Okay camera...

I have read the reviews and the warnings about sound. Some people say the sound is great, others say it's horrid. Well, I've actually returned this camera. Wish I had listened to the warnings.
Pros - It was easy to setup and use. I really liked the features and that it had a mic jack. Nice and compact.
Cons - I do have a couple of complaints. The sound quality isn't that great. You can hear ambient noise in the background all the time like a slight humming noise. Very distracting. It's like it hears too much! (if that makes sense) It picks up EVERY little sound. I taped something at our church and plugged our mixer into the camera so it could hear Pastor through his mic. That was a nightmare! I would've been better of without the mic. I uploaded it to my computer and all I could hear was a HUGE, LOUD buzzing. I couldn't hear a thing he said. The other thing that is really bad is the still picture feature. I have an LG Rhythm cell phone and it takes better pictures than this camcorder does. The video picture is fine, but for stills - I was really shocked at how poor the quality was. I expected a much better product from Canon.
I suppose if all you're doing is taping the children playing loudly, this camera would be okay. If you're taping recitals, your own mini movie, or if you bought it because it had a still picture option, I'd pass. |
It's really small

It's like your holding a regular camera. It's unbelievably small and works GREAT!!!
But the size is what gets me - fits in the palm of my hand literally. |
A Very Good Value

| I recently purchased the FS-11 and have been using it for about a week now. I've seen good reviews and bad reviews on this little camera but my view is that it a great value. I have not experienced any of the problems reported in the 'bad' reviews. It's small and easy to use but it does help to scan through the manual to really get an understanding of it's capabilities. It's full featured but has an 'easy' button or you can select any number of aperture, shutter or white balance settings. It has a great zoom and the image stabalization works well. As with any camera, especially when using extreme 2,000X zoom, you'll get better video if you put it on a tripod. By accident I found the 2,000X zoom works quite well as a macro lens. The packaged software that comes with the camera is not user friendly - at first. However after scanning through the software guide I was quickly able to produce and edit a video with titles, music and transitions while chopping out some scenes I didn't want. I've used $30,000 video cameras as well as studio floor cameras and I am very pleased with this purchase. I would certainly recommend it. |

My name is Sara and I'm extremely picky when it comes to buying camcorders. I bought this about a year ago and love it. It has great video quality and a ton of features. It's sound is awesome, plus you can plug in a microphone if you want to. It can record hours of video in it's 16 gb internal memory and I would buy it again. You can also choose how high of quality you want it to be. It allow sd memory cards and internal memory.
I wouldn't ever return it. It's a great deal, a great camera, and a great tool. I studied cameras for hours and found this one. It is definitely worth every cent. |
Comparing different Canon FS models

After looking over the various models of Canon FS series camcorders, the Canon FS 11 appears to be one of the best. Coming with 16 GB of internal memory, this camera will record up to 10 hours and 25 minutes of video (LP - 3 mbps). By comparing to other top models on the Canon website, this model is arguably the best model that Canon makes.
