User questions & answers

Question:	What does the camera come with? it's a gift for my mom and I was wondering if I should get a bag for it or a memory card
Answer:	So - to answer his question directly - the answer is no. The buyer will need to buy a memory card.
Question:	What is the longest continuous recording file that you can create with this camera, assuming 64gb sdxc
Answer:	Hi R. N. Winters, depending on the type of videos to be recorder: XAVC S HD - 2 h 35 min, AVCHD (High Quality) - 8 h 15 min), AVCHD (standard) - 14 h 40 min. Hope this helps. -Ely
Question:	Can I record while the camera is charging? If I have a portable charger, could I have the camera plugged into that and still record
Answer:	I think the answers are confusing to some. Here's the scoop. You can use an external battery pack like the one you charge your Iphone with or you can plug it into a USB port or you can use the 110v adapter with USB cable plugged in. When you do those following things the camera is running off those power sources and not your battery. And yes, you can record while plugged into those external power sources. The battery will not charge when doing that and recording but that should not be a problem. Charge your battery at home. Now start recording and when your battery gets low plug into your external battery pack or USB and keep going. I own this camera and did the experiment. I use this in my car as a dash cam and it's plugged into my cigarette lighter and it runs non stop without using the battery.
Question:	Does it have a 3.5mm jack to plug in an external microphone
Answer:	This camcorder does not have an external microphone jack.

User questions & answers

Question:	I want to record my band can I record audio too off my mixerboard
Answer:	I had terrible results with that. I am using a Yamaha mixer straight into the camera. I am recording loud electric guitars. The VU meter on the camera is so crude as to be pretty useless. No matter how I set the VU meter or the master on the mixer, the audio would come out distorted badly. Nothing I tried worked. That was my main reason for buying the camera was to use a mixer to use two mics to record a speaker cab. I sent the camera back, the results were just too crude and useless. I ended up buying an upscale Panasonic UX180 that has stereo XLR inputs, a fully manageable recording system in camera with separate audio dials for each channel. My mixer works perfectly with it so I get video and audio on my SD cards to dump straight into Final Cut ProX, works like a dream. I simply could not find another camera that had professional audio recording capabilities using a mixer. I tried a budget JBC pro camcorder, what a horrible piece of junk, the view finder was completely worthless, image quality was terrible, the UX180 is a big camera with big pro features, worth every penny I paid for it. The V770 is a great camera on its own, but dumping audio into, was a huge fail for me, with no work around.
Question:	What the frame rate
Answer:	Max240
Question:	Is power supplied through the mic input, to operate a mic with out a battery? Or would you have to buy a mic with a built in power source
Answer:	The built in mic is excellent. That said, if you want an external mic, I'd suggest one like the Rode VideoMic. You have to supply your own power, there is no phantom power.
Question:	Does it have a jack for an external microphone
Answer:	Yes it does. External Microphone. Another for external headphones. It also has an external hot shoe for boom mic or lighting.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can an IR filter be screwed on the front
Answer:	This camcorder has a 43mm filter thread for you to attach filters.
Question:	How much better than the
Answer:	I've owned both the R700 & this R800 and the only difference I can find is the R800 records MP4 video only. There might be some difference in the settings, but I'm not sure of that. The R800 "seems" to be a 'little' better in low light, but not much (if any). You're getting a newer model camera. But if you already have an R700 and you are satisfied, don't waste your money.
Question:	Does this camcorder have night vision
Answer:	Thank you for your time. Please note that this unit does offer a "night" mode but does not have night vision specifically.
Question:	So it can definitely accommodate an external microphone
Answer:	From the manual... "You can connect to the camcorder's MIC terminal commercially available condenser microphones with their own power supply. You can connect almost any stereo microphone with a 3.5 mm plug, but audio recording levels may vary." Note: "WITH THEIR OWN POWER SUPPLY."http://gdlp01.c-wss.com/gds/0/0300025910/01/vixiahfr80-82-800-im-en.pdf

