Canon Vixia HF-S11 or Sony HDR-XR520V?

Hello,

I have been researching to see what camcorder to buy, and the 2 best
models seem to be the Canon Vixia HF-S11 and the Sony HDR-XR520V.

Any advice on which of these is the better camcorder?

Thanks.

If it were me. I'll take HFS11 any days. It is in my wish list as I want a 2nd HD cam use for B roll shot.

Canon. Easy choice. Currently use the Vixia HF 20 and more than likely will buy another one,,or bump up a notch for the 11 model. Just make sure to get a couple of extra batteries, the 64 gig on board will out run the standard battery 3-1.

I own a Canon Vixia HG-20 and it's the best camcorder for high definition picture quality that I've ever owned, bar none. Without a doubt, get the Canon.
