Features

• English/Japanese LCD menu
  Default menu is in Japanese but we will switch the display settings to English before we ship out.
• Flash Memory
  The VIXIA HF S21 can record up to 24 hours of the most crisp, high definition video possible, with a 64GB internal flash drive. It is also equipped with two SD memory card slots. With elay ecording, the camcorder automatically switches video recording from the internal drive to the next available SD memory card when the memory becomes full. It will be easier than ever to capture that late game play or the exact moment those first steps are taken.
• Stunning Image Quality
  A Genuine Canon 10x HD Video Lens delivers unsurpassed image quality and a smooth background for professional-looking results. The Canon Exclusive 1/2.6" 8.59-megapixel Full HD CMOS Image Sensor captures video at 1920 x 1080 resolution and photos with astonishing detail, while Canon's Exclusive DIGIC DV III Image Processor provides the ultimate in color and imaging performance, with enhanced reproduction of difficult to capture purple and blue tones. Exceptionally lifelike tone and detail are captured thanks to 24Mbps ecording, which offers the highest bit rate in AVCHD. Even when shooting in extended telephoto range, the VIXIA HF S21's built-in 1.7x Digital Tele-converter retains excellent image quality. The VIXIA HF S21 not only captures images in Full HD, but records and outputs at 1920 x 1080 as well, so you get Full HD, from lens to screen.
• Dynamic Superange Optical Image Stabilization with Powered IS
  VIXIA HF S21 features Canon's proprietary Dynamic Superange Optical Image Stabilization which provides continuous adjustment throughout the entire zoom range to correct a broad range of motion. Extra compensation is applied at wide-angle focal lengths to eliminate unwanted shaking common when walking while shooting. Together with the latest development, Powered IS, you'll find an even higher level of compensation for subtle hand movement at the telephoto end of the zoom range. And it's easy to engage Powered IS. Simply press or hold the Powered IS button on the touch panel LCD.
• Instant AF
  The VIXIA HF S21 camcorder features Canon's revolutionary Instant AF focusing system which 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 system achieves focus instantaneously, reducing focus "hunting." The benefits of Instant AF are especially seen in high brightness and night shooting situations. With Instant AF, it's possible to capture fast, accurate focusing, even when following a moving subject.
• 3.5" High esolution Touch Panel LCD Screen
  Features a 3.5" High esolution Touch Panel LCD Screen which provides a large, expansive area for fast and easy menu navigation right at your fingertips. Boasting a resolution of 922,000 dots, the screen delivers exceptional detail and brilliant color for more accurate and enjoyable viewing.
• Smart Auto
  Smart Auto makes shooting great video easier than ever before. Using the power of Canon's DIGIC DV III Image Processor, the VIXIA HF S21 intelligently detects and analyzes faces, brightness, color, distance, and movement, then automatically selects the best settings for the scene. Whether you are capturing a sunset, a day at the beach, or a fast-paced soccer game, Smart Auto delivers exceptionally accurate results.
• Touch & Track
  Touch & Track delivers precise focus and exposure on any subject - people, pets, vehicles and more. Simply select your point of interest on the touch panel LCD, and you will have your subject in sharp focus, regardless of where in the frame it moves during the shot and, the exposure will be perfectly adjusted for subject and conditions.
• Genuine Canon Face Detection
  The same high quality Face Detection technology used in Canon digital cameras is available in Canon high definition camcorders. Up to 35 faces can be tracked automatically, ensuring razor-sharp focus and natural, accurate exposure. Of the faces tracked, 9 detection frames can be displayed at one time.
• Advanced Video Snapshot
  Advanced Video Snapshot allows you to capture the highlights of a once in a lifetime trip or a family milestone with the same ease as taking photos. Simply record a series of short video clips or select your favorite clips while in Playback Mode and blend in your favorite background music to create an exciting movie that will grab everyone's attention. This version of Advanced Video Snapshot allows selectable recording times of 2, 4, or 8 seconds. Additionally, audio from an external source, such as an MP3 player, can be played along with the Snapshot movie and playback can be controlled from that source.
• Easy Web Sharing
  HD-to-SD Downconversion allows you to convert recorded high definition video to standard definition files while safely preserving the original HD video. These standard definition files make it even more convenient to edit, share video online, or create a DVD. The downconverted video can be transferred to your computer via traditional methods - i.e. USB connection, card slot - or wirelessly to sharing sites with an Eye-Fi SD memory card.
• 8.0 Megapixel Camera
  Since Canon is acknowledged as a world leading maker of digital cameras, it's not surprising that the VIXIA HF S21, in addition to being a brilliant camcorder, is also a superb 8.0 megapixel digital camera. Once again, Canon delivers features and technology that advance convenience and capability. The VIXIA HF S21's Dual Shot makes it easier than ever to capture both video and photos. You'll even be able to shoot 6.0 megapixel photos while shooting video at the same time with Simultaneous Photo ecording.
• Native 24p Mode / 24p Cinema Mode / 30p Frame Mode
  The VIXIA HF S21 offers selectable frame rates to match both your lifestyle and creative vision. Native 24p Mode allows 24 frames per second exactly the same capture rate as film to be captured and recorded. This is a big advantage for serious filmmaking work enabling you to achieve the ultimate cinematic experience.
• Terminals
  To maximize the usefulness and versatility of the VIXIA HF S21, you'll find a range of terminals to extend the capabilities of your camcorder. A built-in remote control terminal (compatible with LANC protocol) provides an easy connection to both Canon and third-party wired remote controllers. The Mini Advanced Accessory Shoe allows you to attach optional Canon accessories such as the VL-5 Video Light, DM-100 Directional Stereo Microphone, or SM-V1 5.1-Channel Surround Microphone. Easy, one-cable connectivity to your HDTV is yours through the VIXIA HF S21's HDMI Terminal which also supports CEC and x.v.Color.

• This product may take a week or more to ship after we receive the order.
• The format on Japanese camcorders is NTSC(The same as in the states). Other regions such as Europe use PAL. This does not affect viewing on PCs and most TVs and DVDs can playback both NTSC and Pal. However, you probably will not be able to directly plug in your camcorder to a PAL TV set to view NTSC footage. (Again, playback shouldn't be a problem for most TV sets but you should check first. Some old TV sets will not support NTSC even in playback.)
• The AC adapter for this product is 100-240V. The plug type will be Type A (which is the standard for many countries including the US and Japan. If your country has a different plug type you can purchase an adapter here.
• Please note that the video importing software packaged with this product (Pixela ImageMixer 3SE) can be installed in English, but is only available for Windows systems. It's really not a great piece of software, however, and you're not really missing out. If you are enthusiastic about video editing we recommend you try a commercial package such as Corel Video Studio Pro or Cyber Link Power Director. (Please double check their website to see which versions are compatible with your AVCHD camcorder. If you're a Mac user you can most likely use iMovie to import and edit footage without any problems. (But again, please check the specifications of your iMovie version to make sure it is compatible with this camcorder)
