The FS21 maintains the excellent basic functionality of its predecessor through such features as the 48x Advanced Zoom and high-performance DIGIC DV II image processor, but realizes both a body that is 3 mm slimmer and 8% lighter, and a 16GB internal flash drive that is double the capacity of the iVIS FS10. Advancements in energy-saving performance allow the iVIS FS21 to continuously record video for 215*1 minutes with a full charge of the battery included with the camcorder.
