Canon Vixia HR10
$1,399.00
Released October, 2001
The Pros:In good lighting the image capture is excellent, everything looks bright and sharp. Plenty of 37mm lenses available that screw onto the front of the camera. Mic captures audio clearly and focuses out ambient noises.
The Cons:The DVD format is now a bit out of date with the wider adoption of Blu-ray, HDTV and digital media. Not too much software supports the AVCHD format. Low lighting or even typical indoor lighting looks pretty grainy.
