Model overview based on user reviews  
The Canon XA11 camcorder is praised for its versatility and compact design, making it a great choice for those seeking a reliable workhorse in this price range. Users appreciate the quality video output and the presence of manual controls, ND filters, and Canon optics, which contribute to a very good picture quality. The camera features infrared photography and has two slots for SD cards, enhancing its functionality. However, a notable drawback is the absence of Wi-Fi, which some users find disappointing. Despite the small sensor size, the camera delivers high-quality video, but users should be prepared to explore the menu and instructions to fully utilize its capabilities. Additionally, it lacks built-in memory, requiring the use of external storage solutions.
Pros

Cons

Despite the small size of the matrix, the camera shoots very high quality video.

To know what the camera can do and use it to the fullest, you will need to delve into the menu, read the instructions, since it can be downloaded from the official website. And one more thing: it does not have built-in memory.
Small, compact. All settings are at your fingertips. There are ND filters. Very good picture. Quality video. Manual control. Gain. Decent device. Optics from Canon. Infrared photography. 2 slots for SD card.
Sorry, Wi-Fi is not provided.

Additional features camcorder Canon XA11:
  • DIGIC DV III Processor
  • Smart Auto function
Good to know:

Smart Auto function
Smart Auto harnesses the power of the DIGIC DV III processor to intelligently detect and analyze face, brightness, colour, distance, motion, and then automatically selects the best settings for the scene. Among the 38 scenes available in Smart Auto, the most prominent is Tele Macro. Tele Macro automatically zooms the video camera lens in telephoto mode, provided that the minimum distance to the object is about 0.4 metres (from 1 metre).
