Love the XC10by Dal (5 out of 5 stars)
March 9, 2016
The camera arrived and I have been shooting with it for several days. I find the negative reviews about the camera to be entirely misleading. This is a wonderful tool. I have been shooting broadcast video for organizations like Discovery Channel, NatGeoTV, PBS and others since the 70's. I've used field cameras from the TK-76 to the GY-HM750 and from the Red to the Cion . This camera is a joy to work with. The menu system that folks keep complaining about is really quite simply laid out...actually brilliantly designed, in my opinion. I find the GoPro menus much more challenging to navigate than the XC10. The controls are all exactly where they should be. The 4K footage is beautiful. The sensor is amazing. The lens is much more than I expected. I love the touch screen focus and the built in ND filter. I have been using the camera now for three days and I am extremely pleased with the camera design and the footage it delivers. The MXF files look clean and sharp next to natively shot ProRes files. The viewfinder is clean and sharp and easy to use. The touchscreen is responsive and large enough that fat fingers can touch the right spot. If you'd rather use the joystick control...no problem.
I understand this is not the perfect camera for every shooting situation. But it sure is a joy to use. Certainly there are compromises. How could there not be at this price? But none of them affect quality as far as I can tell. Canon has done a wonderful job designing and engineering this camera. Kudos to all involved.
I am not a fully automatic shooter but I shot indoor and outdoor footage and a couple of interviews at fully automatic and am impressed beyond words. The audio levels, the video levels the color balance and focus are all spot-on. This camera is a remarkable step forward. At under $2K I am very, very impressed. If you have been reading reviews and have decided against this camera, please reconsider.
If you are on a tight budget and need a professional camera, fully functional right out of the box...this is the one!
Don't Believe the Complainers

This camera is getting a bad rap and I'm here to set the record straight.
Let's keep the main thing, the main thing and here's the main thing ... How fast can you set-up a shot and how well does that shot or video look?
That's the bottom line for ANY camera. With this unit you can slap in a card, turn it on, turn the focus rings and get a fabulous picture.
YES, the XC10 has deep menus ...so what? If I bought a professional camera without deep menus then that isn't a professional camera, that's called a point and shoot.
People are complaining it doesn't have XLR input ... again, so what? I get amazing sound with my Rode Micro plugged into the mic jack of the XC10.
I see some "first world problem" complainers with this unit and I beg you to ignore them.
Travel Cinema Camera

Its best if you take this camera for what it is instead of comparing it to a DSLR or more advanced Cinema Camera. The camera is straight forward to use, has some clean basic features allowing ease of use, in my case on the go traveling.
This camera will serve as my travel camera with 24-240mm lens, some great internal codecs, along with some familiar functions. C-Log, 4K in 205/305 Mbps, HD 1080p60, 720p120 50/35 Mbps. 12MP stills in jpg, nice for sharing.
The handling is easy and feels nimble, yet handheld I can pull off steady shots, pans and zooms. Full manual is mostly menu driven, however if you spend 30 minutes going thru the camera, youll find it comfortable to use.
The lcd screen and viewfinder are a pleasure to use, bright in day light if needed. Form factor, the rotating handle is agile and I tend to lean it forward to relieve stress on my wrist.
My hesitations are minor, photo exposure: wish the shutter went down to 1 second or longer. After taking a picture, forced to review, wish there was a way to disable.
If your entering the cinema line of cameras or just looking for something with ease of use, yet with good basic quality, would highly recommend. This camera is setup as a one stop shot. Avoiding some of the hassles that interchangeability can bring. So go out, enjoy your travels, relax knowing you have a nice functional camera in your reach.
Extremely underrated cinema camera
by Michael (5 out of 5 stars)

This is probably the most underrated cinecam under $3000. The nay-sayers are not considering this for what it is. No, it is not a a7s mkii, so it is not meant to more or less see in the dark. That being said, it does pretty well; I have had usable footage at ISO upwards of 3200 ISO. The zoom range is good. Is the lens interchangable? No. But this lens was meant to be able to shoot 4k natively, and it does so well. 4k is great looking. no artifacts, very crisp, and with accurate colors. The 4k is only able to record to the C-Fast cards, but that allows for broadcast-quality recording, which is not something many cameras in this price range can claim. My biggest complaint is that this does not have dual pixel autofocus, so autofocus struggles at times. White on white background, dark in dark lighting... A bit of searching occurs. But when this thing hits focus, it hits hard.
Maybe there are some better for a couple thousand more but this camera is top notch!

Love this camera. Perfect ergonomics for run and gun video. It is NOT a C100 or 5D3 - it's not trying to be. It's designed to be a "C" camera for Cinema or for journalists. The AF is fantastic and the sensor is crazy good. I LOVE that I can shoot c-log, DSLRs can't touch the dynamic range thus has.
In great condition.
