The strong compass point of the HV30 , says the team , is that it has the HV20 ’s excellent HD CMOS image detector at its core , and it turn in bang-up video quality as a outcome , even under low - firing experimental condition . The new 30p recording feature , say by Canon to be designed for on-line video production , also seemed a unspoilt halfway mansion between full 60i and 24p recordings , and a welcome accession . Camcorderinfo also matt-up that despite many camcorder switch to HDD storage , the miniDV resolution retain by the HV30 is all right , fence that tape offer professional like better double contraction via HDV , instant archiving and a higher driblet - underground than , say DVD . Still imagery , captured to miniSD card , looked moderately good , though like most camcorder , you would n’t favor it over a right still camera .
They found the camera handled passing well under automatic mastery , and while the list of manual control options is good , their primary bitch was that the photographic camera design still except a right focus tintinnabulation , and has a fiddly joystick control . Its construction felt “ chintzy and bunglesome ” with viewfinder use somewhat stunted by its placement . Saying that , Canon has meliorate the LCD viewing screen by widening its acceptation slant and minify solarisation problem . Battery life , and portability were deemed effective , with the battery running for one hour , fifty minute in their mental test — almost indistinguishable to the HV20 .
Their conclusion : the HV30 is more than just the HV20 in a new black paint job , since it offers a bunch of intention improvement ( like a hotshoe cover that ca n’t fall down off ) and some extra features such as the 30p mode . It may even make it to Camcorder of the Year 2008 . [ Camcorderinfo ]
