The right Equipment

byemblueroofing Dec 31, 2009
5 Helpfuls 6 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros It is inexpensive for a professional camera.  It works like a charm.
Cons My camera didn't come with any accessories and that would be nice.
Recommended it? Yes

The Canon XH-A1 is an excellent choice.  I bought as a new videographer and have enjoyed it ever since.  It has worked without fail and provided great footage for all of my needs.

It is suprisingly light weight and easy to handle.  The camera is easily run, with a little bit... Read full review »

Canon does it again. You just have to get your hands on this incredible HDV camcorder. I am definitely upgrading my production camcorders (I currently own XL1, XL1s and XL2). The features and quality of the footage of the XHA1 is over the top! The image quality of the flip out LCD screen is so... Read full review »

Small but Mighty & Wide Screen too

byneocoffee41 Jul 11, 2007
19 Helpfuls 20 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Wide Screen Camcorder in an easy to handle package.
Cons The most useful cable is noticeably missing.
Recommended it? Yes

Sometimes you decide that you need something and you don't always have a good reason why you NEED it. For me this was one of those cases. It has been several years since I have owned a traditional camcorder. My last one died probably 7 years ago and I just never gotten around to replacing it,... Read full review »

Pros Nice camcorder. Great price. Widescreen a bonus; picture is nice and clear. Big LCD...
Cons LED light doesn't do much for low light.
Recommended it? Yes

We used to have an old 8mm Sony camcorder, which worked great for our oldest boy, but with a new baby on the way, we wanted something that would seamlessly communicate with our DVD burner so we could share our movies with family members who live far away and won't get to see him grow up.
