CNET: Canon DC40 DVD Camcorder Review
The Canon DC40 DVD Camcorder is a sleek looking device packed with a range of features for you to enhance your photo and video recording experience. 'With its broad, useful feature set; zippy shooting performance; attractive design; and good video quality, the Canon DC40 cements a place among the best of the DVD camcorders. Of course, it suffers from many of the same flaws as its competitors--such as sluggish disc activity--but if your heart is set on recording direct to DVD, it's definitely worth checking out. However, if your idea of a good time is hitting the Easy button and pointing the camera, you'd best consider the Sony DCR-DVD405 or the DCR-DVD505 as well.'
