Title: Canon HG10

Pros: Excellent image stabilisation; generally great video quality

Cons: Poor audio control; smallish EVF; some annoying ergonomics; no manual focus dial

Verdict: There's no doubt about it -- the Canon HG10 takes sharp, well-exposed photos and HD videos. Unfortunately, its poor design and audio control make it hard to recommend above its competitors

Summary: The Canon HG10, the hard drive-based, AVCHD-compatible camcorder, takes some chances. For starters, it has one of the most comfortable zoom switches in its class. Plus, upping its low-light performance, both focus and video quality, means it goes beyond o

Title: Canon HG10 Camcorder Review - Canon HDD Camcorders

Verdict: If you're in the market for an HDD camcorder, the Canon HG10 is the best on the market. If you're in the market for an AVCHD camcorder, the HG10 offers the highest video quality we've seen so far. At an MSRP of $1299, you're certainly paying dearly for th

Summary: The Canon HR10 is a looker, both in person and by the specs sheet. Despite the first class pedigree of the imaging system (identical to the HV20), we were still skeptical of the AVCHD codec, which has given other manufacturers problems with motion. Aside

Title: Canon HG10

Verdict: Those same users will also be pleased to find both an external microphone and headphone socket, allowing for more advanced sound recording. However, half the camcorders on test here have a microphone socket, so it doesn�€™t give it much of an a

Summary: Good quality optics and lots of storage, but not the most portable of camcorders
67/100
Title: Canon HG10

Pros: Generous 40GB hard disk storage is more than enough, viewfinder is handy when LCD visibility suffers in sunlight, robust build and reliable performer

Cons: Too large to be pocketed, awkward positioning of some controls, stills committed to removable card only (which costs extra), auto focus sometimes hunts

Verdict: More positively, you can further enhance the look of your footage by selecting the built-in cinema mode, which, combined with its 25fps (frames per second) progressive frame rate, lends your digital images a film-like feel. Footage displays naturalistic (

Summary: Canon's robust HG10 offers support for the teeny microSD card - ironic, given the camcorder's build is one of the chunkiest on test - and includes a built-in 40GB hard drive that allows for up to 15 hours of full HD 1080i video (AVCHD compression format).

Title: Canon HG10 review

Verdict: Despite minor gripes, the HG10 offers solid performance at a reasonable price. And that's enough for us to recommend the Canon HG10.

Summary: Canon's robust HG10 camcorder offers support for microSD and includes a 40GB hard drive that allows for up to 15 hours of full HD 1,080i video.

Title: Review : Canon HG10 HDD Camcorder

Verdict: The optical zoom is 10x and should you believe in it up to 200x digital zoom. In still image mode you can choose from 2048x1536, 1920x1080, 1440x1080, 848x480 and 640x480

Summary: This camcorder is one of the latest versions that record to an internal hard drive, thus increasing the capacity vastly over other storage methods. It can of course also record still images onto an SD card.

Title: Canon HG10

Pros: Low cost. Professional features. Small. Light. Impressive video quality for price.

Cons: Noticeable compression artefacts. Poor support from Adobe's applications.

Verdict: The HG10's sister product, the HV20, has become the entry-level HDV camcorder of choice, and its HV30 successor looks set to continue that. The HG10 is essentially a tapeless version. If you need to record hours of HD video for test shoots, it's a good va

Summary: At first glance, the HG10 might look rather out-of-place in this line-up, but it has several features that could make it suitable if your HD video-production needs are modest and occasional.

Title: Canon HG10

Verdict: Canon gets it right with its first hard-disk-based camcorder.

Summary: In the past couple of years, Canon has held back from new camcorder formats, but that hasn't prevented it from producing some splendid products. Canon's HV20 (web ID: 125305) is currently the best sub--1,500 HDV camcorder on the market and the HG10 - its

Title: Canon HG10 | Our Review | TechRadar UK

Pros: Superb images; Very easy to manage clips; Native support in iMovie ’08; Good stills performance

Cons: Some ergonomic mistakes; Opaque menu system

Verdict: Yes, its expensive. Yes, few people have the displays to play back full HD in all its glory. And yes, youre going to have to invest in some serious storage to archive this footage rather than simply filing cheap tapes. But still, this is a lovely camera t

Summary: The HG10 is light and comfortable to hold

Cons: Poor battery life, Chunky build, Not the cheapest compact around, Massively expensive, Could overly dominate a room, Average performance, Overly small controls, Overpriced, Drab design, Handling noise occasionally captured, Expensive

Verdict: A well-specified performer with an innovative approach to navigation and manual operation that is capable of impressive pictures and sound.

Summary: When we recently gave Canon's HR10 AVCHD cam a workout and were seriously impressed by what it offered for the relatively small asking price of £600. This time around it's the turn of its higher specified brethren, the HG10.

75/100
Title: Canon HG10 HDD Camcorder

Verdict: Although the HG10 doesn't bowl us over quite as much as the HV20, it's still an impressive piece of kit. Sony's lower end HDR-SR5E undercuts it on price considerably, but misses out key features such as a standard-sized accessory shoe. The more fully feat

Summary: Canon's first camcorder with a hard disk drive makes its debut. Is James Morris impressed?

Title: SimplyDV Review: Canon HG10 AVCHD Camcorder

Verdict: The AVCHD system might entail heavy compression, but the results from the CMOS imaging device are stunning; colour, contrast and resolution are excellent and the cam doesnâ-'t suffer from low-noise artefacts in the way that its major competitors do. Not o

Summary: With its large CMOS imaging chip, 40GB hard disc drive, superb lens, 10x optical zoom, 2.7" LCD and heaps of functionality, is the HG10 as good as AVCHD high definition can possibly get?

Pros: Very good video, Managing clips like they're stills is refreshing, Competitively priced

Cons: Some ergonomic compromises, Not easy to control manually, Room for improvement in audio

Verdict: The HG10 shoots great video and handles well, but there are some ergonomic compromises, and while it's not good enough to be a pro camcorder, it's not cheap enough for most consumers. Regardless, its performance and sheer allure mark it out as a strong HD

Summary: For a camera with so many young technologies on board, this is a surprisingly mature product
