I was able to buy the Canon FS10 for 8.00 as a referb from the manufacturer. I wanted a flash memory camera to replace my Sony Handycam DV.
Benefits: 1. No moving parts in the FS10 …DV tapes are a pain, and hard drive camcorders sound worse than laptop computers, which get destroyed if you use them on your “lap” …the FS10 flash memory is great–nothing moves–so nothing breaks. 8 gig on board and 8 more only cost .00. I bought the Trancend SDHC 8 gig class (6)…That looked like the best card for the money. The “class (6)” is a reasonably fast speed. I wouldn’t use less, and you probably would be wasting money with a higher speed card with the FS10, as you probably wouldn’t note a difference in performance. Bottom line: it’s 100 times faster than DV Capture. Note: the camera does not automatically switch from internal memory to the card, you must do this manually. Be aware of your shooting time in relation to the quality of recording selected. The highest quality XP, lasts just under 2 hours for each 8 gigs, much longer in the lower quality settings.

I’ve had this camera for just about one year now and have found it more than adequate for my needs. Rather than carry around a larger camera (which I wouldn’t use) this Panny fits nicely in a shirt pocket. As a result I have shot tons of video of my family ice fishing, the kids on gradeschool field trips, and my own work-related travels that I know I simply would never had shot with a larger camera. Despite what some say here, we’ve found the video quality just fine– whether watching on a 20″ computer monitor or on a 52″ plasma HDTV. Sure, it’s not HD quality, but it’s at least as good as the 15 years of 8mm video we have converted to digital (usually better) and it’s much more convenient. Third-party batteries are cheap (well under ) and charge quickly. SDHC cards are also cheap now, so buy an extra battery and a couple of 8-16 gig cards and you’ll end up with more video than you know what to do with. Read more...

We got this camera for our 10 year old son so he can record his skateboarding and post it to YouTube and other web sites and it’s GREAT! It’s very easy for him to use and the size is perfect. I would highly recommend this camera to anyone who is looking for ease of use. The only downside is the memory is not very big. It’s best used for short clips. Read more...
