    I’m out this figuring out what is the bottom line camera of it’s type we should probably yes but since it’s a Canon they turned out to include a lot of manual adjustmet Features including the audio. I am way beyond pleased with his camera. I shot video professionally for 30 years and this is a lot more than I expected. Plus the service at the store was very nice.

    I've used this camera for shooting little segments and for taking random photos. The picture is good and doesn't blur as bad when I move quickly. I'm not a fan of the playback option, once downloaded, only being in small segments.

    Every year or so I get a new video camera to record my vacations with, and I always try to level up and get something slightly better than the last one. This camera is really pretty to look at and has some features my last camera didn't have. The quality is great and the sound is super nice. Definitely exactly what I was looking for.

    This is a very versatile camera. It has excellent resolution, and the optical zoom insures an excellent clear image. People tend to take pics and videos on their phone, but they can never do what dedicated cameras can do. It's small enough to fit in a large pocket.

    I purchased the canon VIXIA HF R800 to record my sons high school basketball games and it has been flawless. Ive had to learn all the advantages this little guy gives me when recording a game. I have nothing but good things to say about my purchase and the price i paid
