For those who love Canon's XL H1 HD camcorder but want to avoid videotape, Focus Enhancements now offers two new portable disk recorders, called the FireStore FS-C series, that mount on the back of the camera. The FS-C HD60 (60 GB capacity, 4 1/2 hours of 1080i HD record time) and FS-C HD100 (100 GB, 7 1/2 hours) let videographers record direct nonlinear HDV or DV (25 Mbps) streams via FireWire, with or without a tape inserted in the camcorder. When in HD mode, footage is recorded as an .m2t file that is compatible with most HD editing software.
