hello ... please excuse my "fractal" english... it is not me native language....
the facts, the I can find:
http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/consu...nsumer_camcorders/vixia_hf_g30#Specifications
in the above hf_g30#Specifications
=> is nothing listed about => Remote Control Terminal 2.5mm stereo mini jack (input only)
http://gdlp01.c-wss.com/gds/6/0300011386/01/hfg30-im-n-en.pdf
in the above hf_g30 manual on page 16 is the picture with the text
in the hf_g30 manual on page 183 under "specifications" ist listed:
=>Remote Control Terminal 2.5mm stereo mini jack (input only)
http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/consu...s/professional_camcorders/xa20#Specifications
in the above xa20 specificatiobs is listed
=> Remote Control Terminal 2.5mm stereo mini jack (input only)
in the xa20 manual is the same picture as in the hf_g30 manual
in the xa20 manual on page 181 is the same under "specifications" listed, as in the hf_g30 manual
=> Remote Control Terminal 2.5mm stereo mini jack
german Canon support tells in a first e-mail about the Remote Control Terminal question:
it is not available for the hf_g30 ... he is aconsumer-cam ... only 20 / 25 have this feature
as documentary evidence he give us the 3 links to the 3 specifikations list
german Canon support tells in a second e-mail, behind confronted with his own manual
some unclear statements ... like mabye ... possibly.... etc.
therefore my question, gives here a "connection" to Canon, ora know about the hf_g30
what is true, and where is the "mistake"
a) is the hf_g30 manual fault ..... to many pictures and text copy and paste from the XA20_XA25 manuals
b) is the official Canon specifications list form the hf_g30 fault??
if it is b) ... thats funny, a lot of serios reviews from the new Serie hf_g30 / XA20 / XA25
have the missing Remote-Control accurately described as DIFFERENCE between consumer cam hf_g30
and the higher prosumer cams XA20 / XA25
friendly asked greetings from vienna..... Hans

My guess is the GH-30 will have a LANC control. They are pretty standard these days. To me though, the big question is if the servo motors will be nice and smooth, and how they will compare with the XA-20. I will be surprised if the GH-30 is "exactly" the same camera as the XA-20 just without XLR audio. They often make the consumer - pro divide with features as well as price.
