    Good quality overall in pictures, could be better microphone, don't like that the default is to record on internal memory so I have to constantly change to SD card setting

    Get this camcorder if you want to make the best, sharpest and clearest videos you have ever seen before. Don't just read about it. Pick one up and see for yourself. It is THAT good.

    love the motion stabilizer, Great lens which creates a wonderful picture and it has a myriad of options. A bit difficult to maneuver through the sub menus however. Custom buttons are awkwardly placed on the unit. Battery is small and drains quickly. Overall a good quality camera for the cost and I am happy with the purchase.

    I bought this camera for filming hunts. So far the I've used it on several whitetail hunts and I could not be happier. The picture quality is great and those early morning and late afternoon low light times are not an issue.

    I bought a HI Capacity battery and 64 Gig memory when I got the camera and after using it for 45 minutes straight I still have tons of battery and storage time left. SOOOO easy to operate. Haven't had a chance to check some of the bells & whistles but will do so soon. GREAT CAMCORDER! SO GLAD I GOT IT!

    So far, it is very easy to use. My husband loves it. We don't have to bring a camera and a camcorder anymore because you can record and take photo with this device.

    I just upgraded from a really old Sony camcorder. My family could not believe the videos I took from our last Cruise. Excellent for family videos and maybe professional. Love the filters it has in creative mode.

    I had to replace my old camcorder, and after checking around and reading reviews chose this one. It has been great for what I need. It is used for filming sports action, and works great.

    I recently purchased this for my church and it is awesome. The low light specs work well for a church setting and the features just keep coming. Just recently picked up a boom mic and some lenses for some added support.

    I'm a videographer and bought this camera to supplement my main SLR camera. It turns out, I may prefer this one. The picture quality is great and even the in-camera microphone is decent. The 32GB internal memory is enough to record over 2 hours, continuously. There are two additional SD card slots if I want to record even more. Wow. I love this camera.

    The Canon Vixia HF G20 is a very nice camera. I am not sure about the life of the flip shutter cover, and I'm not crazy about the overall size of the camera (wish it were smaller), but the clarity and ease of use are terrific.
