      Camcorder Review: Canon XL H1 HDV

      By Andrew Burke

      Review summary: Although we used a tripod for most of the shots, we went handheld for a portion to test how well the camera felt as we moved around. Not surprising, the image stabilization offered by the 20x HD lens was top notch. Canon has placed all the important ...

      Pros: Excellent Resolution On-camera controls Canon HD lens

      Canon XL-H1

      By Laurence Grayson

      Pros: Outstanding video quality, interchangeable lenses, HD/SD SDI output, timecode sync and Genlock, dedicated switchgear, superb lens, progressive scan SD.

      Cons: Expensive, unbalanced front-heavy design, 2.4in LCD can make focus tricky, only one HD lens currently available.

      Verdict: A unique HDV camcorder that's just as comfortable in the field as it is cabled to a multi-cam studio setup. Professionals will find a lot to like in the XL-H1, while enthusiasts and semi-pro events videographers would be better off looking at a less ...
