Great video but I must say I am really bummed at the moment. All the older vids I have seen on this camcorder showed it at around $320.00US but it seems that now it is at $995.00. Same camera, just a year or two too late for me.HD with an ecterna mic and manual controls for 300 bucks was a dream for me, alas, not to be.
I want a camera , possibly hd ,for my website videos via youtube, wil lthis be ok? and whats the battery life like ? can i use it all day with out the power going ? please message me back if u can or any one that has this , message me back in youtube, thanks. milo...
worth having a look at this film : in HD and the first time I'd used it...on a 12 mile run through mud and swamps. Quick rinse off afterwards and it is absolutely fine...it does feel strange washing it though!
Hey mr. Leo? I do have some questions tho... can film in 720p and at the press of a button go to slowmotion mode? or do you have to go the menu first? Also... I want to record say a music video with skateboarders and drifting cars... how would the screen be when shooting 1080p or 720p - does it have fluid recording with no shakes in the video and does it have good anti-shake? PLZ help
@ellenthedolphin there's no shoe to mount the microphone, but there is a jack for input and an adapter wire to make a minijack microphone fit. I'm pretty sure you can buy an extension with a shoe mount that will screw into the tripod mount.

does anybody know if this cam works in cold weather im talking like min of -10 (i want to make skiing edits with it and there is a high chance of it being very cold)
hey i was thinking of buying this 4 christmas... do any1 think this would be a good deal? or if not, please comment and leave another good camcorder under 400
hey! i was actually deciding btw this camera and the flip ultra hd. flip ultra hd costs 200 $ i thinkkkkkk. maybe you can check that out. idk. the two cameras are quite different tho.
@MartinMediaWorks the HD1010 is 1080i which is is a lot more powerful than 1080p, the Sanyo HD1000 is 1080p,1080i is movie quality if you know what your doing when you go to edit
@leodee Dear leodee, I like your revision. After HD2000 there is some newer or recent model until today. What model you recommend to me? Thank you. :=)
Hi I was looking into getting this camera, but I was curious if anyone knew if it did time interval recording to do time lapse shots of a sunset or the clouds. Thanks.
great video! a few questions tho im considering buying this(: lol first. does it come with the cables to hook it to the tv and watch the videos there? can you record while its charging? has your experiance with it been good would u reccomend it?
Almost all of my videos on YouTube are recorded with the Xacti HD1010. It's very good. You can record while charging, it comes with the AV cables but you have to buy an HDMI if you need one.
I have the HD1000, HD1010 and HD2000 here, I use them all the time, one comes with me when I am out, the others stay at home etc. Personally I think there is very little difference between the 3, mostly down to Zoom and newer features on the HD2000, in terms of video quality, theres nothing between them.
Yeah 'cause I'm wrestling over deciding which one to get. Should I just go for the cheapest (i.e. HD1000)?
Also, the main reason why I'm getting a video camera is so I can shoot video with people who are wirelessly transmitting their audio from lapel mics. These models can do that right?
so, this doesn't come with an internal mic? I was wondering if you could point me in the direction of camera that is still relatively small but doesn't need to carry around a mic and extra cables in order to record sound. Your help would be appreciated :)
What program do you guys use to edit videos? i have sony vegas, but its a pain trying to always convert files to use on it. and i seem to lose quality. Is there any good editing programs out there that work with this camera??? even the Nero8 that comes with it is pretty limited for editing options and it doesnt work great either...
