Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Canon DC40 4.3MP DVD Camcorder w/10x Optical Zoom
Customer Review: Fantastic. Easy to Use. A+
Summary: 5 Stars
Excellent.
Easy to use. Easy to use instruction manual too. I tried out a SONY camcorder, and found the CANON much easier.
Switching between camcorder, and still photos is as easy as flipping a switch.
Photos are excellent! I have printed out 5X7s and 8X10s. I take a lot of photos, and they come out great. The flash is small and only reaches so far. Photos may be blurry or dark if the flash can not recharge in time, or you are too far away. Turning on a light helps this.
No firewire. However, you dont' really need one. It's dvd. After you finalize your dvd, you just slip it into your computer dvd drive, or put it into your dvd player. . .and there you go. You are ready to play your home movies.
Applause for the remote control! This remote works fast. I used to have a high-end digital camera, and the remote was always slow to respond. This remote takes photos great. Get a tripod, and let everyone be in the photo! It's away. It works with both video, and still photos.
Drawbacks: Price. (Ouch) It is the top of line, right now, however. I think it blows the SONY away.
You do have to pay for the upgrade on MYDVD, if you plan on editing a lot. However, you can use any DVD editing program that you like
Otherwise, I can see no drawbacks.. I love my CANON D40
Added 10/2007 :
be sure not to drop this camcorder. I have had other camcorders in the past and have dropped them with nothing breaking. However, I dropped this twice, a short drop onto carpet, and each time the unit broke. It locked up, and could not do anything. Same problem both times. That heavens, I only had to pay to have it repaired once.
