Canon can be a pain at times

(3 out of 5) by doppelganger on Aug 17, 2002 (Chicago)
I like my camera, it's durable and functional. The gizmo's are pretty much kept to a minimum. THOUGH, Sony has a patent on a night-vision mode that NONE of the Canon's have, which is pretty cool if you've seen it first hand. And something that stinks with many Canon products (in my experience -with scanners and camcorders) drivers and what-not always seem to be a ROYAL PAIN.

Tape eating problem

(1 out of 5) by H. Choi on Apr 18, 2003 (MD United States)
I got two years old Canon Elura 2. It's basically same as Elura 40. I love this camcorder, very handy. Its low-light performance is not good but tolerable. The real problem is eating tape and losing data. It's not only for Elura but also for Zr10 and others. I believe all the Canon camcorders have the defect. You never know when it will start or not but I saw many posts about this problem. I'm not going to buy Canon camcorder anymore.
