Great camcorder, even refurbished October 2, 2009 Demi Grog (Virginia) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I wanted HD, and I wanted Canon for their image quality, but I didn't want to pay more than $500. The HF11 would normally be out of that range, but I got it as a factory refurb, and I'm glad I did. Works great, no missing items or problems that I can see.
Low light recording was pretty good in 24P mode, though the normal modes were a bit noisy. I did find that the full HD, full quality recording mode is way too much for my computers to playback without stuttering. The bundled software is pathetic (it didn't recognize the MTS file format for the 24P recordings!); don't bother with it--get WinFF for converting video formats, VLC or Media Player Classic for playback.
Great Camera; Poor software September 14, 2009 Luciano B. Brasil (Austin, USA) This camcorder is just great. Lightweight and great quality. Just be prepared to shoot High Def videos and have 100+MB for 1-min of recording!!! It's for sure one of the best of its kind in the market. I did an extensive research and I couldn't be happier with this camcorder. Ohh sorry, yes I could be happier,...the software to edit your recordings is terrible. You will need to invest another $100 and buy a good video editing SW.
Awesome Camera For The Money! August 28, 2009 T. Young (New York) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I bought this video camera to take on my trips and needed something both small, but with great image resolution. The Canon Vixia HF11 fits the bill. The controls are very easy to use and the interface is almost idiot proof. I use a Macbook Pro and with iMovie and the camera plugged in I have had no problems. The video is crisp and clear on every quality setting and the sound is very decent. The best thing is the size. It's light and easy to throw in a bag. I plan on using it for my food blog [...] Please check my site soon for actual, live footage.

If you can find one of these, get it. Excellent picture quality, better, in my estimation, in low-light than the newer models, easy to use, small.
Things to think about June 23, 2009 D. Sanders (Sacramento, CA) 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
I've had this camcorder for 7 months now and have been somewhat pleased with it overall. The reason I only gave it 4 stars is for some annoying issues I have with it.
First off, you can only transfer your video clips if you have the power cord attached. This is inconvenient if you want to get one or two clips onto your computer and have a fully charged battery on the camcorder. Also, once you have your camcorder connected to your computer (via USB cable), you cannot turn the camcorder off unless you disconnect the USB cable. I'm guessing Canon felt it was necessary to protect interruptions during transfer of your video clips. But who would be dumb enough to disconnect or turn off their camcorder in the middle of a transfer?
Another issue I have is that if you don't want to use ImageMixer 3 SE software program to access your video files via your computer you'll have to follow this path from your hard drive: G:\ (or whichever drive it's assigned to) PRIVATE\AVCHD\BDMV\STREAM\00000.MTS. If you use the ImageMixer 3 SE software it basically adds another set of steps in order to view your clips on your computer. Because once you copy your video files using ImageMixer software, you must open the ImageMixer 3 SE Player if you want to view your video. Another step. The ImageMixer 3 SE Player doesn't display which video file you're viewing. That is such a simple thing to have showing that I wonder why it was left out. So you click File then Select File. Choose a file and click Open. The files are number like this example: 20090622091442 (Year, month, day, hour, minutes, seconds). That's great if you can remember which clip number among many is showing in the viewer. Note: the long number is automatically generated from using the ImageMixer software to copy the video to your computer. If you go directly to your hard drive (see above path) then you won't get the data (long file number). It will just be 00000, 00001, 00002.MTS, etc.
From here I must give this camcorder a big plus. I've dropped this camcorder twice. It was on a tripod and the tripod fell down on a ceramic floor. The camcorder still worked and with no visual scars. Then it fell off a handle bar mount on a bicycle and tumbled into the street. It's scratched up but it works fine. I think good construction and a little luck kept if from imminent death.
