  • In this video, Kriss provides a quick first look at Canon’s trio of recently announced fixed-lens camcorders, the XA50, XA55 and XA40. He discusses the headline specs and where each camera sits among Canon’s current 4K fixed-lens line-up.
    Over the past couple of years, Canon has slowly refreshed its fixed-lens camera offering to include models that are now capable of acquiring 4K footage. Today's announcement ties that newly updated product line together, with the XA40 and XA50/55 occupying the entry-to-mid-level market.

    To be fair, I've been using the XA40 for over a year and it's more than capable of great filmmaking. With the right lighting during production and color grading during post, this little camcorder is a beast.

    Great video - very well presented and straight to the points - unlike some. Thank you for posting.

    Is this still a good current day purchase? August of 2022?... referring to the XA50

    • @christopherdunn317
      @christopherdunn317 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes but most likely you will purchase the xa60 now instead of the ax40 !

    bonjour même si j ai cette caméra Canon XA40 pour faire du tournage, mais je n'arrive pas à touver le moyen pour faire des photos, je ne vois pas comment déclencher, par quel bouton ou touche, j'ai beau chercher sur la notice, c'est assez vague. Merci.

    My last Canon was the X1 recording on tape. 15 years ago I think.

    Good review. Would like to see some footage.

    The line-up looks good, just a quick question do these camcorders have a lanc port, I have an older consumer grade S- series canon and find for tripod work the wired remote to be essential

    • @WexPhotoVideo
      @WexPhotoVideo  5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hey, I can confirm that they both have a 2.5mm mini jack Lanc port. Cheers for watching! KH

    Could you film yourself with the XA 40 / XA 50 with these camcorders? You only find footage on TH-cam where people film outside some squirrels or landscapes. Would be great to see some footage like this scene, where the camcorder is filming a person. Is it a good camera for TH-camrs?
    Another question: There is no App for these camcorders. Will it auto-focus and find your face, or do you need someone behind the cam to adjust everything?

  • @marcbmxcool
    @marcbmxcool 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    does the screen on the XA50 a touchscreen as well?

  • @JimmyGrant74
    @JimmyGrant74 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    So you can't adjust aperture on this?

  • @johnj8774

    Excellent presentation! Would this be good for independent film making?

  • @jondoc72
    @jondoc72 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    we need to revolutionate the camcorder market: live upload to icloud for clips and photos, large sensors, robust low light performance, easy share option for facebook, wassap etc, good quality lenses, massive optical zoom, smaller sizing, improved battery etc

    • @Dero72
      @Dero72 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah! And it also needs to cost 200$ and do the dishes.

    what would you choose between Canon XA55 and Sony pxw-x70? I need help.
    I will be mainly shooting
    1) indoor
    2) with low light
    3) on a tripod
    4) live streaming
    Thanks

      O.H Oyakhire I went with Sony and it’s been great. I guess Canon XA55 will be great too.

    @rickpinelli1586 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    It is about time that the manufacturers upgrade their fixed lens video cameras. 8K is here and we are still looking at 3-4 year old tech. I prefer a real video camera over a DSLR.

    I was going to purchase The XA50 from Amazon but i noticed that all the XA50's was renewed????????????????? I wonder why????????????????????

    • @DERHOF2007
      @DERHOF2007 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      That is an option but you were finding them from 3rd party sellers. I just ordered a NEW one directly from Amazon.

  • @SeanGonzalezzz

    Can you attach a fish eye lens on these cameras?

  • @NitroXpress
    @NitroXpress 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Almost the same features as you´ll get in a Fuji X-T3 - but the Fuji lacks the nice carry handle and the fixed lens of the Canon Camcorder.

    • @Astrolavista
      @Astrolavista 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      and flip screen, if only the fuji's had a flip screen!

    • @WexPhotoVideo
      @WexPhotoVideo  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It also lacks professional XLR audio connections and built-in ND-filters. KH

  • @jondoc72

    where is the massive zoom???

    • @DERHOF2007
      @DERHOF2007 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      From what I understand the bigger the CMOS sensor the more the zoom usually goes down.

  • @bobbycratchet3958
    @bobbycratchet3958 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    XA50 records 4K at 30fps. I know that because I was gifted one and it's still new in the box. A $2200 camcorder because everybody dropped camcorders in the 90s. In the 80s they were like smartphone at a soccer game.

    • @DERHOF2007
      @DERHOF2007 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      EVERYBODY didn't drop shit. I just ordered the XA50 in 2022... Nothing beats a camcorder for video.

    Why do they even keep making these one inch sensor lol just get a rx 100v

    • @WexPhotoVideo
      @WexPhotoVideo  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I think that's a completely different camera for a completely different job. Cheers for watching! KH

  • @Droneaddiction
    @Droneaddiction 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Pointless video cameras 🤷🏼‍♂️ technology is also rubbish. Autel evo drone can video 4K at 60 fpm and it’s 10 bit.

  • @cheeseofultimatedoom
    @cheeseofultimatedoom 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    If you buy these, girls will laugh at your tiny sensor. The only thing you'll be isolating will be yourself (involuntarily).

    • @WexPhotoVideo
      @WexPhotoVideo  5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It's not all about size ;) KH
