User Reviews Summary

Canon VIXIA HF200 HD User Opinions Summary:

    Canon VIXIA HF200 HD Flash Memory Camcorder is small in size and weight, but big on features. It shoots HD video with 15x zoom. The menu is intuitive and easy to use. Users report, that supplied software is not satisfying, and that downloading video from the camcorder to the computer can be tricky.
    Pros.

  1. The flash is a high-power white LED.
  2. The still photo features are quite amazing.
  3. The video quality is superb.
  4. The 15x zoom is impressive.
  5. The image stabilization works very well on the long focus end too.
  6. LCD panel is in good size.
  7. All the buttons and menu are well designed > very easy to use.
  8. Canon Face Detection is a very nice feature.
  9. Small and light.
  10. Good low-light performance.
  11. Good manual focus.
    Cons.

  1. Downloading video off the camera can become tricky > .mts file format and large size.
  2. The supplied Pixela software is minimal.
  3. The camcorder ships without a HDMI cable.

What do people say

- Very tiny, fits into my palm
- Great ergonomics
- Manual focus, not so easy to work around, but good enough.
- Video quality is great
- I use a Mac and did not need any software, iMovie recognizes the AVCHD and imports it. Converts it to Quicktime and I can easily edit it too.
- Low light, like any other cam corder, not bad! Unless you are expecting something extraordinary!
- Battery life: 1.5 hrs
- I have a 16GB card…SDHC class 4…great to record… gives me just over an hour at 24MBPS. If it was class 6 recording would not be affected , but playing back or uploading to a computer would be.
- 15x optical zoom and 300x digital zoom is awesome…I have seen other cameras where the digital zoom is terrible.

Pros:
-Built in light for dark shooting. I found it effective to about 4 feet.
-Small form factor. The battery is smaller than the lens.
-SDHC flash memory instead of built-in hard drives. So no auto-shut off feature or risk of damage when dropped.
-Two-button, very intuitive menu system. Requires no learning curve. Menu feels almost exactly like a regular digital camera.
-Built in top slot for expansion to an external camera flash, microphone, or video light.
-To view videos on the computer, can use Windows Media Player or VLC.
-Default saved videos in .mts format. Can burn it to blu-ray if shot in full quality and have a blu-ray burner.
-15x optical zoom. Comes with digital zoom disabled in the menu. I’ve never needed to turn it on. The optical zoom is amazing.
-Comes with built-in HDMI output port. Included cables are for component video and regular composite. Component output can be set to 1080i or 480i.
-Still photos come out to about 3 megapixel quality. Not bad.
-Does take regular SD cards.
