Recording onto a mini-DVD seemed like a good idea in the shop. So I bought the Canon DC301. I'm not technically minded and find the operation too complicated. The picture quality is not very good. But worst, I couldn't transfer onto my pc hard drive. I emailed Canon's helpline who said they didn't do software - I'd have to search the Internet. No luck. So I wrote again saying I was going to write a review. They wrote again with a list of software manufacturers.. I still haven't found compatible software. When Canon designed this, couldn't they have collaborated with a software company? I just want a download that recognises Canon's mini-DVD.
My old video camera gave better results - and I could edit to a degree through my video recorder.
My advice - buy from a company who are more customer-friendly.
The DC301 features a powerful 36x advanced zoom, benefiting from the unique combination of a genuine Canon video lens and super-fast DIGIC DV II processing. Capture footage directly to DVD (-R / -RW / -R DL) for instant playback in almost any home DVD player. Simply finalize a finished DVD in-camera and you're ready to go. Never miss life's important moments again thanks to quick start. One push of the dedicated Quick Start button powers up the DC301 from Standby mode almost instantly - perfect for capturing all those unexpected events. An easy-to-use Joystick, positioned on the frame of the LCD screen, gives you complete control over every important shooting and playback option. Compatibility with DVD-R Dual Layer media allows the DC301 to offer enhanced recording times. Perfect for long days out and extended breaks, it can store up to up to 108 minutes on an 8cm Dual Layer DVD. An optional high capacity battery extends shooting time further. With Canon's true wide high resolution 16:9 recording system, the DC301 records stunning panoramic movies, ideal for playback on widescreen TVs. Perfectly compose and preview your movie on the 2.7” 16:9 LCD screen. Or use the wide 0.35'' EVF (Electronic Viewfinder) to conserve battery power. Originally developed for the demands of high definition recording, DIGIC DV II offers faster processing speeds and advanced noise reduction technology. With split path processing, video and photos are processed separately, ensuring that the colors of each look their best. The LCD screen doubles as a handy video light when turned to face forwards. Providing welcome illumination in dark conditions, it allows recording to continue when ambient light is poor. Perfect for sharing, still images are captured to SD or SDHC (high capacity) memory cards. Beautiful photos can be printed directly on printers with a compatible memory card slot.
