Camcorder Reviews

I recently purchased the Canon Vixia HF200 digital camcorder. What can i do, as far as changing settings go, to optimize the quality and get the best out of my new camcorder… Also any tips such as low-light filming suggestions and stuff like that would be immensely helpful.
I will be importing to a mac computer by the way.
Thanks!

I currently have a Sony Dcr-sr36 and want to buy a wide angle or fish eye lens. But i’m planning on upgrading to a canon hand held camcorder this christmas. So, can i use a Sony lense on a Canon Camcorder?

I’m going to buy the Canon HD HF20 on Black Friday, but I have a single core desktop at home with Windows XP. Will I be able to edit basic home movies with it? And how hard is it to get the raw footage onto a DVD? Can I record in standard definition video with an HD camcorder?

I select the black and white effect option, the screen goes black and white, but the second I press record it flips back to colour?
Any ideas?
Thanks guys.

I have several Canon 220 Camcorder (with mini-dvds) but my camcorder was stolen, and the dvds must be finalized in order to able to watch them. Is there a way to do so without the camcorder itself? Any software I could use for this purpose? Thanks in advance!
