The camcorder and I are working it out. It is not bad camcorder but it isn't great either. Canon can and has done better. We are in our Lemonade phase.
For some of the video editing software programs I need to convert the video. I'm testing out different applications like Miro Video Converter.
Now Canon claims that the video is 1920x1080 but in reality it records in 1664x936 and upscales to 1920x1080. This is not good but these are the facts. Since I don't need to record at the upper level I have some flexibility.
So I shoot the video through the Miro iPad conversion filter. I opened QuickTime and looked at the Movie Inspector.
The video renders at 1365x768. That is a non-standard video size but it is just a hop, skip and a jump to 1280x720. The video quality is acceptable and the sound is ok.
If it can take a bite out of the file size and maintain video quality it would be a win for me. Uploading 200+ MB on my standard DSL connection is not time efficient.
This might be doable. I still have to de-interlace the video and can use MPEG Streamclip for that but this could be a better option than using the default MP4 conversion filter. There may be some tinny sound issues with that filter; I'm not sure.
Testing continues. Running Back to the lab.
