Great camera, mediocre software

by f8ster , Dec 2, 2007
Pros: Video and audio quality; size and weight
Cons: Software; battery life
The Bottom Line: A very good camera, somewhat blemished by a weak software bundle. A very good choice if you use a third-party video editing package.
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review: Quick Summary

Very high quality video; small, lightweight camera body; nice feature set; good low-light options; funky, piecemeal software bundle. Overall, a very nice camera.

Going Canon HD was the BEST for me!

by aquaticthinker , Sep 14, 2009
Pros: Optical image stabilizer, Auto lens cover, 60 Gig HD, HD camera, xD camera memory.
Cons: Poor wind cancelation, built in flash not easy to adjust for power, and remote weak.
The Bottom Line: Strong Buy.  Beats Sony on function and options and price hands down.
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review:
Using the Canon Vixia HG20 has been real quantum leap from the Sony 8mm Handycam I own for 8 years.  I have years of fuzzy, poor quality video to convert to digital or DVD so my family can watch past special events.  After using the last...
