I've had this camera for several months now, and used it a lot. I like it. It's just what I expected; an inexpensive (not cheap!), easy-to-use video camera. Okay, so it doesn't do theater-quality image or surround sound, but read the specs, people. It does exactly as advertised, and does it with a minimum of fuss and bother.
All right, yeah, the packaged software ain't that great. Tell me a camcorder that comes with software that is worth a flip, especially in this price range! Just download the videos, change the file name extension to mpg, and you're good to go! Any decent video editing software can easily deal with it then.
Oh - and for those who complained about the quality of the stills: excuse me, but it is a video camera! Taking stills with a video camera is just for those times when you can't take your 15 megapixel still camera with you. Don't expect a video camera to take stills that can be blown up to poster size and still look good!

So far so good. Takes good clear video and great sound. The enclosed software doesn't work on Mac or Microsoft computers. Just take the card out and use a card reader to get the movies on your computer. (The card I have is an 8 gig, class 6 card) Video files not compatabile with my Mac, however, a freeware converter plays the files fine. The price is right and easy to use. If you don't have a video camera ... get one.

Wow, when I recharged this camcorder I turned it on, duh. I went to see how much memory was left, to find 2 videos on it already. The first video was on a real encounter with a Mammoth, the second on the other hand was a little disturbing...I will not mention it on this website. If you truly want to know email me and ask...bob_1345@gmail.com *PLEASE NOTE I WON'T GET BACK TO YOU RIGHT AWAY* This camera zooms in and out so I cant video squat...Where does my money go for these things?!?

I love the camers but I do not understand how to get my videos off. I have installed the software and it still is hard. I still have not got my videos off. I need help with that.

Bought mine for the family for Christmas '08. We've taken video of sunrises at the beach, more than a hundred pictures and first steps of my first grandchild. Easy to operate. Easy to transfer to PC. Let your kids take all the pictures they want.
A great deal!!

Quality of recording is extremely poor indoors and get's worse as indoor lighting becomes less. I returned this. I originally bought this because of all the good reviews on Tigerdirect...... however, once I had quality concerns, I then googled reviews on the internet and found confirmations that this does a horrible recording job indoors. I would not recommend this unit to anyone and Canon is clearing them out discontinued.

Bought this Canon FS100 camcorder about 3 weeks ago and it is terrific, lots of features. Effortless transfers to my computer, handles a 16 GB card with no problems. Price is exceptional and fast delivery from Tiger. Still pictures are better than expected.

Excellent Standard def camcorder!!! LOOOONG battery life, and I can record almost 2 hours at the highest quality setting with an 8GB SDHC card. You can import video to iMovie '09 on the Mac very easily. I bought two of these for my church and we will be using them to record sermon video for the web.

This is a compact nice looking camcorder. The videos look great but the still images are not very clear at all. What is worse is that I just received this a couple of weeks ago and it does not charge anymore with the included charger. Canon told me to ship it to them for service.

This camera is awesome. My reps at oddbodd.com need to take videos every day for the businesses we deal with. It has shown to be the easiest to learn to use, the best quality without going to HD and the easiest to transfer to a computer and edit the files. Like any camera of this size or quality, I recommend a wireless mic too, especially if you are doing presentations or for business use. For the price, you cannot beat it either.
