The new Vixia F10 features dual flash memory. It lets users record to an internal flash drive as well as a removable memory card, so they can record even when the camcorder doesn't have a memory card inserted. Flash memory camcorders can read and write data faster than other types of storage. Canon says the HF10 Dual Flash Memory camcorder can record up to 6 hours of video to a 16-gigabyte internal flash drive, or to a memory card.
The HF10 Dual Flash Memory and the HF100 Flash Memory camcorders, which will be available in late April, cost about $1,099 and $899, respectively.
