Comparing these two video's:

Canon Vixia HF S21:

Panasonic HDC-TM700:

The panasonic is more colorfull but also more blury...

The canon is a bit dull but sharper...

I saw a very depressing s11 canon movie from a misty beach which scares me a
bit :)

I like colorfull images... but maybe the sharpness of the canon is
ultimately more important
when trying to catch details, and I think catching details is very important
too.

Hmm...

I am now reading the full review of this canon model:

Hmm... this is quite surprising:

The canon seems to "rattle" which could be a real sound issue according to
the reviewer:

oh-oh !

Seems both camcorders not really good for sound purposes ?!

I have an idea for these camcorders:

The idea is:

"Use two batteries/slots".

Then the user can pull out the empty battery and continue with the full
one...

Meanwhile the empty one can be charged... and then plugged in back later...

At least this would allow somewhat continous filming...

If a helper is nearby he/she could take care of it... and the filmer could
continue ;) :)

Bye,
Skybuck.

Hmm interesting question:

Can a thunder flash + a magnifieing glass actually burn an ant ? ;)
