NEW Canon PowerShot SX20 IS Digital Camera Unboxing

July 3rd, 2010 Leave a comment Go to comments


This is just the unboxing of the new Canon PowerShot SX20 IS. I picked this up the other day at Best Buy when I saw it shot video in (720P) HD and had 12.1 Mega Pixels. I believe this is replacing the Canon PowerShot SX10 IS that was only 10.0 Mega Pixels and did not have the HD video feature. This is a cheaper alternative to the Canon PowerShot SX1 IS that shoots video in (1080P) FULL HD, has a CMOS sensor and is 10.0 Mega Pixels.

    Hey, i’m thinking of getting this camera for my birthday this wednesday, i’m going to be 15 but i really really enjoy photography. Would you, a purchaser, recommend buying it? Does it focus well? Is the macro good? Is the lighting good? A few tips would be much appreciated :) Good video by the way!

    i think I know what you mean when you say blurry backround as in the effect of the background being a little blurry and the main subject being clear . that can be done a few ways with macro or using your zoom or getting close to the subject. the idea is to get close to the subject no matter how you do it either by zoom or physically

    Yeah I guess I can see that AA batteries are useful because of their abundancy, but the problem is for some reason I never have any around.

    Could it be that your SD is not fast enough to capture HD video? What type of SD are you using?

    Oh so exactly what is a mini hdmi cable?

  21. CanonKielHD
    July 4th, 2010 at 00:49 | #21

    Yes, in order for it to show up HD on YouTube, it must be 1280×720 or bigger. You can stretch a video size bigger in some video editing programs to make it HD, but the quality wont be.

    July 4th, 2010 at 01:23 | #22

    Oh is this also required for the camera to?

    The camcorder will always record in HD. Just depends at the MB you choose. If you choose anything other than 24MBps, it will be in 720p quality, if in 24MBps it will be 1080p. You have 5, 7, 12, 17 and 24MBps to choose from.

    To transfer the video footage you use the USB cord that comes with the camcorder. The files are AVCHD, .MTS Format. You can use a program called Alive HD Video Converter to convert them to .WMV, .MPEG, etc.

    This is all for my camcorder of course.

    Oh so exactly how do you record and process a HD video like what supplies do I need and stuff like that? And do I have to hook the camcorder or camera to the computer or what? What cables and wires do I need? This camera I just might get it depends.

    All you need is a camera that can record in HD. You can buy cheaper HD cameras that don’t do much for around $200 or you can buy camcorders like I have for around $600.

    Of course you’re going to need a decently fast computer to be able to process everything, especially if you plan on doing any video editing.

    I have the Canon VIXIA HG20, hard drive based HD camcorder, records in 720p-1080p. I got it for $600 around Christmas. I highly recommend it if you have the money. That or the HG21.
