## Description

From the Manufacturer Superb Imaging Revved with Intense Zooming Power Experience the compact, easy-to-use camcorder that captures breathtaking Full HD video while offering impressive zooming power and exciting new creative options. Superb imaging is ensured with a new, more sensitive Canon 3.28 Megapixel Full HD CMOS Image Sensor and Canon’s exclusive DIGIC DV III Image Processor. Video is steady and clear even at the large end of the 51x Advanced Zoom, thanks to SuperRange Optical Image Stabilization and Intelligent IS. The VIXIA HF R300 is equipped with flexible features to suit your shooting and sharing needs, and a new interface makes the large Flat Touch Panel LCD simpler than ever. Record in AVCHD or MP4 format to a removable SD/SDHC/SDXC memory card. And with Cinema-Look Filters and Touch Decoration, you can be sure that your videos express yourself like never before. Mega Zooming, Steady Shooting Genuine Canon HD Video Lens with 51x Advanced Zoom You won’t miss any of the action when shooting video with the VIXIA HF HR300 camcorder. The camcorder’s wide-angle area has been expanded to 33.9mm (35mm equivalent), making complex scenes easier to shoot and adding more image to all your footage. Like every Canon camcorder, the VIXIA HF R300 is equipped with a Genuine Canon HD Video Lens. Canon’s high definition video lenses use aspherical lens technology to achieve low chromatic aberration with high resolution while maintaining compact dimensions. Super spectra coating technology lowers flare and ghosting. The big news is the camcorder’s impressive 51x Advanced Zoom. Long-range shooting allows you to create videos with dynamic variety, and is less likely to disrupt the action you’re shooting. It’s perfect for formal ceremonies, animals in the wild, candid family videos and more. Advanced Zoom, available in manual mode, has been achieved with more efficient use of the effective imaging area. It takes the camcorder’s telephoto power all the way to 1,729mm (35mm equivalent) for extraordinary flexibility in shooting. SuperRange Optical Image Stabilization High definition video demands effective image stabilization, and the VIXIA HF R300’s super powerful zoom makes the need for image stabilization even more critical. Canon developed its sophisticated SuperRange Optical Image Stabilizer to do the job easily and automatically, providing continuous adjustment throughout the entire zoom range to correct a broad range of motion. Extra compensation is applied at wide-angle focal lengths to eliminate the unwanted shaking that is common when walking. The system corrects camera shake instantly, so even when you’re shooting handheld video at the long end of the zoom, the image is sharp, steady and smooth. Naturally Beautiful Image Quality 3.28 Megapixel Full HD CMOS Sensor The VIXIA HF R300 camcorder is equipped with a 3.28 Megapixel Full HD CMOS Image Sensor for true 1920 x 1080 resolution. Canon’s advanced, high-resolution HD CMOS Image Sensor has been improved for the VIXIA HF R300, with extra sensitivity that delivers beautifully lifelike Full HD Video with natural color, even in low light. Original on-chip noise reduction brings bright clarity to every frame. Video is rich, clear and amazingly detailed anywhere you view it, even when played back on a large HDTV. DIGIC DV III Image Processor DIGIC DV III is specifically engineered to optimize the imaging performance of the camcorder’s HD CMOS Image Sensor. Images exhibit beautiful clarity with minimal noise. Gradation is richly rendered from highlight to shadow. Performance in low-light situations is superb, with natural detail and color. The advanced processing speed of DIGIC DV III powers many of the camcorder’s cutting-edge technologies as well, giving you more creative freedom than ever before. Record to Internal Flash Drive or SD Memory Card The VIXIA HF R300 camcorder records Full HD Video directly to a removable SD memory card. Widely available in several capacities, SD memory cards let you share your videos quickly and easily. In addition to SD memory cards, the VIXIA HF R300 lets you use super-high capacity SDXC cards. The same size as a standard SD card, an SDXC card can hold up to 2,048 GB, and provides ultra-fast data transfer.

AVCHD’s higher bit-rate and finer resolution will yield the highest quality video for viewing on an HDTV or archiving to Blu-ray™. And for use with today’s most typical video applications, the camcorder lets you record in MP4 format, too. MP4 format produces files you can share right away – with no need for conversion. Video is immediately available to upload to social networking sites like Facebook™ or YouTube™, or view on an iPhone™, iPad™ or iPod Touch™. Intelligent IS Intelligent IS makes it easy to shoot clear, sharply focused video, even in situations that typically cause camera shake. The Intelligent IS system analyzes the shooting situation for you, then automatically switches to the image stabilization method best able to produce sharp, steady video. Four IS systems cover the gamut of shooting situations. Dynamic IS corrects minor movement and the shaking caused by walking while shooting. Macro IS delivers perfectly steady close-up shots. Powered IS comes into play when you’re using the camcorder’s powerful zoom, correcting shake that can occur in telephoto shots. Tripod Mode stops IS when the camcorder is stationary. 3.0-inch Flat Touch Panel LCD Big and bright, the VIXIA HF R300’s 3.0-inch Flat Touch Panel LCD provides super intuitive control that feels instantly familiar. With a touch, you can shift focus immediately to any subject. Exposure for any area of the screen can be controlled with a touch as well. And with Touch & Track, you simply place your finger on a moving subject and the focus will follow that subject. “Pressable” buttons are also available for selecting settings and controlling camcorder operations on-screen. A new Home button on the camcorder takes you to the main LCD screen, where clear explanations of shooting modes and recording settings help you make informed choices for an exceptionally simple and enjoyable shooting experience. Smart AUTO and Auto Tele Macro Smart AUTO lets you capture clear, bright, well-focused video while the camcorder takes care of all the details. The system recognizes 38 shooting situations based on numerous factors, then automatically chooses the optimal settings for the situation. When you shoot a nearby subject in telephoto zoom mode, Auto Tele Macro gives your video the high-end artistic effect of a well-focused subject against a beautifully blurred background.

