Reviews of the Canon Vixia HF11
-
CNET Review
The Good: Excellent video quality; fast focus; compact, attractive, and comfortable design.
The Bad: Wind filter not as dependable as previous Canon models; manual focus pretty useless.
The Bottom Line: Like its sibling the HF10, Canon's flash-based Vixia HF11 delivers excellent HD video quality and performance in a tiny package. However, the HF11 delivers a bit more value for its lower price.

Review Summary: If you already own the HF10, there is next to no reason to make the switch to the HF11. Everyone else, on the other hand, would do well to seek this camcorder out.
