What's Hot

Unsurpassed image sharpness, 60GB hard drive, lots of manual control

What's Not

Slightly oversized, questionable build quality

The Final Word

The HG20 is an excellent high-def HDD camcorder that easily matches anything else on the market. Although the build quality could be better, its video performance more than makes up for any shortcomings. Highly recommended.
