Very disappointed in the default colorimetry setups. Very dull. Life less.
Could not believe it is mute when using the SD/HD SDI function. Still cant!

Access to setups and pluggery all very good. I have an XL-1 so it was natural to get the HD version. I also have a small JVC Hard Disc camera, and its shaky as hell, and having to haul a PC along to dump down to Hard Drive, shooting and keeping content is a major pain, especially now with airline surcharges on extra weight are so high.
The DVD dump feature, with compressed video is anothger damn box to bring with you.
So I shoot on 1440 mode, and dump to miniDV. So until the Hard Drive cameras can offer a sensible way of getting the media off them, Canons decision to stay with tape is sound.
What is the point of having to run around with PCs and MACs, when a small tape is easy to store/is light and easy to get in different countries, and locations.
having lost an SD card due to slight moisture and sweaty fingers in hot weather, I have very little trust in SD/Solid state storage media.
Love the camera.

Frustrated with getting 4 track audio off it to FCP.
