Canon Vixia HF S30 HD Camcorder

Canon Vixia HF S30 HD Camcorder is your way of being overly creative when it comes to video capturing but not go overboard with your budget! The camera has relay recording that allows you to switch from one recording mode or media to the next for smooth, uninterrupted capture of any moving or still shots you want to preserve. There are a lot of user-friendly shooting functions that you can expect from a standard camera with features like Instant AF to give you a better way of recording and actually enjoying the moment as you record without having to worry about camera settings.

Canon Vixia HF S30 HD Camcorder Pros and Cons:

Pros:	Cons:
The touch screen is great. You don’t need to use the scroll bar on the right edge. You just run your finger up or down anywhere on the screen and it will scroll One of the best features of the camera is the viewfinder The BP-819 battery was more than enough for my purpose It can upload footage and photos wirelessly The picture quality is, of course, amazing, but that’s to be expected	They all come with thick manuals (211 pages) in small print and a ton of instructions When connecting the Component video cable, or the RCA cable to your TV, you cannot close the camera screen. I guess this is because the remote control sensor is on the screen. This remote control has very limited playback functions: Play and Pause only

(4 out of 5 stars) Awesome HD Camera

I bought the VIXIA HF S30 Camcorder about a month ago to take with me on a trip to Orlando Disney World and Universal Studios. I loaded it with 2 x 32GB SD cards and the optional 5.1 microphone. I also bought the optional battery charger and took it with me instead of the power supply that comes with it. Of course, and optional battery the BP-819 was a must have since……..

(1 of 5 stars) FRAGILE lens cover, TERRIBLE touch screen menus. Bought the HF-M31 version of this camera.

Camera/tripod blew over in the wind and some sand got into the lens cover. Wouldn’t open correctly. VERY FRAGILE! Took it to Canon repair (camera was 6 months old, still under warranty) and they want $249 to repair it!! If I’d known how fragile the shutter-style lens was, I’d either have put a UV filter over it or….
