Canon Powershot SX200 IS Test Video 720p

This is a test video from my new Canon Powershot SX200 IS. Full wide angle.

Wow, even the sound is kinda good. Unlike some reviews that said otherwise. What speed class is your card?

[ezzelinyt]

The sound is pretty decent, as long as you're not at a very loud setting, such as a concert. In that case, it clips pretty bad. Otherwise, it's mono uncompressed audio at 44100Hz, which is pretty good, although it's clear it's not the highest quality mic out there. I'm using a Class 6 Patriot 16GB SDHC card.

To everyone asking about the choppiness, it's your computer, not the card or the camera. It plays back smoothly on my computer and on Youtube for me. Make sure your computer can handle 720p video.

what is the frame fate foor the video on this thing? cause the vid dont look that good except for the detail and quality

[ezzelinyt]

30FPS. How would it not look good except for detail and quality? If it's choppy, it might be your computer or internet connection. 720p video takes a lot of processor power to play.

Do you prefer the Canon SX200 or Panasonic ZS3?

[ezzelinyt]

Well, it was between the Canon SX200, the Panasonic ZS3/TZ7, and the Samsung HZ10W/WB500, and I bought the Canon, so I think that's your answer. :) But yeah, I preferred the image quality, manual controls and video quality of the SX200. The SX200 cannot zoom or autofocus during filming, but that's not something I do very often. Anyway, you can always stop filming, zoom, and start filming again. And the ZS3 has a problem with focusing during videos, where it will sometimes just go out of focus.

i have this camera, but i don't know how to upload videos from he camera to youtube. how did you upload this video ??

[AweSomo84]

very nice im looking in to buying this camera

[drionshk]

if you record at a concert with a ton of bass, will it drown everything out?

[Justimusfilms]

How did you render this? Cause when i upload 720p the 360 looks horrible and 720p not. I shoot 720p whith 30fps. What format you use and all? I need help cause i upload a lot :/ your video looks great in 360p too.

[wexaaaa]

I have this camera ! Just amazing !

[wexaaaa]

@KiyomiTakada Yes. 12x !

[chocoluff]

it's very good at 720p.

[zaraki888]

@KiyomiTakada No it can't. That's why I returned it and I bought the lumix tz7. It can zoom in during filming but I have to say, don't buy that one either... It's a waste of money for bad quality.
