something that I really like about this camcorder is that it has a built in light/mic shoe and you'll really need that because most handheld camcorder's built in mics suck so you'll really want to attach an external mic.
although I don't know why I watched this review not because it's bad but because I confirmed that I'm getting a specific sony pro camcorder next year or early 2013.
I have this camera too! some of the things I dont care for about it is the fact that it does not have a manual lens aperture or focus ring, instead you are forced to use the joy stick, which can get a little awkward at times. Also, I dont like the fact that the frame is really tight, its not that bad, so I bought a wide angle lens. And lastly, their isnt a fast way to manually adjust the whit balance. Other than that, this is a phenomenal camera!

can you edit the movies in windows movie maker with out a converter???

no, WMM doesn't work well (if at all) with AVCHD, which is what the HG20 saves as. For myself, I use Pinnacle Studios; affordable but it does the job

hey man, I was wondering if the camera has threads to attach a fish eye? and can you edit with windows movie maker with this camera?

@cisar8 Yes there are threads. I would guess that the camcorder doesn't work with WMM but I'm not certain.

I'm surprised they haven't updated this model, I put it on my Christmas list last year!!
nickypickysticky8 2 years ago
They have released other newer VIXIA models so they probably felt no need to update it.
davidb1494 2 years ago
Oh right, good point.
