So it can definitely accommodate an external microphone ?

Found this elsewhere from a Canon SME. "Your camcorder will accept just about any microphone with a 3.5mm stereo plug. Because of the wide variety of microphones, we don't have specific recommendation for a brand or model of microphone, nor do we offer support for third-party accessories such as this. Microphones should meet the following specifications: 3.5 mm stereo minijack -64 dBV (with 600 Ohms microphone)/5 kohm or more. Because this camcorder cannot provide "phantom" power for the microphone, an "active" microphone (requiring external power) must supply its own power."

Does this camcorder have night vision?

Thank you for your time. Please note that this unit does offer a "night" mode but does not have night vision specifically.

How much better than the 700?

I've owned both the R700 & this R800 and the only difference I can find is the R800 records MP4 video only. There might be some difference in the settings, but I'm not sure of that. The R800 "seems" to be a 'little' better in low light, but not much (if any). You're getting a newer model camera. But if you already have an R700 and you are satisfied, don't waste your money.

Can an IR filter be screwed on the front.

This camcorder has a 43mm filter thread for you to attach filters.
