When it comes to consumer level HD camcorders, look no further than canon models. At the time of writing, the Canon VIXIA HF200 is one of the best HD camcorders in the market. It records HD videos straight into a flash memory card and has a very impressive feature set.
The Canon VIXIA HF200 is a compact little camcorder, measuring at 2.4 x 2.8 x 4.9 inches and weights just 13.9 ounces. For previewing shots, there is a 2.7-inch LCD display that can be rotated at various angles. All the control buttons are very conveniently laid out. It has a good grip where most of the controls are easily accessible with one hand.
The Canon VIXIA HF200 comes with a 3.89MP image sensor and a 15x optical zoom. It can record HD videos at a 1920 x 1080 resolution at 24Mbps. While recording, Canon’s built-in optical stabilization help produce very steady shots. It also comes with a whole host of other features such as Auto Focus, Face Detections, a 24p Cinema Mode (for creating a cinema-like movie), 30p mode (for shooting fast action sequences) and many more.
Most importantly, the quality of the HD videos recorded with the Canon VIXIA HF200 is astounding. Considering the size of the lens, the videos were surprisingly crisp and sharp. The camcorder focuses very quickly, even in darker lighting conditions. The audio quality of the videos was also pretty good. Currently, the Canon VIXIA HF200 retails for around $599 each. It is a little more expensive that usual, but the premium is a small price to pay considering the excellent video quality and overall performance.
