How These Dates Work
You will be scheduled to receive the item on the "Receive on" date shown here. Delivery time depends on your local UPS route, and is rarely later than 6pm.
You must re-ship the item via the included UPS pre-paid return label before 5pm on the "Reship on" date shown here. Days in transit, weekend days, and holidays are not charged and not counted as rental days.
Only business days are shown above, because you can only receive or ship an item on a business day.

Please enter your ship-to zip code to view availability:
Security deposit required: None The security deposit is a hold on your credit card, fully released when the equipment is returned on time and without damage. Multi-item rentals may require a deposit even when a single item does not.
Accidental damage insurance is always included FREE with your rental. Your maximum liability for damage (your deductible) is the security deposit amount or 10% of the value of the equipment, whichever is greater. Accidental damage insurance does not cover equipment that is not returned at all (lost or stolen).
Note that the selected receive date is a Saturday. We offer Saturday delivery as a rush service for our customers who need equipment ASAP. However, UPS shipping charges are typically at least $30 more for Saturday delivery. (Add to cart for a shipping quote.) If your schedule permits, consider choosing Monday for the receive date instead.
We're sorry, this item is not available to rent for the above dates because all units have prior reservations. Try changing the rental dates or check availability on similar models.
The selected dates are invalid. Please select an end date that is later than the start date, and a total span no more than 60 business days.
The Canon HF20 is a compact HD camcorder. It does not use tapes, it records to 32 GB of built-in flash memory. It shoots beautiful HD images without the complexity level and cost of larger HD camcorders.
To transfer footage to your computer after shooting, simply connect the included USB cable between the camcorder and your computer. Transfer the footage files like you would photos from your digital camera. The files are in AVCHD format.
If your editing software does not support this format, you will need to convert the files. We used this HD converter and it worked very well. If you use a Mac, this HD converter would be the one to use.
Important note: This camera has a mini-shoe mount, so it will not work with standard shoe-mount accessories. If you will need to use standard shoe-mount accessories with the camera, please use the Bescor Accessory Bracket. You can add it to your order from the accessories listed on the Dates and Pricing tab.
