Canon XF105 First Impressions Camcorder Review

At the Canon Expo in New York City, we got a chance to check out the XF105-a new compact pro model that is loaded with manual controls. Unfortunately, the camcorder is stuck with a single CMOS sensor instead of the three-chip system found on Canon's...

We'd be more considerate to the XF105 if it had loads of new features that we haven't seen before on a pro model. Yes, the camcorder has built-in 3D assistance and an infrared record setting, but those two features don't qualify as "game-changing" or...

The XF100 and XF105 were considered the smallest professional Canon camcorders until the Canon XA10 was released on the market. The XA10 is more compact than the previous models, but how does it stack up in regards to usability, functionality and...

First of all, you should know that this camera is made for professionals, but I am sure that won’t stop the tech savvy everyday Joe from purchasing one to do his home videos. The good thing about this camcorder is that it is feature-filled enough to...
