  • DO NOT COMPARE IMAGE QUALITY BY WATHCING THESE MOVIES. you do not know the settings and compression etc.

    It is ONLY intended to show STABILIZATION. Please do not post regarding colours and quality because it is totally STUPID.

    Criticaltinker, remember that Canon has the best HD lens quality (which is why Sony stopped Zeiss lens and started making their own lately, to try to catch the wagoon), the best bitrate with 24Mbit, is the only one to offer 24fps (or 25fps for PAL) cinema mode...

  • Wow, this is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks so much for uploading the comparison.. Not much difference.. but I think Sony may have the upper hand.

see all

  • you could make such a good horror moment while walking there

  • sony won! look at the sharpness! ftw SONY!!

  • SONY FTW!!

  • even the image stabilization can't be calculated because if you are holding with your hand...its subjective....you might have been morte shaky with one than the other...as well as shaky at diff times suring the recording, etc

  • @DLcine what about Panasonic? TM-700? Isn't that the best? So many diff cams, so many diff settings? I want to buy the best if i'm going to make an investment in one...the most important thing to me is HD vid quality and image stabilization and if Panasonic has the most MP..14.2...then isn't that the best?

    Please educate me

  • '

    both are same best digitalcameras

  • @rayman4449 It's also important to note that the S11 has an 6mp effective pixel count and the sony's only have 4mp. This is why the video from the S11 has alot better detail and looks so sharp. As far as 'low light' performance, the Canon S11 automatically switches to 30p (from 60i) to maintain video quality and at that frame rate actually has better low light performance than the Sony.

  • Regarding the IS of 'all the other canons', it's important to remember the new Canon S11 and S21 have all new IS. All the prior Canon models supposedly had IS but I could never tell any improvement when I turned it on. I spent many hours comparing the XR500v, CX520 and the S11 and opted for the S11 and was glad I did. I found that both the 500v and 520v cameras 'warp or bow' the image when the camera is moved. I think it was part of the Sony IS.

  • sony is dark, look at shadows.

  • @DEEJAYDAVEDENALI Had a chance to try out both, ended up buying the Sony HDR-XR500v. Why? The steadyshot blows all Canons I've tried out of the water. Built in GPS is actually useful for geotagging photos. Sony has a feature that will automatically take still photos as you record when it detects a smile.
