If I buy a Thunderbird-to-FireWire adapter, will iMovie automatically recognize my older HV20 camcorder, or at least, know what to do to capture the DV? I no longer have the DVD that came with the camcorder. I want to save all my tapes to disc so tha...
I'm considering buying the XC15, but I'll need audio and a top handle, and the XC15's included audio unit (the MA-400) is bulky and not a handle. Could I replace that audio unit with the hande/audio unit of a Canon C100? Do they use the same handle-t...
Hello, I'm hoping to get some help with an issue with image flicker on a Canon XA35 camcorder. It happens randomly and only seems to affect 1 frame at a time - alternating between a greenish and bluish tint in the image. At first I thought maybe it w...
Hello there...just got this camera and having an issue getting the test video downloaded to my computer. Using a SanDisk Ultra 128 GB card. When I connect the camera to the computer, it sees the file folders but says they're empty. On my Chrome book,...
I have finally decided to sell my old dead EX1Hi (great camera for the many years it worked) but there is a tape in it. Is there any way that I can eject the tape with no power to the unit? Thanks in advance.
The video files from my XA10's internal hard drive have disappeared. Is there a way to recover them? The only thing I can think of re: what happened is that I tried to transfer some old XA10 files from my Mac to the XA10, and literally everything dis...

Last night I shot 8 minutes of fireworks with my Vixia HF G20 using M Mode. Most of the video turned out well and the audio was assume as I was almost directly underneath the display. I was using M mode and made no other changes to the defaults. A...
I've turned time code on but cannot turn it off. How do I do that? The instructions in the manual don't seem to work.
The scene numbering in the Canon XA30 is off by one digit from the file name on the card. For example, scene 1 of 100 displayed in the camera is actually 00000.MTS on the memory card. Threw me off a bit when first using this camera. Also, why can't t...

Help me out with this if anyone can please. I understand the shutter speed should be double your frame rate. So when shooting at 30 frames/second, I should be using 60 for a shutter speed. Shooting at 60 frames/second, it should be 120. The problem i...
Hi all, The Canon G50 internally records 4k at 4:2:0 8-bit. Is that what it outputs through the HDMI port? I ask because when set to 1080p it can output 10-bit 4:2:2 through HDMI. Just curious if the 4K HDMI output is also 10-bit 4:2:2. Thanks for...
I just rec'd my new XF705 a day ago and am very excited! I've shot test footage and now discover that the H.265 HVEC (MXF) format isn't supported by Premier Pro CC (latest version, etc). Workarounds such as changing .mxf extentions to .mp4 don't help...
