The Canon VIXIA HF S200 is the 2010 update to the VIXIA HF S100. It has the same 10x optical zoom lens and sensor that can record up to 6.01-megapixel video. The main difference is the 3.5-inch screen, upgraded from the 2.7-inch of the HF S100, and the addition of touch control. Like the HF S100 it has an SD/SDHC card slot for storage, with no built-in flash memory.
