Hi-UD (Hi Index Ultra Low Dispersion) glass ensures reduced chromatic aberration while 5-axis optical and electronic image stabilisation reduces image distortion and an 8-blade circular aperture with EMD (Electro Magnetic Diaphragm) technology ensures footage is natural and beautiful.

With its HD CMOS Pro sensor, the LEGRIA HF G26 offers excellent low light sensitivity.  Featuring a wide DR for beautiful tonality and Highlight Priority mode for rich expressiveness in high-brightness areas, recording 50P at 35Mbps delivers efficient, high quality footage helped by a DIGIC DV 4 processor supporting advanced image stabilisation plus slow and fast motion recording.

Our Verdict

If you’re a filmmaker looking for a discreet, compact, and lightweight Full HD video camcorder that records beautiful footage with a wide dynamic range, the Canon LEGRIA HF G26 ticks all the boxes.

The 20x optical zoom lens is wide and bright with an f/1.8-2.8 aperture and 26.8mm wide-angle view to 576mm telephoto view, and with footage being recorded onto an advanced HD CMOS Pro sensor, the image quality from the LEGRIA HF G26 is stunning, with beautiful tonality from the wide dynamic range and rich highlights.

For workflow, the LEGRIA HF G26 has it sorted – HDMI interface for wired connectivity and Dual SD card slots for simultaneous recording and data backup integrity. Using the LEGRIA HF G26 is easy, too thanks to the 1.56 million dot tiltable electronic viewfinder and large 3.0 inch LCD Touchscreen.

The Canon BP-820 battery offers a higher capacity than the standard battery, enabling you to shoot for longer without the need to swap batteries.
