Canon HF G60 Reviews
Great video camera, but,
I own a g40 & a g50 both good video cameras. I thought I would take a step up when I bought the g60. I can't make the (FeelWorld) work. They moved the joy stick to the left side which makes it so you can't use your right finger to manipulate the joy stick. Usually you hold the camera in your right hand. I'm wondering why they made it only with 15X optical zoom. BUT!! I took some great videos!!!!!!
good but XA50 feels better
It's a good camera but I've only used it once since writing this review. We will use every weekend though. But from that first use, I'd say that the Canon XA50 is a more pleasant experience. The preview output when livestreaming looks the same compared to an XA50. Watching the video online after the actual stream looked pretty bad but the culprit could be the black magic design atem mini pro or the software vmix with different settings. Or even youtube compressing the video. All I'm trying to say is that our livestream looked better with an xa50 and cerevo livewedge switcher. But like i said, it could be that there's different settings applied. Auto focusing is fine. Seems like the xa50 is faster at auto focusing. Navigating the menu with the nipple button is a good welcome but i wish it was a bigger button. It's the same size on the xa50 as well. Zooming is quick but louder than the xa50. I don't know if the built-in mic would pic it up so have external audio capture ready. So i guess you can tell i prefer the xa50 but if your budget is tight and you don't need pro audio xlr inputs, then this camera should be fine. We're actually gonna use this as our 3rd camera at the church.
Fantastic image quality but....
The stabilization could be better. And it's heavy.
Great Camera! Love the dual-pixel auto-focus!
Very pleased with my purchase. Excellent picture!
Beautiful and easy
Great camera being used in live-streaming. Beautiful picture
So far so good
We all read what it will do. This is what I’m giving up. I can not operate the camera remotely with my phone. The memory card has to be taken out of the camera to down load. One of the good things is that the batteries from my Vixia 30 are useable, the package doesn’t offer a camera charger. I do like the smooth molding of the camera body when holding on hand. Another thing I like is that l can record without sound.
Video Confidence
After speaking to a B&H representative and explaining my particular problems with the video I was shooting he had good sound advice. He followed my price range but then described some of the features that definitely would help with my particular video problems. I volunteer to video my daughter's plays and have found lighting to be a real problem. I found I could shoot with my iPhone but there are barriers there because of the smaller lens and automatic features that sometimes hinder more than help the problem. Anyway I watched some YouTube videos on the Canon G60 video camera and saw many features that can help my own particular problems shooting in a limited lighted auditorium. Thank you B&H for your expertise and help to get the best quality possible for my daughter's school plays and dances. I look forward to next year and giving the school some of the best video I can afford to provide. I also supply the DVDs and some flash drives the cast. I don't copyright so the video is free to the school & cast to copy and distribute to extended family that may not be able to come to the event. The drama teacher is very excited to see what we gone up with for next year as I have some sound issues. The B&H representative suggested I be on site at the school so I can describe the sound system they are using and can suggest the cables or equipment I can use to fix audio problems. I know the school have a very old sound system so the help will be appreciated. Who knows maybe with the advances in technology B&H may be able to suggest a sound system for the school and work with them to make it happen. Of course B&H would also then know exactly what I would need to have superb quality audio.
Great Camcorder!
Best camcorder I've ever had. Beautiful videos and very easy to use. Highly recommend.
