Rated 4 out of 5

Good for the $$$$

Good with steadicam. Do NOT like the focus knob, would prefer a focus ring like other Vixias

Lack of connections - sent back

I use cameras on Macs with iMovie6 and Final Cut Express. The HFS21 is nice in so many ways, however, it would not work with iMovie6 ... only iMovie 7 and above. That was not acceptable. With only USB it is useless to me. [...] I went ahead and had my other DV camera repaired and will look later for a newer one that is compatible with my needs. I will look to Adorama for those needs.
