Canon Legria HF M41

 

The Canon LEGRIA HF M41 makes up one third of the brand's M-Series camcorder lineup, along with the cheaper HF M46 and the HF M406. What the HF M41 has over its siblings is its larger 32GB memory, along with a viewfinder and an external microphone...

Good quality video, comfortable to hold, easy to use, creative features

Pricey, viewfinder too small to be useful, slightly bulky design

The Canon Legria HF M41 is an excellent camcorder and offers plenty of compelling features such as the cinema filters and the external microphone port. It's comfortable to use and captures great quality HD footage while also allowing for some...

Canon Legria HFM41

 

Like a number of camcorders in this price range the Legria HFM41 has a size and weight befitting its plethora of features and quality output. It is not massive at 74mm x 71mm x 137mm (W/H/D), but it is certainly not one that would slip easily into a...

At a shade under £800, this camera is not to be purchased on a whim, however the multitude of features and manual control settings really set this camcorder apart from the competition. If you are a budding filmmaker or want something more from your...

Canon Legria HF M41 - Plan, Shoot, and Decorate Your Movies with Ease

 

The Canon Legria HF M41 includes creative cinematic functions like Story Creator which has five predefined themes. Priced at S$1,449, its costs $300 more than the M400 camcorder from the same Canon Legria M series family. We set out to see if the M41...

Canon Legria HF M41 Review

 

The Canon Legria HF M41 has the same HD CMOS PRO sensor as the other higher end Canon camcorders. It is for those people who want the same level of performance but at the same time do not want to deal with endless controls.

It is true that the Canon Legria HF M41 is not the best camcorder around and yet it doesn’t fail to woo the masses. The device is known for its performance rather than its features and this has helped it make a name for itself in this short span of...

Canon HF-M41

 

picture quality very good, image stabilisation very good. It's too early yet to say much about all the things it can do and I am looking forward to working my way through them all

Previously had much bigger camcorders. Found the zoom control a bit too far back for my finger to line up on it. Start/stop did not line up so well with my thumb. Both these cause movement of the camera when operating. View finder is fixed in position...
