Superb Shooting Control
Variable Zoom Speed Control
Another sure sign of amateur video is the unsteady zoom shot. But with the VIXIA HF100’s zoom
control, you simply select one of the four zoom speeds (three pre-set, one variable) for smooth,
steady, professional looking zooms.
Level and Grid Markers
With the Level Marker feature, it’s easy to keep your
camera level for more professional looking video.
Line up any horizontal lines in your shot -- such as
the horizon -- to the marker and you can be sure your
camcorder is level.
The VIXIA HF100’s Grid Marker feature lets you
compose your shot accurately, according to the grid
in your view
fi
nder. You can even choose from two
different colors for the grid. This ensures that you see
the grid, no matter what the background color of your shot is.
Program AE Mode
For the best exposure for various situations, the VIXIA HF100’s Program AE mode will automatically
adjust the settings to compensate for the conditions and subject. Choose from Portrait, Sports, Night,
Snow, Beach, Sunset, Spotlight and Fireworks. You won’t have to guess if you’re capturing all the
action just the way you want it, the VIXIA HF100 will do it for you.
Quick Start
Never miss a quickly unfolding shot again. Push the Quick Start button between shots
-it places the VIXIA HF100 in standby mode. When the action starts, push the Quick
Start button again to begin recording in less than one second. You’ll also help extend
your battery life over leaving the camcorder in regular recording mode.
