Attach an external microphone
to the mic terminal for
improved audio recording.
The AV mini-terminal doubles
as a headphone jack for audio
monitoring while shooting.
No more fiddling with the mode
dial. One press of this button
switches the camcorder between
camera mode and playback
mode. You can also use the multi-
scroll button to switch between
video and photo playback easily.
Not only does the memory card slot let you
increase shooting capacity, you can also
copy videos and photos to it for quick and
convenient transferring to a computer.
During video playback, the camcorder can
save up to 25 consecutive images from a
one-second clip of video — a useful feature
for storyboarding or promotional purposes.
The 211,000-dot TFT color LCD monitor
uses ultra-bright LEDs that achieved
higher brightness levels with reduced
power consumption. Select from three
brightness levels (Bright/Standard/
Dimmer) to improve visibility. The LEGRIA
HF S10 and LEGRIA HF S100’s screens also
have a special coating that makes them
more resistant to dirt and scratches.

With the powerful Super Range Optical Image Stabilizer,
you’ll never have to worry about blurred videos. By
shifting the lens to change the path of incoming light, the
effects of a wide range of shaking can be easily corrected.
This includes the gentle shaking that occurs while
handholding the camcorder, to high-speed vibrations
generated when shooting from a moving vehicle.
Closing the LCD monitor when the camcorder is in
camera mode puts it in standby. To start shooting again,
simply flip open the LCD monitor or turn the mode dial
to your desired mode.

Print photos directly to PictBridge-
compatible printers, or transfer videos
and photos to a computer easily
with this button. A USB 2.0 Hi-Speed
interface ensures quicker transfers of
videos and photos.
Dual Shot mode lets you alternate quickly between
shooting videos and photos easily. In this mode, you
can capture photos or videos with just one step.
Simply set the main dial to Dual Shot mode, and press
record when you want to shoot video, or press the
photo button when you want to capture a photo.
A HDMI interface allows you
to view your videos in all
their HD glory with a single
cable connection. When the
camcorder is connected to any
HDMI-compatible device via a
HDMI cable*, it will analyze the
unit’s capabilities and configure
it to best display your videos.
With the mini accessory shoe, you can
connect an optional video flash light to the
camcorder for additional lighting, or a stereo
microphone for improved audio recording.
The built-in video and flash lights
allow close-up shooting of subjects
under low-light conditions, and are
stored out of sight when not in use.
Despite the higher requirements of HD, precise focusing
is easily attained thanks to the Instant AF system.
Combining an external AF sensor with Canon’s autofocus
system, this hybrid AF system ensures accurate focus even
when shooting at night or with slow shutter speeds.
Lend your videos a cinematic look during recording with
the Cinema Mode feature. It uses the frame rate (PAL: 25P
/ NTSC: 24P) adopted by professional filmmakers to add
a touch of sophistication to your work. A CINE AE mode
is also available to give your videos a traditional celluloid
film appearance without changing the frame rate.
