Spend the extra grand and buy the XF100 like I did. Trust me its worth it, this camera only qualifies as a prosumer because of the xlr, everything about it can be found in consumer cameras. Not to mention, the handle is detachable, that's never good because over time the connection will wear out and your audio will sound distorted. I'm sure if you have over 2k to spend on this piece of crap, you will have an extra grand to just buy the real thing.
Please can you giveaway this because i want to record hd videos and my father wants me to use the old camera it low Quality and very hard to make videos
Seems like an awesome camera however for a similar price you can get a Sony NEX VG10/20 (well in the UK you can anyway) and personally I'd see the interchangable lens on the Sony as a dealbreaker!
Soldier, I just wanna know why you fought this thing. I am a noob in videography. People say dslrs are a lot better than conventional video cams. So you have a t2i and you bought this. Why is that?
And again thanks a lot to you and your friends for defending an protecting united states. By the way, I am an Indian.
@jaihindhreddy Sometimes, he receives products for review, but sometimes he buys it for himself... I think he bought this because it's a camera that was designed to take video.
That camera looks great! I'm thinking I may need to upgrade from my Sony Handycam HDR-XR100E, this looks like a great camera and I will consider it, once I know a price!
I'm sure youve mentioned it before, or if someone else can clarify, what do you do when youre done with these things?! keep them? sell them? send them back? Im rather confused
@hazardousmango they have return stickers, and have to put it back in the box and ship it back with the return label.I did the same when verizon sent me a HD DVR box. it works the exact same way.
I was just thinking... but.. anyone else notice that the videos of Mark is kinda becoming bad? It's just annoying me, the fact that he has 1 good camera, and the other one looks like crap...
i have a feeling your filming equipment is starting to break because the last, what, 5 videos, you have only done unboxings and reviews of cameras and mics. not saying its a bad thing but did your stuff break or is it about to?
I like how he doesn't know anything about the product he's reviewing. "Yeah we got some cables here (component/charging cables), don't know what that is (Mic holder screws); More and more cables here (stereo/USB cables); I don't know what that is (stylus); Alright we got something else there (Mic holder)". Seriously dude, if you're going to do unboxings, at least know what you're doing.
Look into getting the Canon VIXIA HF-G10. It's almost exactly the same, it just doesn't have a handle, XLR inputs, and it only has half the built in flash memory, but it's at least $500 cheaper.
I doubt many of your viewers are actually able to afford one of those. Unboxing new tech is one thing. Showing off is another one. Be a bit more considerate in the future.
Ok so it looks nice... but am I the only one that would not be so quick to buy this knowing that it only shoots 25FPS? Come on, my Flip Mino HD even shoots at 29.97...
@CPCookieMan It doesn't just shoot in 24fps, I believe it does up to 60p. 24p is used to give a cinematic look and is only found on high end cameras. The fact that this natively shoots 24p is a big deal.
@live4mac Ahh ok, I can see the whole cinematic look thing working with 24fps since the theaters all show movies in that and stuff. Nice to know it can shoot higher, as I would probably want it to personally.
This is good and all, but can you stop reviewing anything over like $1,500 (besides computers of corse) The majority of the audience doesn't have that large of a budget.
I love all of these camera reviews...But i'm wondering what you need such an expensive camcorder for? How much extra film work do you do that you need something beyond your DSLR?
you should do a slowmo test with this cam. i dont think there are many or if any up on youtube using the xa10. also subscribers who are sick of camera stuff will enjoy it too.
@devonly2 I have so many cameras and I can afford them, it's just everytime I buy a camera it has something I don't like about it and I always see him with a better one than me everytime I buy one, so I would just like to get them all for free like he does just for reviewing because I spend so much money on tech :P
