    Does not support micro SD card with adapter. I had 64 gb and 200 gb micro SD card and didn't want to spend extra money to buy another card. You would need a SD card to work with this. It looked nice and small.

    I love this camera, it does everything I needed. Only reason I did not give it 5 stars is because I believe the volume could be louder on the playback speaker. It's a very minor con so I would definetly commend this camcorder.

    The Canon HF R70 is perfect for my video needs. MUCH sharper and in depth picture resolution than my cell phone and from my D3200 DSR camera. Its also easy to hold and gets right where I need it for close in shooting in cramped spaces and crowds. LOVE IT !!

    Great Camera, easy to use; zoom in/out location makes use a little awkward while trying to maintain camera stability...Display can be hard to see in direct sunlight

    Used for recording halftime shows so far which it does a good job. The tab for unlocking the battery seems flimsy at best so hoping that doesn't break.

    This is a good camera if you're just starting out, but if will afford you to do good work if you understand lighting and you're passionate about learning.

    For the price, this is one heck of a camera. The user guide is immense because of all of its capabilities. I love this camera ... though I am still learning how to (fully) use it.

    It is everything that I needed. the only thing I would have preferred is the battery to be charged off the camera. though i'm sure I could buy a charger for it. I would recommend.

    I need several video cable adapters in a hurry and the other Office products didn't have what I needed, should have gone straight to BestBuy. Would have saved a lot of time

    This Cannon is the ideal media for recording my son in action on the pitch. Coaches can gain immediate access to video because transmission and transfer are wireless!

    If you are in an area with moving lights you can't get a good photo. Tried to use at a reception and quality was not good.