The Panasonic only records in 4k--but it can perform a "pan and scan" kind of cropping in order to export a 75 percent smaller file. 3. The ax53 overall is "easier to use" especially if you plan to record yourself. 4. The ax53 has a 20x optical zoom as opposed to a 10x 5. Overall, the ax53 is pretty much a lot more palmcorder for a little more money. 6. BEWARE--Sony employees will tell you "Yes. You can live stream with this camera" but they DON'T tell you "...IF you pay 99.00/year to subscribe to our live streaming service." That's embedded in the camera's firmware. So, no, it is NOT what most people think of as a "livestreaming" camera. The real question is, why are you buying a camcorder at all? Your phone probably has a camera that will do anything most people ever want or need. I bought this palmcorder for a couple of very, very specific needs.
Question:	I just received my camcorder. The lens seems loose ... or sort of rotates inside. Is this how it should be? I'm new to videoing
Answer:	Actually, it's better than normal. It's one of the reasons you should get this camera (although I returned it for a different reason)!! It's one of the best features of this camcorder that many camcorders do not have yet. It's called the BOSS system and it allows that lens point in the same INTENDED direction even though you are constantly shaking the camera. It's major optical stabilization. And, as you move to a different subject to record, the lens follows you. Not something easy to design. If you're curious why I am going to return the one I purchased, I just found out that it doesn't shoot in 4k when you are holding it and shooting. Can only do 4k when it's on a tripod. Otherwise, it's just HD. I was wondering why it was so cheap and now I know. The camcorders you can hold and shoot in 4k are pretty expensive. I hate to pay up so much for 4k to hold and shoot though but 4k makes a huge difference in my opinion. One seems like you're there. The other video seems like it's a recording or representation of life. I'm still debating what to do...

With 4K resolution, amazing features and a mobile-friendly design, the VIXIA HF G50 gives you stunning video quality on the go.

4K UHD 30p Recording

The combination of a large-format, high-sensitivity CMOS Sensor and Canon’s DIGIC DV 6 Image Processor with Over Sampling HD Processing enables 4K UHD recording with outstanding image quality.

The DIGIC DV 6 Image Processor instantly analyzes a scene, taking into account dozens of image parameters to provide fully optimized results, capturing every detail while reducing image noise, even in low light.

An advanced automatic white-balance system analyzes different areas of an image and makes adjustments where they are necessary to capture beautiful, natural scenes with true-to-life color.

Genuine Canon 4K-compatible 20x Optical Zoom Lens and Wide 29.3mm Angle of View1

The VIXIA HF G50 camcorder features a Genuine Canon 4K-compatible 20x Optical Zoom lens. It offers a 35mm equivalent of 29.3–601mm, with a minimum object distance of just 23.6 inches (600mm)1 and 0.4 inches (10mm) at wide end. Incorporating advanced elements and coatings, it helps reduce flare, ghosting and other distracting effects to deliver sharp, clear images with minimal distortion.

Advanced Full HD

The VIXIA HF G50 represents Canon's Full HD System, delivering truly excellent image quality and reproduction for most any application. Its Over Sampling HD Processing utilizes the image data delivered by the powerful 4K UHD CMOS Sensor to enable Full HD recording that is nothing short of stunning.

Intelligent 5-axis Image Stabilization

Canon's SuperRange Optical Image Stabilizer helps correct camera shake quickly, so even handheld video taken at long focal lengths can be sharp and steady. The VIXIA HF G50 camcorder’s DIGIC DV 6 Image Processor enables its versatile Dynamic Image Stabilization mode. Providing continuous adjustment throughout the entire zoom range to correct a broad range of motion, with extra compensation applied at wide-angle focal lengths, the Dynamic Image Stabilization system stabilizes rotational camera shake. Controlling rotational camera shake helps ensure smooth, virtually distortion-free video, even when you're walking while shooting.

