I have one too and have noticed it gets hotter then a nucleur submarine after it's been on for a half hour. It's almost too hot to hold. Total battery hog, but you can get expanded batteries and that helps. The quality is great, but a little unwieldy, you need high def editing software to get the film off the camera. Canon is offering a rebate, but they make you wait two months before they'll send it to you. You are better off just buying software at the same time and saving yourself the trouble. Overall it's a nice camera, but there isnt' a good way to get the high def footage to the TV yet, maybe when high def burners become more popular.davis freebergFri, 01 Dec 2006 03:56:59 -0000http://www.ohgizmo.com/2006/11/23/canon-hv10-hd-camcorder/#comment-1760258FYI, this is 1080i, not 1080pStefanTue, 28 Nov 2006 14:57:57 -0000http://www.ohgizmo.com/2006/11/23/canon-hv10-hd-camcorder/#comment-1760257"...plus everything else you?d expect from a modern camcorder..."<br><br>Almost. I have one of these camcorders and, inexplicably, there not only is no mount for an external Mic or light, there's *no* way to plug in an external microphone.<br><br>So you're shooting HD video alongside AM radio audio. :(Shawn KingThu, 23 Nov 2006 10:13:27 -0000
