This is a short comparison between the Canon Vixia HF S21 and the Panasonic HDC-TM700. Both camcorders were recording in Auto Mode at max quality possible, most of the time both cams were recording at the same time; this is why some scenes have poor stabilization and/or point of focus.
As far as the image quality, you will be able to make your own judgment. As far as the audio, both camcorders are losers, the HF S21 because it is only a 2.0 Dolby Digital and most of the people buying this type of equipments use to have a 5.1 or 7.1 AV-Receiver, while the HDC-TM700 has a better 5.1 Dolby Digital Creator but the fan noise is a huge impediment for quiet environments, thankfully not in this case.
