Stunning Digital Photography

The VIXIA HF100 has many advanced photo features which make it a camera that rivals other state- of-the-art digital cameras. You get the best of both video and photos.

3.1 Megapixel Photos

The same Canon exclusive CMOS image sensor that ensures sharp, vivid HD video also gives you brilliant digital photographs. Like the CMOS image sensors in Canon’s EOS Series digital SLR cameras, the VIXIA HF100’s image sensor results in outstanding digital photographs. It gives an impressive resolution of 3.1 Megapixel for sharp, crisp still images.

Canon DIGIC DV II Image Processor

Canon’s exclusive DIGIC DV II Image Processor features improved continuous shooting of digital photographs with the VIXIA HF100. You can shoot 5 (3.1 Megapixel) still images per second, and enjoy faster processing of your images to your memory card (1.4x normal card; 2.5x Hi Speed card).

Focus Features

Auto Intelligent Auto Focus (AiAF) ensures sharp images and gives creative flexibility. Even when your subject isn’t in the center of the frame, the VIXIA HF100’s 9 Point AiAF will automatically select from 9 metering frames on the screen to help bring images into sharp focus.

ince it is critical to achieve very sharp focus when shooting in High

Definition, the VIXIA HF100 camcorder features Canon’s revolutionary and exclusive Instant AF focusing system. It offers a dramatic improvement

in auto focus speed and accuracy (compared to traditional auto focus systems). The Instant AF feature uses an external sensor, in combination

with Canon’s auto focus system, to help significantly decrease the time it takes to find focus, even in low light conditions. This new system achieves focus instantaneously, reducing focus “hunting.” The benefits of Instant AF are especially seen in high brightness, and night shooting situations. It’s even possible to capture fast, accurate focusing, even when following a moving subject.

And because a properly focused subject is more critical than ever with HD, the VIXIA HF100 also features Focus Assist. This helps in capturing your subject in razor sharp focus. (When you start recording, this assistance is automatically cancelled.)
