Summary: Amazing camcorder but one simple flaw
Comment: Believe everything you read about this camcorder - the video quality is amazing, 40Gb is more than enough to store a few trip's worth of HD video, the image stabilization works well, etc. etc. I've used it a lot and am very happy with it.
I'm dinging this camcorder a point because in order to transfer files to your PC it needs to be plugged into the AC adapter. I've no idea why. I dread the thought of mislaying the AC adapter, or being at some newsworthy event and not being able to share the footage. It's one more thing that can go wrong. Canon needs to issue a firmware patch for this - it's just plain silly.
If this is a deal-killer, consider the flash based Canon Vixias. While I haven't tried them much, they are much lighter than the hard drive versions, and with 16Gb flash cards costing $30-40 these days, there's no reason to go with a hard drive anymore. Plus, if the camera packs up, at least you can pull out the SDHC card and stick it in your PC/Mac. My $0.02.

Summary: Awesome Camera
Comment: I had a Canon miniDV camera for a while, and while it was ok, I really hated the poor quality of the video. I loved that this camera was Full HD. It takes beautiful video, even in low light. It's a great consumer camera. If you take video for special occasions (like Xmas, Birthday, etc), this is a great camera.
Also, I have a Mac and I've had no problems importing or editing on iMovie or Final Cut Pro. Everything has turned out great. I love that I no longer need to buy tapes. I do like miniDV tape quality, but for the amount that I use my camera, I'd say skip it and by the hard drive version. Love it.

Summary: Ruined our trip to Paris!!!
Comment: My wife and I purchased this camera with the intention of using it for our upcoming trip to France. We had a Sony camcorder that we liked, but was getting to be outdated. So, we wanted to upgrade to the HD quality and a hard disk so we wouldn't have to haul a bunch of tapes with us. Well...the quality of the camcorder and ease of use was great! However, during our second day in Paris, it decided to stop working! It said "Access Error". We had no way to capture and document the last 8 days of our vacation because this brand new camcorder stopped working! We couldn't even access the footage we had taken! So, it is at Canon as we speak for repairs under warranty, but even upon getting it back I'll probably never use it for a big trip like that again for fear that it may happen a second time. I called Canon Customer Care to try and get some sort of compensation for our trouble, and they didn't do a thing for us! I would strongly discourage anyone from purchasing this camcorder if they are planning on using it for documenting anything major in their lives. BE WARNED!!!!

Summary: Canon Hg-10 camcorder
Comment: The camera is great, easy to use, the zoom is high quality, couldn't be a better camera. But, the software is terrible. I have yet to make one movie from my vacation, Honeymoon, or my kids soccer game because the software does not work. When trying to piece together diffiernt scenes it just won't do it. Get the camera but plan on getting seperate vidieo software.

Summary: User-friendly, high-quality, light & compact: perfect for anyone who wants to film!
Comment: This is the first camcorder I have ever owned as well as operated in my life. I've said it before and I'll say it again: I'm not an electronics expert, so I won't write a very technical review as many others have.
I will just tell you what I would want to know if I considered buying this item: I think it's great, it works, it's easy to use (there are many more functions I haven't even explored yet, but if you're a more experienced cinematographer I'm sure you can find them helpful), it shoots great footage (also in HD if you want). An "unsung" attribute that this camcorder has is that is also takes amazing photos! The colors it captures are bright, great contrast, and you don't need to correct them in Photoshop!
The camcorder is MAC compatible and the battery life is also very very good.
The only thing that constitutes a slight inconvenience is that in order to download the footage on your computer, you must have the camcorder's power cable hooked up.
Besides that I can say that I'm very happy with it and the quality of the video.
