also, with canon mini-accessory shoe, you can attach a dm-100 "shotgun" mic to is which is superb (it also has a furry wind filter which works excellent outdoors).

i use windows 7 x64, and vista ultimate x64 and it works.don't use cccp for video codecs, it causes issues, uninstall it.

bundled pixela image mixer 3 software would not run properly (windows vista home premium 32-bit), so unable to to transfer video (mts file type) to computer using it.
from www.amazon.com
the battery that comes with this camera does not last very long, so you'll want to buy a secondary battery off somewhere like ebay, and the microphone on it doesn't seem to be the greatest in windy

what's great about it:?video quality, control options what's not so great:?short battery life, no seperate charger included, avchd not suppoted by windows media "great video and handling.

i hated the fact that canon did not supply a mac os x software, it only came with a windows version of the supplied software and another program cd that deals with picture transfer that you can
from www.amazon.com
i hate lens caps with a passion - they're awkward and you tend to leave the lens exposed much more than with an auto (and as a result wind up having to clean the lens more often).
from www.amazon.com
no waiting for tapes to wind or hard drives to spin.

Kodak Zi6 Camcorder

$162.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.bestbuy.com
the software is simple and easy to use, and it does work on windows vista, you just have to make sure to download the included disc and plug the camera in and download it also (i made that mistake).
from www.amazon.com
so, for windows users, the immediate/instant playback of the mov files should be seen as just a first draft -- it will look much better if you care enough about your video to convert it.
from www.amazon.com
there are a number of long winded reviews on it so i'll be brief and just point out a few minor issues.
from www.amazon.com
it is easy to upload the pictures, as there is a usb connector built into the camera, and windows' scanner and camera wizard was able to upload the pictures, both still and video, without a problem.
from www.amazon.com
i have a lot of waterfront listings so with the winds the movement can be extreme.

when i plugged the camera in via usb, the camera mounted up as a drive, as did a 19mb drive with what appears to be some video software for windows.
from www.amazon.com
i shot the same area of my office (dark reddish brown walls, windows with drapes over roman shades, another building blocking out the light.

Pure Digital MinoHD F460 Camcorder

$210.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
i took my camcorder to the beach and it captures all sounds--the seagulls, the wind, the waves, everything.
from www.amazon.com
amazon.com's product description page for the mino hd simply says: "operating system compatibility - windows xp, windows vista, and mac osx." however...the minimum requirements listed on the box are
from www.amazon.com
the software isn't completely compatible with windows vista (it changes the theme to windows classic), and so far it hasn't successfully uploaded a video to youtube for me, and i haven't found any
from www.amazon.com
my only complaint is that when i try to combine multiple videos to make a movie, the process crashes and it can't even begin (i'm running windows vista, with intel onboard video).
from www.amazon.com
after reboot, connect your camcorder - cancel any window that pops up asking if you want to view the files using the software on the camcorder.

Sony Handycam HDR-CX12 Flash Media Camcorder

$1,400.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
so far i'm disappointed that there is no software for mac pro, only windows.
from www.amazon.com
suggest an external mic with wind screen on a breezy day, mic is a bit sensitive.
from www.amazon.com
negatives are few: lack of windfilter for windy days.
from www.amazon.com
probably this is the best solution for workflow from this camera, but it is windows only.

JVC Flash Media GZ-MS100 Camcorder

$291.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
it is tiny and light and can be mounted (through a small universal mount, purchased from other place) to my windshield quite stable.
from www.amazon.com
although the recordings are in .mod files, you can still watch them on windows media player.
from www.amazon.com
having downloaded some test video to my windows xp pc, i noticed that each video file has a separate 3k document that tags the video as being full or widescreen.
from www.amazon.com
i can open and play the mod file using windows media player, but files recorded in widescreen format display in the 4:3 format, so the video is "scrunched".
from www.amazon.com
these files are not read by xp windows movie maker (jvc says vista has no problem with them, not confirmed by me) also the software included is not for video editing and probably useless to anyone

flip out the usb, connect it to my machine - the editing software for winders and mac is onboard the mino - so you can be ready on a friends machine to download and edit.

i haven't filmed outdoors yet, so i don't yet know how good it does at filtering out ambient noise/wind.
from www.amazon.com
transferring video to our computer (running windows xp) was a breeze, and we were both quite impressed with the quality of the picture.

the footage was taken on a partly sunny and windy day.

we did have trouble trying to use it with an old windows 2000 computer.

this might be a good feature, too, when windows replaces vista and doesn't support this camera any more.
