Canon DC40 Review at PCMag
PCMag has a review of the Canon DC40 and writes, “The overall quality is quite good, although the Sony DCR-DVD505, with its larger LCD screen and an easy-to-use touch screen, is just a bit better. I was disappointed in the DC40’s Night or Super Night mode. It’s designed for use in low-light situations, but gave me streaky, almost surreal footage. … For a camcorder, DC40 gives you lots of tools for taking great still images. I was particularly impressed with the burst mode. In normal frame mode, the 4.2-second recycle time is just average for a digital camera, although good for a camcorder. But it also has a speedy burst mode, even with the flash turned on. This makes it usable for shooting sports snapshots. … Although performance needs to improve, the Canon DC40 is one of the first miniDVD camcorders to let you shoot decent stills.”
