Will this properly mount on the Canon Vixia HF model camcorders?

Canon doesn't provide a standard cold shoe on their camcorders, so you need to purchase a little adaptor to get from the Canon "advanced" shoe to a standard cold/hot shoe. They are inexpensive and work fine. Then you can use this mic or other accessories with the Canon Vixia. I have both this mic and a Canon Vixia camcorder. Works great.

Just a thought for Canon Vixia and other camcorder/GoPro users, in addition to Tom Khazoyan's answer about the adapter for mini shoe to standard shoe, you could also use one of those camcorder "handles" and mount the mic on the cold shoe at the top end of the handle. The handle is also great if want to do something like shoot low or create some interesting angles.

yes...I use it for my camcorder and I really think it will work on yours.... and the price was right

It should. I have a VIXIA HG20 and it fits front to back, the HF G20 maybe a little longer so it should fit side to side. I have more then one camera and attachments in the bag.

It uses the standard 1/4-20 screw found on 99.99% of tripod mounts, if your camcorder can mount on a regular tripod, it should be able to use this.

I have no direct experience to answer this question, but it works with my Canon Vixia HF R100 camera, and it seems to me if your camera has a standard 3.5mm stereo jack for microphone input, I see no reason why it would not work.

Only if mounted on external tripod or boom with 1/4 thread mount because Vixia HF R40 8GB does not have shoe used for mounting to DSLRs

You need to look at the instructions or specifications for the Vixia. The microphone requires the Canon "Mini Advanced Shoe." If the Vixia does not have that feature, the mic cannot be mounted to the camera.

Not sure - I currently use it with my Canon SX260 HS, so perhaps the Canon folks can confirm if their stand "holes" are consistent in size.

I guess it will fit any camera that has the standard screw on the bottom of it. The question is will my camera have the capabilities to use the hot-shoe mounts for accessories like a shotgun microphone or a video light?

Thanks for your question! According to the product details the mount is for "GoPro HERO, Contour, Sony Action CAM, Drift HD & other Action Sport Camera/ Camcorders". It sounds like it will be compatible with most Action Cameras.

Can't say for sure, but it worked well with my Canon-Vixia. It is a straight forward 1/8" input, like a headphone jack uses. I like it and has worked well. :)

Yes it does. See specs please. http://camcorders.reviewed.com/products/canon-vixia-hf-m50/specs

Yes it will! Any camera that fits on a standard tripod screw will do (and I know for a fact that the HFR42 has this capability)

This has a standard screw mount, so it will fit on any tripod designed for a camera. It has a firm feel to it, so you'll feel secure about putting your videocamera on it.

That should work with this rig. I've used it with Panasonic HVX 200, HMC 150 and Cannon 7D camera's. Which all have the standard 1/4" thread I believe and almost all camera's I've ever used from consumer to pro have had that standard size.
