  • Canon LEGRIA HF G10 Handheld camcorder 2.37 MP CMOS Full HD Black :

    Designed to match the creative passion of experienced videographers, the LEGRIA HF G10 features professional quality Canon components and extensive manual controls for exceptional HD movies.

    30.4mm Wide-angle HD Video lens
    Canon’s professional HD Video lens technology delivers a superb 30.4mm, F1.8 lens with a smooth, 10x optical zoom, and 8-Blade iris for natural looking de-focus effects.

    Canon HD CMOS Pro Sensor
    A 2.07 MP HD CMOS Pro sensor - designed and made for professional camcorders - captures Full HD at native 1920x1080 resolution. The light gathering area of the pixels is 160% greater than a conventional CMOS, for wider dynamic range and better low-light performance.

    Professional audio
    The new, high sensitivity built-in microphone has 4 directionality modes to ensure you capture more of the sound you want and an audio equaliser for the perfect tone. A zoom mic option is available and, when used with an external mic, the 2 sources can be mixed in camera. Optional Canon 5.1 Surround and Wireless mics are also available.

    32GB memory plus 2x SDXC slots
    Full HD AVCHD video is recorded at up to 24mbps to 32GB built-in flash memory – for over 12 hours recording. Dual SDXC card slots and Relay Recording ensure enough capacity for the most ambitious movie projects.

    Full creative control
    A lens focus ring gives you precise control of manual focussing, while an assignable Control Dial allows control of functions such as aperture, shutter speed and gain. Professional shooting assist functions include Magnification, Peaking and Zebras.

    High-resolution 8.8cm Touch-screen
    A high-resolution 920k dot, 8.8cm Touch-screen LCD is optimised for shooting in HD and provides 100% coverage of the scene. A retractable, colour viewfinder adds to your shot-framing options.

    Instant AF; Face Detection
    Instant AF provides fast and accurate focussing for pin-sharp HD quality. Face Detection automatically optimises camcorder settings for perfectly focussed and exposed people shots.

    Optical Image Stabiliser
    An advanced Optical Image Stabiliser ensures smooth, steady video every time. Dynamic mode stabilises shots on the move, while Powered IS delivers steady telephoto shots.

    Creative Cinematic Filters
    Inspire your creativity with built-in Cinema-Look Filters. Select from 8 adjustable colour-grading filters to capture the perfect looking movie scene. Shoot progressively at 25 full frames per second for a more cinematic feel.

    Easy sharing and uploading
    In-camera HD-SD conversion lets you down-convert your movies to standard definition, ready for uploading and sharing via the web.

The Canon HF10 and HF100 were the cream of the premium camcorder crop a few years back, but since then the company's top-end models have been priced too far beyond the competition. The LEGRIA HF G10 costs a little over £1,000, so it's still more expensive...

The HF G10 is Canon's top-of-the-range camcorder, and the most expensive we've seen of this year's crop. It takes a different approach to capturing digital video to Panasonic's high-end HDC-SD900 - instead of separate 1/4.1in sensors for red, green and...

  • The Canon LEGRIA HF G10’s build is made of tough plastic that is much stronger than that may sound. The LEGRIA HF G10 is a heavy duty camcorder that you can feel safe lugging around. The manual focus ring feels very professional and gives you the ultimate control over your shots while still being easy to use. For more serious filmmakers a handy microphone input helps to deliver impressive audio.
  • A price of around £1,200 might be a little steep, and compared the very best in class there are camcorders out there that offer slightly more detail for the price. And its 10x optical zoom is a tad too limiting to offer ultimate shooting flexibility, and unless you purchase an adapter, you won’t be able to add your own standard video light or camcorder as the accessory shoe is Canon’s S Mini Adva...
  • Despite its high price, the Canon LEGRIA HF G10 is a great camcorder for amateur movie makers and camcorder aficionados. Its performance is fantastic with little to no sign of grain or noise in bright and low light conditions. It is also easy to use...

This 1080p camcorder snaps still photos at a measly 2.07MP. That’s a good thing in this case. Where video cameras that boast 12 MP-plus stills have to cram pixels onto their sensors to get those bigger numbers, the Vixia opted for a CMOS sensor with pi...
