Look your best on the screen, all the time – 2 new flash memory camcorders from Canon

FS100
United Kingdom / Republic of Ireland, 07 January, 2008: Some camcorders and mobile phones make it easy to share your movie clips; others are better at getting great-looking results. But if you want the best of both worlds – to keep you and your friends looking their best, and to share your movies, fast – Canon’s new FS series camcorders are for you.

The stylish Canon Digital Video Camcorders FS11 and FS100 are the first Canon camcorders that store movies directly to memory cards – just like a digital camera. That means they’re smaller than ever before, perfect for slipping into a pocket or a bag. In fact, they’re so small that you can capture a movie in a snap – whether you’re out shopping with friends, or shooting the latest episode of your YouTube™ online diary. A great range of easy-to-use features, including a massive 45x Advanced Zoom, make it simple to just point and shoot, and with each camcorder sporting a Hi Speed USB connection, it couldn’t be simpler to get your clips onto a computer when you’re ready to upload.

As an added bonus, the FS11 features a Dual Flash Memory system. That means you don’t even need to find a memory card when you want to capture video snapshots: with extra internal flash memory, you can shoot whenever you like. The FS11 has 16Gb of memory, letting you store over 11 hours of video. And when the time comes to show the world, footage can be easily transferred to an SD card – simply switch on, shoot, then share.

Flash memory doesn’t just mean a camcorder you can slip in a pocket, either. It also means batteries last longer and your videos are kept safer – plus, there’s no need to mess around with discs or tapes.

The Canon FS11 and FS100 models are the camcorders you’ve been waiting for.
