This camera is great when it comes to picture quality and eas of use. Even the still shots are great. I can't find a major issue with the functions or quality of the camera. It is a great bridge from advanced hobby shooter to a pro level camera. In fact you can do work with this that will rival many pro cameras. But, here is my issue. Many video editors use a Mac set-up and Canon knows this as well as anyone. I wouldn't trade my Mac for 50 PCs. So why would Canon be cheap and not include software to downlaod the movie files from the camera or an SD card. My Adobe sofyware wouldn't even do it correctly so I dropped another $60 for software to do this. It should be part of the package. My other issue is one you can fix with a $10 purchase on eBay. The camera's hotshoe is a mini version and not full size. I use mics that have a full sized connector so I had to by an adaptor. For a camera of this quality I think Canon should assume people will use ad on components that need a full sized hotshot. Other than those two things this is a wonder camera.
What's great about it: Easy to use and good price.
