Canon Vixia HV30
CNET reviews the Canon Vixia HV30 and writes, “Don’t look for any great advances here: the Canon Vixia HV30 is a very minor upgrade from the admittedly top-notch HV20. It has a sleeker-looking black body, introduces 30p progressive mode, and supports the high-capacity BP-2L24H lithium-ion battery, but otherwise remains the same as its 2007 predecessor…Of course, that makes it a well-designed prosumer camcorder with a useful feature set, good overall performance, and excellent video quality.” Link.

Canon Vixia HV30>/h2>
Trusted Reviews has a review of the Canon Vixia HV30 and writes, “Now that most manufacturers are turning their attention away from tape Canon’s HV20 has managed to remain uncontested for some time as the best HDV camcorder around. Until now. But fortunately for Canon the latest contender to the HV20’s crown is its successor. So if the HV20 offered nearly the pinnacle of high-end consumer HDV, is there any room for the HV30 to show improvement?..Canon has clearly heeded the cliché ‘if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it’ with the HV30. Its predecessor was a great camcorder for serious video makers with less than £1,000 to spend. Now the HV30 can proudly take over its place. This could be the last great consumer-oriented HDV camcorder we see, as Canon’s own HF10 has finally allowed AVCHD to meet or even surpass the quality of HDV. But for now, the tape-based format is a safer bet for editing, and if you want to make the best HD video without a professional price tag, the HV30 is the camcorder of choice.” Link.
Macworld reviews the Canon Vixia HV30 and writes, “Like what we saw happen to VHS technology when the DVD became popular, MiniDV tapes are gradually becoming a technology of the past. Most camcorder manufacturers are turning to tapeless storage media, such as a hard drive, memory card or DVD storage. Despite this trend, Mac users still encounter compatibility issues with tapeless camcorders, which is why we feel it’s important to continue reviewing MiniDV camcorders, like Canon’s new Vixia HV30. Canon’s camcorder is a fine choice for die-hard MiniDV users, offering superb video quality and a bunch of nifty features. The HV30 proves you can still have a sophisticated product, even if it’s using older technology…In a world where consumer Mini DV camcorders are being phased out, the HV30 is easily a top choice. The camcorder’s impressive feature set and superb video quality should cater to both advanced and amateur video makers.” Link.
PC Advisor reviews the Canon Vixia HV30 and writes, “Our panel of experts judged the output of the Canon Vixia HV30 and deemed it’s video quality to be the best we’ve seen recently, earning an overall Very Good rating. Video colour in both normal and low-light settings was very pleasing, appearing vividly accurate compared to our control objects. Motion was smooth, and sound quality was decent…If MiniDV is important to your choice of camcorder, the Canon Vixia HV30 is an excellent choice. It shoots stellar high-definition video with vividly accurate colours, smooth motion; includes a microphone jack and accessory shoe; and is very user friendly. Unfortunately the Canon Vixia HV30’s awkward design makes for clumsy handling; and still images are slightly noisy.” Link.
Techradar reviews the Canon Vixia HV30 and writes, “We preferred the picture quality from this HV30 (MiniDV tape) compared to the Sony HDR-S11 (hard drive) camcorder we reviewed last month…If you want a very good camcorder, then we recommend the Canon HV30. It has a higher quality image than the latest HDD models at the same price. Better still, shop around for last year’s HV20. It is considerably discounted now but virtually identical, so you could pick up a bargain.” Link.
PC World reviews the Canon Vixia HV30 and writes, “The mix of image quality, controls, frame-rate flexibility, and format compatibility makes the Canon HV30 camcorder a top choice–capturing first place on our comparison chart–for home movies and indie filmmaking. The HV30 may be one of the last tape-based consumer HD camcorders, but it’s also one of the best HD camcorders, period.” Link.
