Joystick function

[pepegot1]

HF G60 camcorder's joystick is mecurial. Most of the time it does not work. Too close to battery. Should have been where Mag button is and Mag button should have been where joystick is located.

Does it work on yours?

I no longer have my HF G50, but it was very much the same.  I really struggled with it.  I remember sometimes just removing my hand from the grip and then operating it (I guess the angle of how my thumb interacted with it while hand in the grip was often not ideal).

About the only thing you can do is provide Feedback to Canon.  Perhaps they'll change the button layout on future models.
