Canon has announced three new HD camcorders today that kick off the Vixia line of high-end consumer models. The black paint jobs are definitely nice, making the HV30 look less toy-like compared to its predecessor, and the HF series sports some sleek new styling, an area where Canon has taken a back seat to competing Panasonic and Sony models. You sure will look cool now with a Vixia in your hand.

I uploaded my first HV20 video to Vimeo in 720p HD, with footage from my recent trip to Key West. Most of it was filmed aboard the Key West Express cruise boat that I took back and forth from Ft. Myers.

I have been drooling over this HD camcorder for a while now. I almost bit late this past spring when I found a deal for just under $900. Now it’s $729 shipped from ZipZoomFly.com and Dbuys.com. No rebates, no tax, free shipping. Who knows how long this price will last, but I don’t see it dropping much further before supplies run out and they move on to a newer model.
