SD cards or an internal hard disk, the Canon HF100 and its HF10 sibling have no moving parts ...
  
  Verdict: Not only does the Canon HF100 handle superbly, but its clever ergonomics make it a joy to use. The ability to connect external mics (either via the jack or accessory hotshoe) is a major boon, as is its comprehensive output connectivity by way of HDMI, ...

  SimplyDV Review: Canon HF100 AVCHD Camcorder
  By CB
  
  Review summary: Not just a truly solid-state camcorder but one that produces superb quality high definition video and has all the inputs and outputs we like to see on a serious camcorder. Can anything beat the Canon HF100?
  
  Verdict: Every so often we receive a camcorder for review which knocks us out from the moment it's removed from the box. We'd already seen advance pre-production samples at an invitation-only Canon preview back in February 2008 in London and although it wasn't ...

  Canon HF100
  By Lori Grunin
  
  Review summary: Aside from price, there are only a few minor differences between the Canon HF100 and its brother, the HF10. Cosmetically, the HF100 is a sleek, matte-grey instead of black. Plus, it lacks the HF10's internal memory, relying on SDHC cards. Still, it ...
  
  Pros: Excellent video quality ; fast focus ; compact, attractive and comfortable design
  
  Cons: Wind filter not as dependable as previous Canon models ; manual focus pretty useless
  
  Verdict: One of a pair of Canon's first flash-based camcorders, the Canon HF100 delivers excellent HD video quality and performance in a tiny package
