If you just bought the HV20 then you took advantage of the discounting of the HV20 price. I doubt you'll find the HV20 for too much cheaper anyway, even with this new release.]]>Jan 7th 2008 7:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/Jan 7th 2008 11:34AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/Jan 7th 2008 12:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/ - Full HD lens-to-screen (ie 1920x1080 resolution for capture, recording and output)
- 17 Mbps AVCHD (which is about 50% higher bit-rate than other AVCHD camcorders)

So, they should be pretty good quality. I'm now thinking of buy one...]]>Jan 7th 2008 12:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/Jan 7th 2008 12:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/Jan 7th 2008 12:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/
Any 3 CCD models?]]>Jan 7th 2008 1:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/
that doesn't even make sense to me, but there it is.]]>Jan 7th 2008 4:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/Jan 7th 2008 1:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/

Oh, and lo and behold, it also has a headphone jack! Small detail, but it seems every manufacturer has been omitting this very useful feature from their camcorders as of late.

Wish the optical zoom was double, though. 10x and 12x is growing tired.]]>Jan 7th 2008 5:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/Jan 7th 2008 7:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/
And quite frankly, the point ISN'T how often I'd be using zoom, the POINT is, that when I AM making use of it (even if I don't use it often), I want as much optical range as I can get. That allows for more flexibility.

The wide-end of the lens is a separate issue altogether.

I'm not an uneducated consumer or technology user, and the 10/12x *IS* tired. Just like the tired 3x zooms we always see on P&S cameras.]]>Jan 7th 2008 9:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/
If I wanted a long zoom, I'd get the "white" Canon prosumer camcorders and then use my Canon 100-400L USM lens on it. Now THAT is a zoom!!!

Overall, I'm glad Canon has finally gone flash. I didn't want DVD or hard drive (have nightmares of being in the field and maxing out my HD with no place to unload!) so I'm ready to jump from tape to flash.]]>Jan 31st 2008 9:47AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/Jan 7th 2008 9:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/Jan 9th 2008 10:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/Jan 9th 2008 2:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/canons-vixia-high-def-camcorder-get-official/Jan 19th 2008 7:19PM