New, easy-to-understand icons have been incorporated that make options for animated effects clear at a glance. Easy Steps to Better Videos Story Creator Creating a compelling video that truly documents an important event can be challenging, so the VIXIA HF R300 camcorder steps in to help with Story Creator. The feature is even easier to use than ever, so now even beginning videographers can cover an event with confidence. Before shooting, you’ll see a list of scenes you’ll want to be sure to catch for several different types of occasions. And now each scene selection includes specific shooting tips that help with scene structure and composition, including suggestions for wide-shots, close-ups, even recommendations for length of shots. After shooting, you can watch your video in coherent story order based on each scene’s theme, as opposed to the order in which each scene was shot. Sophisticated Shooting Modes 24p Cinema and 30p Progressive Modes The VIXIA HF R300 camcorder’s sophisticated shooting mode options offer superior creativity and functionality. 24p Cinema Mode gives your video a film-like feel, making it look as if it were shot at the same frame rate as movie film, with a frame capture rate of 24p recorded at 60i.

Review: Excellent camera for holidays - As other reviewers said, the battery time is quite short if you are planning to bring it on a trip. For taking the occasional video from family at home the 25 minutes offered by the standard battery is fine. Fortunately I also ordered the "Wasabi Power Battery and Charger Kit for Canon BP-718 and Canon VIXIA HF R30, HF R32, HF R300, HF M50, HF M52, HF M500" that includes 2 batteries, a wall charger and a car charger. Each of theses batteries last about 50 minutes or so. So I ended with a total of almost 2 and a half hours. This saved my life. The operation of the camera is quite simple and the touch interface is not that bad, just occasionally it seems to fail to detect a touch but nothing really serious. The zoom power is very good and the recording quality is awesome. There is no zoom motor sound on the recording. The image stabilisation is also very good and is necessary due to the high zoom levels you achieve with this camera. I almost did all my shooting in the Auto mode that is very good but there is also a Manual mode where you can select, for instance, night or low light or beach. A third operation mode is Film where you can select blanck and white, standard, sepia, et cetera. The good points: - Recording quality - Lightweight - Excellent zoom power with good speed - Excellent image stabilisation - Very quite operation - Very good focus response - Very affordable price The not so good: - Battery life. (This is solved by adding extra batteries) - Lack of wall charger
Review: Garbage - Garbage. Doesn’t even turn on for the second use. Terrible.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is there no actual mic on the camcorder?**
A: The R300 has a suprisingly good internal microphone along with a mic jack for an external microphone.  It has much better user control over audio than any other entry level HD camcorder that I am aware of.

**Q: How do you connect camera to my TV?**
A: The camera has three outputs:-A/V headphone out:can use supplied 1/8 to RCA cable to connect to a composite video enabled TV. You have to change settings in the menu to make that output a video/audio output instead of L/R headphone output.-HDMI out:can use supplied HDMI 1 to HDMI 2 cable to connect to HD TV or HDMI enabled TV.-USB: use to connect to computer

**Q: does this camera support a clean live output over hdmi? by clean i mean no screen menus or time stamp, i want to use this for multi camera hd streams**
A: I haven't tried taking live output through hdmi, but all of the videos I have recorded are clean with no screen menus or time stamp.  That seems to be the default, so as far as I know the answer is yes.

**Q: Does the R300 have an audio input jack?**
A: It does have a mic input. That was major reason for my choice in purchasing this camera. Few cameras in this price range have a mic input. Hope this helps and my son loves the camera, I don't use it that much.

### ⭐ Garbage
*by A***. on January 10, 2026*

Garbage. Doesn’t even turn on for the second use. Terrible.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Nice camera, but...
*by D***E on May 29, 2012*

Very good camera. When I was shopping for a new camera, I saw this and waited about 6 weeks for it to go on sale. Excellent video quality and easy to use. I would have given it five stars, but I have two issues with the camera. 1. The standard battery that comes with the camera only lasts about 25 minutes or so. You will need to buy an extended battery at a little over $100. The cheaper batteries will not show you how much time is available, but the official Canon BP-727 has the intelligence that will display how much time you have. It will give you about 2.5 hours of time. I got mine from J&R -> http://www.amazon.com/Canon-BP-727-Lithium-ion-Rechargeable-Battery/dp/B0070QPAPM/ref=sr_1_cc_2?s=aps&ie=UTF8&qid=1338292192&sr=1-2-catcorr 2. There is software for Windows transfer, but not for a Mac. Apparently you can just drag and drop the videos into iMovie, but I have not figured it out yet. You cannot just plug the SDHC card into your MacBook and expect it to recognize the videos. You have to connect to the camera instead. Neither of these are show stoppers, but they are annoyances to me.
