  By Lori Grunin

  Review summary: The HF10 is Canon's first flash-based Full HD AVCHD camcorder and it looks set to make a big impression.
  
  Verdict: Without a doubt, the HF10 is the best AVCHD camcorder yet produced by any manufacturer. It's not perfect in every respect, but it ticks more than enough boxes to be highly desirable as a serious video tool or point-and-shoot camcorder companion. With ...

  First Look: Canon HF10
  By Daniel Long

  Canon HF10
  By David Kender
  
  Review summary: Canon HF10 carries with it high expectations based on the outstanding performance of its 2007 predecessors, such as the HV20 and HG10. Canon redesigned the imaging chip this time around, making it smaller and more densely packed with pixels (1/3.2 ...
  
  Verdict: In bright light performance, the HF10 is nearly indistinguishable from the award-winning HV20, and the resolution score actually improves. Canon finally managed to craft an AVCHD camcorder that does not produce objectionable amounts of compression ...
