I've been using video cameras for decades. I try to by pro or pro-sumer type cameras. However the last camera I bought was well over a decade ago. Another canon that uses DV tape. I'm out of that biz, however I wanted something HD for my Daughter's wedding. Much to my surprise the field is nothing like I remembered it. I found this camera, good price, features, etc. Bought it and a big card for memory. Turns out I have way more recording time than I need, almost 16 hours. I found that with hand video, the digic chip does very well to smooth it out. Much better than my older camera. Video quality is amazing for the price. I wish it had the frame type mode that my old camera had. In fact a lot of those settings are not there. I don't think I need them anymore, it does a really good job by itself. I wish I had bought another one of these for the wedding. I could have had a two camera setup that would have rivaled what I used to do as a pro. This camera is a lot lighter than my old one, just a fraction of the pro camera I had. Seems almost like a spy camera. Zoom works well, fast/slow and smooth. In fact the camera is barely larger than the tripod shoe that I used to have my pro camera mounted to. Kind of looked like a joke. Hooking it up to my Fedora Linux machine, using the Dolphin app, I was able to see the camera in review mode and move the files to my desktop hard drive. There I used kdenlive to process the video segments into a finished product. It's not premier pro which is what I used to use (and can't anymore... old win XP product), however it's good for pasting the segments all together and coming up with a mp4, etc. If you want something that has good video, inexpensive, this is it. This product is discontinued, however. Grab it while you can.Read full review

I love this camera so much I bought a second one just to have. Now I'm shooting from multiple angles baby!! :) Great quality video and easy to use. Mic picks up sound great but love the external mic jack.

Had to tinker a lot with manual settings to get good picture. Auto settings produce very noisy midtones at moderate light levels. Good outdoor or very bright room only. Only able to get 480p on HDMI output and no manual setting to force higher image quality.
