Will not burn Stadard DVD's with Canon HF10 HD Camera

by olsonbri on August 1, 2008

Pros: Will archive camera video files.

Cons: Will not burn Stadard DVD's; Size is bulky; No decoding/encoding abilities; Need Vista or blu-ray player for playback (XP won't read the discs).

Summary: I bought the DW-100 burner to go with our Canon HF-10 HD flash based camcorder. I'm not so disappointed with the performance of the burner itself, but rather the ...

Summary: I bought the DW-100 burner to go with our Canon HF-10 HD flash based camcorder. I'm not so disappointed with the performance of the burner itself, but rather the misleading description by Canon of what this thing actually is. According to Canon's website, "?DW-100 allows you to connect to a Canon VIXIA HG10, VIXIA HF10, and VIXIA HF100 as well as the FS11, FS10 and FS100 camcorders to download video and burn AVCHD or Standard Definition DVDs." This is not exactly the truth. As it turns out, the ability to burn Standard Definition DVD's is dependant on the camera's ability to record in Standard Definition (and vice versa). For example, Standard Definition is not a recording option with the HF-10, and thus I am unable to burn Standard Definition DVDs.

This issue leads me to the whole point of me buying this burner. I wanted to have the ability to create Standard Definition DVD's on-the-fly (i.e., encode DVD mpeg-2 from source AVCHD) so I could share videos with those friends and family that don't yet have blu-ray playback technologies in their homes (including ourselves at this point in time). Unfortunately there is NO on-the-fly conversion from AVCHD to mpeg-2 at all.

So I'm stuck with a $200 stand-alone DW-100 burner that isn't really anything more than what I already had in my desktop PC, which I bought for $30 about 2 years ago. So be informed as to exactly what you are buying. This unit will not burn Standard Definition DVDs when coupled with the HF-10 as the description implies.
