Superb Shooting Control

Variable Zoom Speed Control

Another sure sign of amateur video is the unsteady zoom shot. But with the VIXIA HF100’s zoom control, you simply select one of the four zoom speeds (three pre-set, one variable) for smooth, steady, professional looking zooms.

Level and Grid Markers

With the Level Marker feature, it’s easy to keep your camera level for more professional looking video. Line up any horizontal lines in your shot -- such as the horizon -- to the marker and you can be sure your camcorder is level.

The VIXIA HF100’s Grid Marker feature lets you compose your shot accurately, according to the grid in your viewfinder. You can even choose from two different colors for the grid. This ensures that you see

the grid, no matter what the background color of your shot is.

Program AE Mode

For the best exposure for various situations, the VIXIA HF100’s Program AE mode will automatically adjust the settings to compensate for the conditions and subject. Choose from Portrait, Sports, Night, Snow, Beach, Sunset, Spotlight and Fireworks. You won’t have to guess if you’re capturing all the action just the way you want it, the VIXIA HF100 will do it for you.

Quick Start

Never miss a quickly unfolding shot again. Push the Quick Start button between shots -it places the VIXIA HF100 in standby mode. When the action starts, push the Quick Start button again to begin recording in less than one second. You’ll also help extend your battery life over leaving the camcorder in regular recording mode.
