Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) is a next generation wide field camera (Field of view: 1.5 deg in diameter) built for 8.2 m Subaru telescope. The commissioning observation is underway and we demonstrated that the image quality is mostly natural seeing limited as designed: < 0.5 arcsec FWHM in its best case and the median ~ 0.6 arcsec. In this talk, we will introduce the performance and prospect of HSC as well as the current status of Subaru telescope.
