Compared: Canon XH-A1 vs Panasonic AG-AC130
So I received a Panasonic AG-AC130 and compared some footage with my Canon XH-A1. Keep in mind I have only had the AC130 for a few days so I do not know it as well as my Canon.
See a short video below: Note: I am kicking myself for using a preset on the Canon to make the color pop, I should have used the Canon with no preset. Observations: AC130 is/has: - Bigger - Sharper, better picture - Cleaner and better in low light (but not as much as I was hoping for) - Wider on the wide end - Bigger and better screen - Auto white balance is better XH-A1 is/has: - Better Auto-focus - Longer reach - Better zoom rocker The AC130 has a usable gain of 12 where the Canon looks pretty bad at 12 db. This may not be a big deal to some, but for a wedding videographer it is nice to have in case you need it. In the Panasonic, the DRS was on. Panasonic AC 130 vs Canon XH-A1 - YouTube |

Re: Compared: Canon XH-A1 vs Panasonic AG-AC130
About 5 years newer with corresponding technology changes
1920x1080 vs. 1440x1080 pixels when recording 16x9 (HD vs HDV) I would expect the 130 to produce a better image in many respects and be shocked if it did not.
