I was very close to purchasing the HF100 but then they announced the new line up featuring 24Mbps AVCHD and a bevy of other features. I'm wondering if it's even worth stepping up to the HF200 now.

My fiscal side says "Get the HF100"

My gadget geek side says "Get the HF200!!!"

Ahhh, the internal conflict :)]]>Feb 10th 2009 12:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/10/canons-ces-2009-vixia-camcorder-lineup-gets-priced-and-dated/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/10/canons-ces-2009-vixia-camcorder-lineup-gets-priced-and-dated/Feb 10th 2009 12:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/10/canons-ces-2009-vixia-camcorder-lineup-gets-priced-and-dated/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/10/canons-ces-2009-vixia-camcorder-lineup-gets-priced-and-dated/Feb 10th 2009 12:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/10/canons-ces-2009-vixia-camcorder-lineup-gets-priced-and-dated/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/10/canons-ces-2009-vixia-camcorder-lineup-gets-priced-and-dated/Feb 10th 2009 12:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/10/canons-ces-2009-vixia-camcorder-lineup-gets-priced-and-dated/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/10/canons-ces-2009-vixia-camcorder-lineup-gets-priced-and-dated/
But before people get their panties in a bunch over price, consider what you are getting: a palm-sized digital HD video recording device, and a good one at that. That's a whole lot of technology and convenience. OK, now let's time travel back a few years and recall that prices of camcorders in the 90's and early 2000's.

I'd love to see these at $500 as much as anyone, but I think these market values are justifiable. Shit, some people pay $500+ just for the privilege of PLAYING BACK Blu-ray discs!]]>Feb 10th 2009 12:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/10/canons-ces-2009-vixia-camcorder-lineup-gets-priced-and-dated/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/10/canons-ces-2009-vixia-camcorder-lineup-gets-priced-and-dated/Feb 10th 2009 12:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/10/canons-ces-2009-vixia-camcorder-lineup-gets-priced-and-dated/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/10/canons-ces-2009-vixia-camcorder-lineup-gets-priced-and-dated/Feb 10th 2009 2:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/10/canons-ces-2009-vixia-camcorder-lineup-gets-priced-and-dated/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/10/canons-ces-2009-vixia-camcorder-lineup-gets-priced-and-dated/Feb 10th 2009 3:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/10/canons-ces-2009-vixia-camcorder-lineup-gets-priced-and-dated/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/10/canons-ces-2009-vixia-camcorder-lineup-gets-priced-and-dated/Feb 10th 2009 3:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/10/canons-ces-2009-vixia-camcorder-lineup-gets-priced-and-dated/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/10/canons-ces-2009-vixia-camcorder-lineup-gets-priced-and-dated/Feb 11th 2009 1:04AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/10/canons-ces-2009-vixia-camcorder-lineup-gets-priced-and-dated/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/10/canons-ces-2009-vixia-camcorder-lineup-gets-priced-and-dated/Feb 11th 2009 1:06AM
