Reviews & Research

CNET Editors' reviewGood

  • THE GOOD

    Very good video at highest quality setting; nice lens performance.

  • THE BAD

    Poorly designed touch-screen menu system; short battery life; defaults to low-quality video mode.

  • THE BOTTOM LINE

    "At its best, the Canon Vixia HF M3x series--composed of the M300, M30, M31, and M32--delivers a very good blend of video quality, features, and performance for the money, but some people may find the touch-screen interface extremely frustrating to use and the battery life painfully short. Plus, you really need to bump up to the highest bit rate quality. Of the series, the HF M300 is the best deal."

    Good value especially for home use.

    No, I would not recommend this product.

    Older version of the cam recorder, I use it mainly at home. For home use only it is a good value for my money.

    Great camera for an affordable price!

    Yes, I would recommend this product to a friend.

    Purchased as a second camera for shooting a web tv talk show. Actually the second camera we purchased like this - they match color and picture quality perfectly!
