Canon - Elura 50 Mini DV Digital Camcorder —
Strengths: Size is very small, shutter speed is fast, cutom modes are perfect, love the looks, love the locations of the buttons, MiniDV, both Firewire and USB cable ports. Supports both Mac and Windows.Weaknesses: tight accessories (no bag, etc.), low res images
Summary: I want to tell you guys that this camcorder is perfect for people who crave small camcorders yet they are on a budget. This camcorder has a lot of modes to choose from. The shutter speed is fast. The general key locations are right at your finger tips. Though some people complain that the motor sound can be heard, but I couldn't hear it in movies that I took. I even tryed recording movies in the SD Media card and tryed to take a MiniDV cassette. Nothing was heard.
The only thing I was disappointed was the lack of accessories included with Elura 50. The images were low res. (But still good for web view only.) Also, there is no light coming from the camcorder so, I had to buy an external camcorder mountable light source. Except that, I think this is a great camcorder.
Also liked the fact that they provided both USB (for images) and Firwire port (for videos). I also liked the fact that they provided cables for TV and VCR.
