The compact Canon ZR400 camcorder performs beautifully in the great outdoors, but Canon continues to drop the ball when it comes to low-light shooting.
Canon's HV20 camcorder is a great choice for HD-happy amateurs, but its low-light performance could have been better.
While it's more expensive than its sub-$600 competitors, the Canon Vixia HF20 and Vixia HF200 deliver a more extensive feature set for the extra money. The HF200, which lacks internal memory, is probably a better buy than the HF20, though the HF20's all-black body is a bit classier looking.
A winner when it comes to size, price, and quality, the Canon Elura 90 is an excellent choice if you're looking for a compact MiniDV camera and don't mind occasionally fumbling with awkward controls.
Compact and full-featured, the relatively inexpensive Elura 80 is an excellent choice if you don't shoot often in low-light situations.
The compact, comfortable Elura 85 is a worthy alternative to the more expensive Elura 90 if you don't need that camera's more versatile lens and stronger night shooting mode.
If the Optura 30 is good, the Optura 40 is better, thanks to its video light. But if you don't find yourself shooting in a lot of low-light situations, it may not be worth the cash.
If you're looking for a competent, compact MiniDV camcorder, this is it--but smart buyers will drop $50 more on the ZR400.
A very good pocket camcorder that, in a pinch, can double as a decent snapshot camera. With a higher-resolution LCD and a video light, the Optura 500 is a better bet, though.
It's expensive, but the Canon Pixma MP810 is still a great, photocentric, all-in-one printer for discerning photo hobbyists and home users who want both excellent print quality and fast prints. You can get an all-in-one photo printer for less money if you
Canon ZR200 Review
The good: Superb color quality; choice of automated and manual shooting modes; low price; solid battery life; supports add-on lenses and filters.
The bad: Few manual controls; bottom-loading tape compartment; no accessory shoe; poor low-light performance; captures low-resolution stills.
The bottom line: Canon's affordable, compact ZR200 performs beautifully when the lights are bright, but you're probably better off with its less expensive sibling, the ZR100.
