Canon HV20 Review
By Ian Bell
June 04, 2007
The Canon HV20 uses a 2.96-megapixel CMOS sensor combined with the DIGIC DV II processor, first found on Canon's $10,000 pro-level XL H1.
Snip:
"XL H1. It also has optical image stabilization, a must when shooting high-definition video since every shake is even more noticeable. This camcorder is no beauty like the Panasonic HDC-SD1 but it’s far from a monstrosity. Other than a few decals noting the HDV format it really wouldn’t stand out nestled on the posts at your local CE emporium. The body is primarily silver with dark gray accents. Some have complained the camcorder feels cheap but that’s nitpicking—it’s a sub $1,000 USD camcorder, not an M1 tank or the new $1,699 USD JVC GZ-HD7US."
