Canon HF S200 review
Canon’s VIXIA HF S200 Flash Memory Camcorder, with two SD memory card
slots, offers Canon’s most sophisticated feature set to date -
blurring the line between consumer and professional. Canon’s
superlative proprietary imaging technologies help deliver video and 8.0
megapixel photos with incredible detail and lifelike colour. Touch &
Track allows you to achieve sharp focus and precise exposure for any
subject, simply by touching the generous 3.5" High Resolution (922,000
dot) Touch Panel LCD. Native 24p Mode perfectly matches the frame rate of
film. And 5.1-Channel Surround Sound ensures your audio complements the
stunning realism of your video.
Enhanced zebra pattern indicates ‘blown out’ or high brightness areas
to help you set the proper exposure.
Colour peaking enhances the edges of your subject to aid in focusing.
Custom key allows functions including exposure, focusing, assist functions,
mic volume level or AGC limits to be assigned to a custom key. Assist
functions make it possible to change zebra and peaking settings.
Colour bars with reference tone help to set proper colour and audio levels
when editing video.
Gain control allows you to lower the dB value to ensure that dark scenes
can be shot with the correct level of darkness.
Approximately 100% area display gives you a complete view in the LCD of the
scene being shot - no need to worry that areas in the margins are being
left out.
