Canon HV20 HD Camcorder - PMA 2007 Interview

Video Title :	Canon HV20 HD Camcorder - PMA 2007 Interview
Description :	The Canon HV20 HDV Camcorder brings the power of professional level HD recording to the consumer at a price that won't break the bank. The HV20 captures images in genuine HD resolution of 1920 x 1080, so you are shooting in real HDTV, all on a mini HDV tape. One of the biggest features this camera brings to the consumer camcorder market is the ability to capture in 24p, the same frame rate used in movie film. Canon improves upon the standard CCD camcorders by using a 1/2.7" CMOS sensor to generate images. The 2.96MP CMOS sensor tends to process faster than a CCD for richer color and sharper detail. When you add a Canon Optics HD lens, 10x optical zoom and a DV II processor you get ultra-sharp color and incredible detail even from a distance. In order to ensure you get the highest possible video quality and picture Canon added an HDMI output and hot shoe terminal to the HV20. As impressive as the HV20 is as a camcorder, it gets even better as a 3.1 megapixel digital still camera. Store images on tiny HC Mini-SD memory cards with the Mini-SD card slot. The optical image stabilizer and advanced AF auto focus make it easy to get crisp clean video and photos. Choosing and using the enhanced features such as Smooth Zoom Zebra Pattern and Level Shot Control, are easy thanks to the 2.7" LCD screen. Canon fit everything you can ask from a camcorder in the HV20, all in a body that fits comfortably in your pocket. Now if they could only develop a "remove 10 pounds feature"...

this camera looks amazing with the letus35 mini, but I still can't decide if I want to continue saving and get the xh a1

is the camera better than the hg10

yes, much better

I'm nearly 13 and I'm getting one for xmas!!!

how much does it cost?

At $750, I'd grab it! Terrific camera.

Yes, there is an external microphone connection that works great. It's not XLR, but a mini-plug. If your're using a hand microphone to do interviews, get a cable with XLR female to a stereo mini-plug. This camera is terrific!!!

sounds great..talking about sound, does it have an external mic socket?

yes, it also has an accessory shoe (hot shoe)

yes.
