Introduction
The HF S21 is a dual flash-memory camcorder, with a 64GB internal flash drive
and
two
SD memory card slots, allowing for continuous “Relay Recording.” This
means a very extended record time is possible. As well as a viewfinder, it features
a sharp 3.5” LCD touch screen where all menu selections and functions can be
adjusted.
Features like Touch & Track allow you to achieve sharp focus and precise exposure
for any subject, simply by touching the image of the subject on the LCD screen.
The camcorder has a max. resolution of 1920x1080 and can shoot multiple frame
rates including 60i, 30p, & 24p. The lens has a focal length of 6.4mm – 64mm and
a 4X optical zoom with a 200X digital zoom.
The touch screen menus allow users to setup manual focus, aperture, exposure,
and many other features. A user-assignable knob (see item 7 on page 2) allows
for manual adjustment of focus, exposure, mic level, and aperture.
