Canon DC330 Camcorder Review

With memory card and internal hard drive camcorders making a push to the front of the line, DVD-based models will soon find themselves occupying the clearance shelves. In fact, there are only a handful of camcorders left that record solely to DVD, and...

Canon DC330

The DVD drive is too close to the microphone and you pick up the 'whirring' of the disk on the mic the whole time your recording

Canon DC330

Massive optical zoom. Good features/special effects. Will fit into a patch pocket and is very light. Good viewing screen - bright enough to use anytime - I went to Bosnia in July and had no problems filming in midday sun. Handy, easy to use remote...

Feels a bit plasticky. On zoom you really do need to have some form of tripod or other method of steadying the camera once you get to 10X and above - a beanbag type of pad to rest it on works fine. (This is true of any camera).

Canon DC330

Feels a bit plasticky. Image stability at large zoom difficult to handle without tripod.

Affordable but not a great camcorder

I am a huge Canon fan and when saw this camcorder in the market could not resist from buying one. Apart from the Canon make, the thing which attracted me to buy this was its reasonable price. Its quite cheap than what's available in the market. ...

poor video quality
