New Canon 64GB Camcorder Vixia HF S11 and Canon G11 Touchscreen Camera

Topic:

Today Canon announced the launch of two new high-end products. The Vixia HF S11 Dual Flash Memory camcorder contains 64 GB of flash memory, which gives you up to 24 hours of actual high-def recording time. It also has SDHC support, so you can also record data directly to removable drives. This new Vixia also comes with an 8 megapixel camera, and features face detection and instant auto-focus.

Be forewarned though; at $1,499, this is definitely not a low-cost recording option.
