So it is the overall video performance which lets the HF21 down, particularly when you take into account current pricing. At over £800, this camcorder is up against the aforementioned top-of-the-range models from other manufacturers, and is very much in the realm of camcorders aimed at serious, enthusiast videomakers. In particular, Panasonic's HDC-TM300 offers slightly superior low-light abilities and more features including a lens ring and standard-sized accessory shoe. It has half the memory, but is also cheaper. So whilst the Canon Legria HF21 is a very good camcorder, at its current price we'd opt for the Panasonic HDC-TM300 instead.
