Canon MV930 review

Typical price: £210

What is it: A hardy rock of a camcorder for casual party or holiday use

What we think: MiniDV camcorders are still in the game. This is an extremely capable camcorder that captures well in brightly lit environments and doesn't stumble too hard when dusk falls. At this price there's not much to complain about

Review summary	It may not be enough to record your entry for Cannes, but the MV930 is an exceptionally capable, affordable holiday camcorder. Good performance in well-lit environments makes it the perfect companion on sun holidays. Sticklers for top image quality will want to consider something a little more fiesty, but for casual use this is a strong contender Read full review	Canon's XH G1 includes the same technology as the pricier XL H1, but uses an interchangeable lens and a version of the H1's JackPack to drive down the cost. It's an excellent camcorder for entry-level professionals and independent filmmakers, with a hard-to-beat price for what it offers Read full review	Canon's XH A1 is an excellent camcorder for entry-level professionals and independent filmmakers, with hard-to-beat prices for what it offers Read full review	The Sony Handycam HDR-FX7 is an excellent high-definition camcorder from a video perspective, but it's less satisfying if you're an audio control freak Read full review
