Canon ES60 - High-Quality Camcorder - Best in its class - Outclasses Many New Mini-Dv Video Cameras October 17, 2009 Better Business Practices (Carmichael, CA) I used to own this camcorder and unfortunately I chose to sell it and buy a newer Mini-DV Video Camera. Over the period of time that I owned it, I only used it a couple of times; however, with today's new technology and using Nero 8, I could convert the Hi-8 tapes, which would normally be made into a VHS tape to put in your VCR, into DVDs, HD DVDs and now they have Nero 9 which can burn Blue-Ray Discs. So, esentially the whole reason I bought a newer video camera was so I could have digital video and create DVDs. If I held onto the Canon ES60 Camcorder, I would be making DVDs, but I would have an amazing 700x ZOOM! That is one of the characteristics that blew my mind when I first zoomed in, when looking through the lens. I could see the faces of my neighbors across the street (inside their house) as I stood in my bedroom and looked out. This freaked me out and I immediately shut it off. The ES60 also, I forget which feature makes it this way, but produces videos that are extremely smooth and it lacks the shakiness that the newer, smaller, lighter, video cameras have. The bottom has a port that you can screw in a tripod to stand it on, and the ability the change beween auto and manual focus is very useful, especially if you want to highlight an image in the foreground (like a person) and have the background blurry. My dad made a video like that which was unbelievable!
It was made in 2001 and it is still valued at almost $400! That is amazing because most electronics that old are obsolete and worth nothing. This Canon is at the top of its class and it would be my first choice between a brand new video camera and a Canon ES60.
Nice camcorder January 25, 2002 I was given the ES60 as a gift, and I think its a wonderful camera, especially for the price. The digital effects and titling are great for filming events and holidays.
Greater starter camcorder December 7, 2001 Cindy Firman (Urbana, Ohio United States) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This camcorder is very affordable and easy to use for beginners. My husband has always strayed from "technology" but can use this camera easily. I like that the camera has many options (fading in/out, titles, dates etc.)that make using the camera a little more challenging (and fun) for me. You can definately afford this camcorder! My only concern: the viewfinder seems to put the pictures in a yellowish tint and it is distracting.
A lot of camcorder for the bread. November 28, 2001 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I just got this camcorder and did some filming with it. The quality of the pictures was very good. The features are excellent also. The microphone picks ups sound well. If it keeps working the way it is, it's a winner.
Canon ES60 October 10, 2001 Jodie Crawford (Chandler, AZ United States) 25 out of 25 found this review helpful
I have just purchased the canon es60 and it is one of the best cameras I have ever owned! It is easy to use, very light, and at a great low price. My friends and I love to make movies on it. I had searched for quite a while after I decided on the canon, and the cheapest price I found was at Best Buy, but to tell you the truth it wasn't really that cheap. Then I decided to try the net and a friend told me about amazon.com and then I found it here for almost half the price at best buy! As I was saying, the menus are for me, easy too read and the picture is excellent. This is the perfect camcorder for the beginner photoist.
