Canon has brought out the heavy baseball bat to play.  They are bringing two new high definition camcorders to their already strong AVCHD lineup.  These new models are the Canon Vixia HF S10 and the Vixia HF S100.  The S10 gives 32MB of onboard flash memory and the S100 uses SD memory cards only.  Both cameras have a 1/2.6″ CMOS chip capable of capturing 8.59 megapixels.  They capture 8MP native still images.  They shoot in native 24P mode and face detection capable of tracking up to 32 faces!  People who have seen video from it say it is hard to tell much difference between them and the Canon XH-A1 pro camera!  The lens has a fat 58mm thread size so the optic should be like that of the GL-2.  Canon says they are shipping in February.  We can’t wait!
