Professional Hd Video Camera Reviews

My digital camera is for documentation and promotion of my work as a professional artist as well as for personal use. The features I'm most interested in are high quality images with sufficient resolution for print publication (minimum 12 megapixels), auto and manual controls, an articulating viewer, a wide angle/telephoto lens (28mm560mm), and 1080i HD video. I also expect to get a suite of technology such as image stabilization and connectivity commensurate with other cameras in this class. I compared features of various cameras online and chose the Canon PowerShot SX20is based on the many positive reviews and recommendations. I suggest that you read many reviews and comments from many and various sources. Be sure to order a memory card when you order the camera or you won't be able to take pictures or videos. I got an 8GB, 20MB/sec. SanDisk to accommodate hefty HD video files. I only recently purchased the camera but so far it's performing as advertised. If it's as durable and dependable as the old Nikon Coolpix it's replacing then I'll be very satisfied. I have a lot of confidence in the technology in general and in the quality of most of the major brand cameras.

This camera is for underwater professional video. It is a full HD signal. SDI was what I needed. It is a perfect size and can be used with great optic. As all the time B & H was very fast for shipping. I received the camera 2 weeks after the order. Four to six were annonced.

I am not a professional, but needed a camera that took amazing HD video as well as pictures and this completely delivered. It is easy to use and very clear on how to operate. The 8 megapixel camera takes wonderful pictures. The lens cover tends to rattle but does not affect the quality. I wish the light that pops up automatically would pop down automatically too after taking a picture or video with light.

Very easy to use camera. Use it for personal and professional use. Love that it comes with the remote, because many of the HD video cameras don't have that now. Easy to upload to youtube, and transfer to computer. Have no complaints about the product. Also, have been buying from B&H for 20 years. They are great!

great pocket camera with HD video!

This camera is perfect for professional photos and video.

I am trying to get setup for semi-professional video creation and wanted to generate good quality audio. After watching a lot of mic reviews, I decided to order a pair of the Samson C02 mics. While these are sold as instrument (drums, acoustic guitar, etc) many people have given them favorable reviews for dialog and even live action. Having received mine, I have done a number of tests both for inside dialog as well as taking them outside to check their sensitivity with ambient sound. I am using a Sound Devices mixer so the whole sound chain is pretty quiet, and I did not hear very much self-noise from these mics while they were able to pick up very faint sounds outdoor such as leaves rustling and birds chirping. They are somewhat directional but certainly not in the same way as a proper shotgun mic. All in all I am very glad I purchased these and I expect them to be with me for a good while.

I use this mic system for professional video--after reading reviews for many different systems and knowing Azdens' reputation for having top quality products, I decided to go with this system. Many articles I've read say that it's better to go with a more professional wireless mic system, which I may do in the near future, but for now, this gets the job done--have tested it in my studio and the sound is superb. It only records in monaural, but that's no problem--I have a mono-to-stereo adapter that will ensure stereo audio for any pro video. As far as things that are not so great, I don't really have anything to say in that regard--I'm sure it will do well in the field, don't forsee any problems. Great product, highly recommended for any pro or hobbyist.

I purchased two of these cards to record HD video with our Panasonic Streaming Video camera. Both cards were formatted in the camera without fault. The first one has been used and performed flawlessly. We had been getting random record errors with slower SDXC cards. We have recorded continuously for an hour and fifteen minutes on the the new 200MB card with no problems.

I've used a 720P HD Flip Video camera for many years and have been quite satisfied with the performance. I use the camera to record repairs to homes and golf carts for the owners of rental homes in my program as well as capturing videos of our travels. This camera puts the Flip to shame for several reasons. The video quality is quite a step up and the ease of download and handling of the videos is so much easier it's ridiculous. The wide angle view captures the entire scene and the huge reduction in panning helps to keep continuity in the intended video.I would like to see a far more instructive manual for it's use. @
