Great camera for Prosumers

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought the Canon Vixia HFG20 because my Nikon D5100 doesn't focus fast or good enough for me. I like taking videos as well as stills. I chose this camera mainly because of the viewfinder eye piece, great for when its a bright day out. The swing out and reversible side monitor with touch screen works great and easy to use menus.
The only issue I have with the camera is a long process the connect to a computer. But with two(2) SD card slots, I just use a 32GB Sd card in slot A, with a 16GB backup SD card in slot B. I set the camera to record to the SD cards first. I can record four(4) hours with the 32GB card and find that's plenty of time. I then just insert the SD card into my computer and transfer the files over.
I also love that if you want to be ready for quick recording, you can leave the power on, close both the monitor and viewfinder and the camera will go into a standby mode, just swing out the monitor or slide out the eye piece and its ready to record. There's also a setting to record the previous three(3) seconds prior the pushing the record button. This is helpful if your waiting for something to happen.
Overall this is a great camera. I took it to Maui for a week and it ran great and I got some great video. I can't wait for my next vacation.
