Canon Legria HFS10 32 GB HDV Camcorder

$1,240.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.bestbuy.com
what's great about it:?intuitive menu system, phenomenal video and picture quality what's not so great:?no separate battery charger "i purchased this camera on sale and could not be happier!!
from www.amazon.com
i thought it would be great to review this canon compared to the samsung i got a year ago samsung sc-hmx20c 8gb high definition camcorder with 10x optical zoom which is almost the same.
from www.amazon.com
during zooming, it took a little time to focus when i zoomed--a second longer than i'd like--but from what i've seen with my friends' lesser quality panasonics and sanyos, this focuses ten times
from www.amazon.com
3.) the still picture quality, even with the built in flash, is unbelievable for a camcorder.
from www.amazon.com
its small size makes it easy to handle and the built in stabilization and zoom adds to its functionality.

JVC GZ-HM200 Flash Media Camcorder

$607.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.crutchfield.com
and got the best zoom capabilities in this price range and 2 memory card slots...
from www.amazon.com
* weak image stabilization - the digital image stabilization does make some difference, but the lack of mass of this small camera makes it harder to keep steady (especially at higher zoom levels)
from www.amazon.com
the picture quality is amazing and when i upload videos to either my computer or playstation 3, the high-definition footage may not be up to the same quality as a few documentaries i have on blu-ray
from www.amazon.com
i've shot some demanding scenes and it did a great job of focusing through a chain link fence, during zooms, and the face recognition works well.
from www.amazon.com
it even has a very powerful 20x zoom (vs the more usual 10x-12x on hi-def cams) and similar performance.

Canon HG20 Camcorder

$755.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.bestbuy.com
what's great about it:?picture quality is fantastic, menu system is intuitive, image stabilization is impressive what's not so great:?low light shooting, stock battery life, no hdmi cable included
from www.bestbuy.com
what's great about it:?video/picture quality (including low-light conditions), easy to use, simple menus what's not so great:?battery life is a tad bit short, but that's usually the case with these
from www.bestbuy.com
the 12x zoom and optic stabilizer is better then most of the hd cameras in its class, with the majority of them at 10x zoom.
from www.amazon.com
the telephoto lens worked great for distant pictures even the digital zoom worked better than expected.
from www.amazon.com
i chose the canon because it was rated higher for its picture quality and it was slightly cheaper, the two things that were most important to me.

from www.amazon.com
wish it had a protective lens cap and a decent zoom.
from www.amazon.com

for the money, it's the best product i've found yet, and the picture quality is actually quite good.
from www.amazon.com
there isn't any zoom to speak of (digital zoom is useless, since all it does is blow up a picture and lose precious resolution) but what the flip really asks you to do is rethink how you are
from www.amazon.com
i gave it four stars instead of five because the picture quality is not as good as the larger, more expensive camcorder.
from www.amazon.com
the digital zoom is just that, and you visibly lose resolution when zoomed in.

no more searching for the write connection cord.i wish it had a bigger viewing screen and more zoom, which is only x2.

from www.amazon.com
while recording, up and down will let you zoom in and out (digital, not optical, so it's just the software interpolating pixels), and that's all you can do.
from www.amazon.com
the 2x digital zoom is worthless, as far as i am concerned, as it has limited range.
from www.amazon.com
one is the lack of zoom, digital zoom degrades the video quality so you should never use it!.
from www.amazon.com
the best part of this product is the portability, and picture quality--you will use this.

Sony Handycam HDR-CX12 Flash Media Camcorder

$900.00 Est. at Amazon

from lt.dell.com
picture quality is excellent with very good details and colors.the pmb software is adequate for primary use- copying, storing, viewing, capturing a jpg from video and video clipping.
from www.amazon.com
- the position of the zoom switch is 'convenient' in that it's right under your index finger, but in practice this means that you accidentally zoom the camcorder.
from www.amazon.com
it works fine on windows and the zoom factor worked well from the 7th floor of our hotel in wakaki and the quality of the video was excellent.
from www.amazon.com
finally decided to get it and wow, what a great camera and picture quality.
from www.amazon.com
i love this camcorder, this is my first hd camcorder and the picture quality is real amazing.

from Scott from M, www.circuitcity.com
great zoom, and i can't tell much qualitydifference in the 'fine' and 'ultrafine' settings, so i use it on 'fine' to get more hours on my 4gig sd card.
from www.amazon.com
the picture quality of this camcorder is amazing.
from www.amazon.com
great zoom, lightweight, and the lasertouch control panel makes it so easy to adjust settings.
from www.amazon.com
the 35x optical zoom is a huge step over my last camera (also a jvc) which had a 16x optical zoom.
from www.amazon.com
the 35x optical zoom is killer on this camera and is really overkill unless you are using a tripod since no amount of image stabilization will help at high zoom levels.

one thing i did not mention in the video clip was the digital zoom, which is pretty much a non feature and tends towards big time blurry.

from www.amazon.com
picture quality is great to the untrained eye.
from www.amazon.com
* excellent wide/zoom lens
from www.amazon.com
with these camcorders you get no choice, a 13x zoom with extremely wide depth of field at most every focal distance, because it's a zoom and because the imagers are tiny.
from www.amazon.com
when you use it, it momentarily zooms in on the middle of your next shot so that you can fine focus if needed.
