The Bottom Line While it's more expensive than its sub-$600 competitors, the Canon Vixia HF20 and Vixia HF200 deliver a more extensive feature set for the extra money. The HF200, which lacks internal memory, is probably a better buy than the HF20, though the HF20's all-black body is a bit classier looking. A solid hard-drive based HD camcorder, the Canon HG10 nevertheless has its share of annoying quirks. Though its video isn't perfect, the Canon FS200 is one of the better standard-definition consumer camcorders available. If storage amount, zoom range, and easy operation are on your list of needs before video quality, check out the Sony Handycam DCR-SR47.
