By pobut (cnet.com.au) Read the full review

I have used this camera in a wide variety of travels. Images can be breathtaking if you plan ahead. Don't pan too quickly, keep an extra battery with you, keep the quick-start turned on and realize that it is a low-end HD camera; you won't be...

great image for the now $300 USD price

not as capable for AVCHD MB/s like HF100

Canon HR10

By Chris Jager (goodgearguide.com.au)

The DVD camcorder is like a wounded beast that refuses to die. Despite having fallen from favour in the casual market (where 'HDD' is the new black), ...

Good quality video, extensive range of manual options, HDMI capable

Mini-SD card slot prohibits recording options, viewfinder poorly placed, a bit on the chunky side

The Canon HR10 is a decent enough DVD camera, offering impressive high-def visuals at a relatively affordable price. However, there are several competing models on the market which offer a superior performance.

By Lori Grunin (cnet.com.au)

Though the Canon HR10 is a decent camcorder, there are better choices for the same money because format performance and compatibility issues make it hard to recommend a DVD-based AVCHD model.

Nice video and decent photo quality ; Manual exposure controls ; 24p support ; Full-size HDMI connector

DVD initialisation and finalising operations are slow ; Relatively short battery life ; Can't charge while camcorder is powered on

If it weren't for the DVD/AVCHD double whammy, the HR10 might have more to recommend it. For now your best bet is to stick with one of Canon or Sony's tape-based HDV models, or at least avoid the DVD issue and opt for one of the hard-drive-based options.

The third model in Canon's consumer HD camcorder line-up, the HR10 records high-definition video on mini DVD disks.Canon's new HR10 high-definition video camcorder has many features in common with the HG10 and HV20 models we have already reviewed. All...

Video quality from the test camcorder was similar to the recordings we made with the HG10 and HV20. Pictures were sharp and detailed with elevated saturation and contrast. These qualities were duplicated in still shots from the camera and confirmed by...

But instead of recording to tape or hard disk drive, the HR10 uses 8cm mini DVD disks as its recording media.
