I purchased this camcorder to make videos with my grandkids. We take old songs and make mini movies out of them. (They really liked the Marty Robbins song "El Paso" because we did a western). I already owned a Canon FS200. The only difference between the two camcorders is that the FS200 has an external mike jack, and I use a shotgun mike to get better sound quality. I think that the Canon FS series camcorders are some of the best for the money out there. Ease of use and file transfer to the computer is what I like most. The quality of the video is outstanding. I now have two of these style camcorders so I highly recommend them.
I own a FX200 and love it but, like the FX300, it is NOT true HD! Though the video quality rivals most lower end HD video cameras and it will produce the 16.9 wide videos, it is not true HD. That is actually a good thing when it comes to rendering because the files are smaller. One quick note, the FX200 is the same as the FX300 with the added bonus of a great external mirophone input. For whatever reason Canon dropped that in the newer FX300. Get the 200 if you can!
I had decided to video my grandchildren and friends while fishing. Internet research made the Canon FS 300 look just the right size, and price. Reviews seemed excellent and video made it look simple to use. Getting it USED on Ebay was a risk but the seller had an excellent history. So I got it for far less the the new cost and it works like new!! So far it has proved to be just what I had hoped for. By the end of summer I hope I will be just as happy. I already had a tripod that fits just right. Now I just set it at the bow of the boat , push the button and it records hours of exciting fishing that I can watch during the winter.
Easy to operate and easy to use. Sleek design. The closing of the LCD screen to pause the recording also has its adantages. The software that comes with the camcorder could be better because, it is a little complex and not easy to understand or perform anyway I downloaded different software and everything works fine. Excellent product. Thanks
Its easy to use and very tinny and cheep!
