    So i’m wondering weither to get a Sony or a Canon. Currently i have an HDRCX100 by sony and it’s alright for the little i use it but i’m progressively getting more into film and my need’s for a better camcorder are coming nearer and nearer. By searching i’m personally finding that Canon makes crisper more vibrant videos which is what i’m looking for and Sony does but way way way way more expensive.

    batoobah: Just got off the phone with Canon, the S stands for: Series…The HF 11 ony has 32 GB of memory, whereas the HF S11 has 64 GB. There are probably a few more uprades other than too. Sp basically the Sversions are a higher end model. Hope that helps.

    Canon all the way
    I’m about to buy one. However I have a question:
    What’s the difference between the HF11 and the HF S11? The first one costs $735 and the sencond one $1350, both in Amazon. However I can’t find the reason for the second one to cost almost twice as much!

    I don’t have a preference for either one of these camcorders, but the Canon is clearer and sharper compared to the Sony cam.
