Brief introduction

Canon has been a famous brand from Japan since 1933. So far, this Japanese brand has made a name for itself and gained exposure around the world. Therefore, when it comes to video recorders, Canon is among the best options.

Canon offers a number of video recorders series aiming to target different types of customers. Thus, its prices vary from affordable ones to high-end ones. 

Criteria for selecting a Canon’s video recorder

Selecting isn’t challenging for experts or record freaks. However, it gets quite tough to opt for a suitable one for newbies. Thus, that’s why we have this list that will make your life a lot easier

  • Size: You should go for video recorders which are flexible, light enough so that they are easy to move when you bring them along for trips, vacations, holidays,... In contrast, for experts or heavy users, video recorders with bigger screens and added features should be ideal options.
  • Aperture (f): When selecting, you should prioritize those with decent apertures for better quality of both recording and taking photos. 
  • Resolution: The resolution will define the quality of images and videos. The better the resolution your video recorders have, the better videos you get.
  • Digital sensor and lens: These are two factors that need considering the most when buying a new video recorder because they determine the videos’ quality you will get.
  • Shake reduction: Rarely can we realize whether our recordings are shaked or not. Only by looking at the final products can you tell the difference. Therefore, you should go for recorders armed with decent shake reduction.
