Canon XH A1 review
, Jun. 7, 2007
Comments:
Canon's XH A1 is an excellent camcorder for entry-level professionals and independent filmmakers, with hard-to-beat prices for what it offers
Review Verdict: Canon provides seven gain levels: 36dB, 18dB, 12dB, 6dB, 3dB, 0dB and -3dB (although, irritatingly, you can only program three on the L/M/H switch). At its lowest gain, video looks incredibly smooth, and even as high as 3dB you can shoot in low light...

QuickTake:
Pros: Great picture. Impressive array of options, including preset focus and zoom. Easy handling. Good sound. All around fantastic package.
Cons: The only way to shift from XLR audio inputs to line mic.shotgun seems to be through the menu, which is tedious and time consuming. It would be great if there were an easy-access switch.
