Canon has taken its first step into the solid state category, a format that is expected to overtake both DVD and HDD in the coming years.

The Canon Vixia HF10 records high definition video in the AVCHD Codec format and records to memory cards and an internal 16GB of flash memory.

The Canon HF10 is officially tagged with the prefix "Vixia", Canon’s new name for their entire high definition line-up. The HDD-based HG10 and DVD-based HR10 will be carried over into the new year, but will be back-dated to incorporate the Vixia name.

The Canon Vixia HF10 is equipped with a 1/3.2-inch CMOS chip with a gross pixel count of 3.3 megapixels. Unlike previous AVCHD camcorders, the HF10 now shoots in “full HD,” 1920 x 1080 rather than 1440 x 1080. The maximum bit rate has been increased to 17Mbps.

The Canon Vixia HF10 capture stills up to 2048 x 1536, about 3.1 megapixels. The camcorder operate primarily by the joystick, and once again, feature a full complement of manual controls, including focus, exposure, Aperture and Shutter Priority modes, Program AE modes, white balance, and more.

The camcorder will ship with an Intelligent lithium ion battery which indicates the remaining life in minutes. Ports include HDMI and component for high definition output.

The added benefit of a 16GB internal flash memory drive in the HF10 is greatly increased recording time. The internal memory alone can hold up to 6 hours at the lowest quality.

The Canon Vixia HF10 retails for $1099 and will ship in late April.
