Is Canon's HTC 100 HDMI Cable really needed? Hi -I was wondering if any one knows if I really need to buy Canon's HDMI cable - or is there a cheaper one out there that would work???

I bought the Canon HTC-100 HDMI cable for my Canon Vixia HFS10 camcorder. The picture quality is horrible! The color is way off -- yellow and muddy. The supplied component cables produce a far superior and accurate image. Anyone have any advice or should I just return the cable?

To answer my own question - I purchased a media bridge HDMI Cable off Amazon & it worked just fine. Now with that being said, I actually never needed to buy this cable. The H FS100 is a flash drive - I purchased a Transcend card w/ a USB Reader & if you have a DVD or Blu Ray Player w/ USB slots - your good to go. FYI - I was going to purchase a Blu Ray player, but it was better to go w/ a Sony PS3. Not only is it a Blu Ray Player, but it has 2 USB Slots, plays video games & you can surf the Web with it. Hopes this help someone else!

I saw some reviews on cables a while back showing some cheaper cables not working, except maybe having to jiggle the cable.So I bought the Canon cable, and it's worked without trouble.

So that's why I can't find it! Hmmmm. I had it on my SD1000 and it was a fun feature. So, the SD780 has it? I hate to spend $44 more if there aren't any other significant upgraded features. I know there is HD video. I'll have to rethink this! :)

I want to but the LN46A630 and want to ensure that I get the correct HDMI cable that will support 120 HZ, etc. So what exact product should I get? When folks reply, please give the model # so I know what to get. Thanks!

many cameras (Canon...) have a mini-HDMI output. This cable must be ordered separately (but such a cable is inexpensive).

Yes u can u have to upload the Canon Camera World app... It's free. Then add your phone as a device with a name. Go on canon.com & download the owners manual it will help u also to set up. No cables is awesome. Once u download that manual save it. I refer to it all the time.

If your buying a Canon printer, which is all I ever buy because of their excellent customer service and reliability, the cable is usually not included. It looks like you can pick one up here at Amazon for $2.99 here at Amazon and get free shipping with a Prime membership, or an order over $25. I saw a new belkin for $5 (including shipping) if you're not a Prime member. I've never understood why people overpay for all types of cables, (like $20 for a printer cable) at the stores.

Caitlin Gagnon, The HDMI cable is not included in the box. It would need to be purchased separately. There are a great number of inexpensive HDMI cables available on Amazon here that should work just fine:

Yes, Mr. Green, Under the flap on the R. side of the body, there are 2 ports, a MINI HDMI cable( the ones sold by Amazon Premium Canon Mini HDMI cable) for connecting to an HDTV and USB/AV port to transport photos to your computer. I bought 2 of this Mini HDMI cable AT Amazon and connect it to the HDMI input of my 2 HDTV. I think you'll enjoy viewing your photo on your large screen HDTV with this Premium Canon Mini HDMI cable. The Mini HDMI side is for the camera and the larger (Standard size)HDMI connector for your HDTV.

I don't think that I ever purchase this cable. If I did it was a long time ago. I have not had a Canon for a while.

Thanks, I thought so. A friend of mine ordered a pkg deal from eBay and it didn't come with the charger. I guess she got ripped off with that. She ended up having to go out and buy one.One more question... I've been looking on here to find the best memory card for the camera without paying too much money for an actual Panasonic one. Is the Transcend memory card compatible? (The Transcend 16GB SDHC memory card with USB plug-in). I've read mixed reviews about which ones work or don't work.Thanks in advance & thanks for the previous response.

I couldn't get mine to connect either. I purchased the HDMI adapter and it worked fine. I can only assume that the cable has a problem. Too bad because I really wanted the longer cable.

I tried that adapter. It fried the second i hooked it up. Decided to go another route. Western digital makes a player that will play what you want in 1080p via HDMI. And you just play your phone or device directly up to it and it also plays just about any audio and video formats from your phone or portable storage.

Yes...believe it or not the canon cable is slightly diffetent. I tried using my sons Playstation 3 charging cable and it fit 99% perfectly but when talkibg to rep at Canon was told it is in fact different. The Dcable I bought though works fine. Not sure you need the extremely over priced "Canon" cable, you just need a cable that is not for charging, you need a cable that has transfer capabilities or both.

Their products work great except they don't specify them correctly. Check care fully what they advertised. One for Nikon and the other for Canon. I got it wrong one with the one they advertised for both brands but it is not. The device is the same except the cable attached to the camera. Even the same brand but from one model to the other is different cable too. I have both Canon full frame and none full frame so I have to buy their cable separately. I hope this will answer you question.

No it doesn't come with that cable, you need to purchase that cable. In my review I explained all you need. What you need is an hdmi 4.1 cable. Basically its a just an hdmi cable but with the newer technology in it. Its like $6 on amazon. So you need that and an optical cable and then take a look at how I hooked mine up and you're good to go!! Hope that helped. Let me know if any other questions!!

Just got the 215 @ Costco for $149.99. Doing firmware update via wifi now. Still haven't played anything with it... just passing in info on the price. The HDMI cable it comes with is fine for those of use who know how to separate our power cables from our video/audio cables. If you mix them, you may want something with a heavier insulation on it. I need Lasik anyway, like I'd notice the difference between a free HDMI cable and a $90 Monster brand cable.
