3 out of 5 stars Great camcorder. Mac integration not plug & play.   November 26, 2008

We've owned the camera for about 3 months now. It is a great little camera, and the onboard flash memory seems to have more than ample storage for most needs. It is simple to use if you spend 10 minutes with the user guide to get the basics. One challenge for Mac owners though -- it does not ship with the necessary software for integrating with your Mac. You will most likely need to download and install a few third-party products to deal with the .MOD files and get them into a format that IMovie 06 and Quicktime 6/7 can understand. You'll need to budget some CPU cycles for each and every clip to be converted to a more compatible file format. Overall, we're happy with it and would probably buy another, but wish that Mac offered a few highly integrated true plug and play camcorders.


5 out of 5 stars Tiny but big in features !   September 19, 2008

Decent battery recording time, video quality is excellent and the image stabilization really works with the long range optical zoom. Everything i'd expect according to vendor description is good. Don't have any problem with the software bundle with it on my Dell Precision 380 PC and work fine with Windows XP Pro. And, great price too.


5 out of 5 stars Nice. So easy to use.   September 5, 2008
G. Prevost (Cary, NC)
Bought this video camera for my 9 year old daughter who wants to start her own tv show. This camera is very easy to use, lightweight, and extremely compact. We took it to the lake last weekend and I used it to film the kids tubing and waterskiing. The fact that the camera has built-in memory and lightweight made it the filming easy. Also liked the lens on it.

I have been having some difficulty connecting this camera to my MacBook Pro (intel) but I'm sure I'll figure it out.

Overall, this camera has been performing well, it's versatile, and the kids can use it without difficulty. I would purchase this camera again. Just wish Canon would do more for Mac users.



5 out of 5 stars Better than I thought   August 31, 2008

I had read a few disparaging things on the net about the Canon product in conjunction with Apple computers. I made the purchase because the Canon had all the features I wanted for the right price. I had no problems interfacing with my MacBook (intel) and shooting with the camera was very intuitive, as well as the menu setup. I have hardly had to glance at the owners' manual yet. Yea, I'll get to it to get more out of the camera. But I already have several videos uploaded onto youtube, I recommend this camera. Battery life seems real good, and the separate memory SD gives me flexibility. I can use the Transcend reader to USB the the SD to teh MacBook, without having to plug the camera into my laptop. Very convenient.

This camcorder is easy to use and the use of the function buttons right at hand when need to change to a different setting is great. Lighting for indoor settings could be better but over all this camcorder I would rate a 5 star. I love it.
