- OUTSTANDING PICTUREGREAT CAMERA!! THE PICTURE IS OUTSTANDING!! ONE DISAPPOINTMENT IS THAT THE CAMERA IS NOT EQUIPMENT WITH A "HDMI" CABLE CONNECTION. FOR THE PRICE I WAS SURE THAT IT WOULD HAVE THAT CONNECTION.
BUT OVERALL, I'M VERY HAPPY WITH THE CAMERA. 99% OF MY SHOOTING IS OUTSIDE OF ACTIVE RAILROAD OPERATIONS. FAST MOVING TRAINS, ETC. ASO I SHOOT FIREFIGHTING SCENES FOR MY FIRE DEPT. ONCE AGAIN, OUTSTANDING CAMERA!!

- Great cameraHaving worked with many 'prosumer' 3CCD cameras, this is a great choice for an aspiring filmmaker of any sort. I use it for films, video journalism, blogging, anything.

- warning! Be careful with compatibilityAll Canon HDV cameras has an important issue: if you record in 24F or 30F modes, the tapes can only be played back in the camera itself. Canon records those signals in a proprietary mode that is not HDV compliant. YOU CANNOT PLAYBACK THE TAPES IN ANY DECK OR CAMERA other than Canon.

- A occasional fuzzy image problem shooting in standard definitionIf you get an earlier version of the XH-A1 you may experience a problem shooting in standard definition. (It only occurs in some, not all cameras.) Your picture will look fine in your viewfinder and on your LCD screen. However when you download the footage the scene will be out of focus and the central image will look fuzzy (i.e. something other than the central image may be in sharp focus)--check this using a tripod for the shoot. It will be more pronounced if you are using a wide aperture. This only occurs if you shoot in standard definition and not while you are shooting in HD. (My guess is the problem is an adjustment for SD auto focus with the HD lens.) This is a problem Canon will fix for you in a very quick turn around. If you think this is occurring with your XH-A1 you should call Canon tech support and go over the problem with them so they can give you a repair code. Most likely the repair will be free. If you have this problem, once they repair it, this will be, once again, a five star camcorder. This camera is so complex you might not know whether any problem you are having is you or the camera, so I just wanted to mention this case where the problem does seem to be the camera's. 2008 Learn the (Canon XH A1, XH-A1) XHA1 TUTORIAL TEACHING PROGRAMMED-INSTRUCTION DVD
