The Canon DC420 Camcorder was my first Digital Camcorder and I am impressed with video picture quality. The zoom feature is way beyond my expectations as well as
the audio quality. Easy to operate once you figure out the instruction manual. I
certainly have no idea what the people who wrote this manual were thinking when they were writing it! Would have been much easier if one section of the manual was devoted entirely to the video application and a separate section for still camera mode. The way it is written you have to "jump" all over the manual trying to figure out what's going on. Also, there should have been a SD card included and software when you download a DVD to computer. I had to obtain a program just to convert the VOB files from the DVD to files for Windows Media Player and Windows Movie Maker.

Other than those couple discrepancies it is an absolutely super video camera and I would very highly recommend it. I won't say the Canon Support Group was great but they tried their best and overall I was satisfied.

I am glad i got this camera. This camera picks up even my heartbeat. The mic is so sensitive and the picture quality is awesome. Low light or full sun, this camera can shoot anything. This thing gives stunning results, even when shot from the window of a car, cruising down the highway at 60-70 MPH. Clear picture...
I am glad i invested in this cam. Canon has never let me down :)

I love this camcord. Great performance in indoor video. Only drawback is the DVD media itself. I would like to use a memory stick, instead.