DIGIC DV 6 Image Processor

The VIXIA HF G50 camcorder incorporates Canon's DIGIC DV 6 Image Processor, which is integral to providing high image quality, advanced performance and convenient operability. This advanced core technology component provides the image-processing power and speed that enables features such as 4K UHD video acquisition, image stabilization and slow and fast motion recording. It also captures high amounts of light for brighter, virtually noise-free images even in dark scenes.

8-bladed Circular Aperture

The VIXIA HF G50 camcorder features an 8-bladed Circular Aperture, which helps reduce the "starburst" effect found in camcorders with non-circular apertures. The result is that points of light in out-of-focus areas, usually the background of your shot, are circularly blurred, creating beautiful images with an authentic and artistic feel. The professional touch of a manual focus ring allows accurate and precise control. For extra flexibility, the manual focus ring can be easily set to control zoom instead.

3.0-inch LCD Capacitive Touchscreen

The VIXIA HF G50 camcorder features a bright, 3.0-inch capacitive LCD touchscreen that's clearly visible with rich, natural color reproduction wherever you go. Its streamlined user interface makes choosing focal points, tracking moving subjects, and shooting and watching your videos easy and fun. Clear explanations pop up when selecting shooting modes and recording formats, so videographers can feel the confidence to create impressive videos.

Tiltable Electronic Viewfinder

The VIXIA HF G50 camcorder features a 0.24-inch, approximately 1.56 million-dot color electronic viewfinder with approximately 100% field of view coverage for detailed, accurate composition judgment. The viewfinder can be tilted up to 45° from its normal resting position to enable a great amount of shooting freedom. Settings can be adjusted with the handy joystick, so you won’t have to stop looking through the viewfinder. Because it is positioned where the thumb naturally rests, you can shoot and adjust easily–even with one hand.

Five Assignable Buttons, Joystick, Lens Ring and Custom Dial for Creative Control

The VIXIA HF G50 camcorder’s many control features help make professional customization and functionality easy. Equipped with five assignable buttons for quick-access and custom shooting, the camcorder can be tailored to your specific needs. The joystick enables control of camera settings on the viewscreen without having to use touch panel controls. The manual focus/zoom lens ring allows you to make precise focus and zoom adjustments. A Custom Key and Dial feature allows you to assign functions to an easily accessible key and adjust the settings with a control dial.

Slow and Fast Motion, including Interval Recording for Both 4K and Full HD

Slow and Fast Motion Modes allow the VIXIA HF G50 camcorder to record a different frame rate than the playback frame rate for a fast or slow-motion effect during playback. Since the camcorder is recording real frames and modifying the playback rate, there is virtually no quality loss and maximum image quality is maintained. Additionally, interval recording allows you to record frames at specified intervals, providing time-lapse recording of up to 1200x and slow-motion down to 0.4x of the original speed.

MP4 "FHD (1920x1080)" 60p (35 Mbps) Recording

With the VIXIA HF G50 camcorder, you can record in MP4 format in 60p at up to 35 Mbps. 1080/60p recording captures twice the amount of information as 60i, and with images captured at a rate of up to 60 frames per second, diagonal noise is virtually eliminated so even fast-moving subjects show up crisply with motion and patterns clearly recorded. This greater sense of detail and faithful rendering of moving edges, plus enhanced color and fine tonal gradation, gives your video everything Full HD has to offer.

HD (1280x720) Recording (8 Mbps)

The VIXIA HF G50 camcorder supports 1280x720 HD resolution recording at 8 Mbps. Reaching approximately 7.62 megapixels, it’s ideal for film projects, weddings and more shoots that require high quality video production.

Dual SD Card Slots

The VIXIA HF G50 camcorder allows you to record video directly to widely available SD, SDHC and SDXC memory cards with capacities ranging from over 32GB to 2TB. They are available in ultra-fast reading and writing speeds and make it easy to share video.

[Disclaimers]
