"First Review: HD Shooting With Samsung Camcorder"

By Mendelson Tiu | Published:19/09/2008

The new HD camcorder from Samsung takes the stress out of recording with its great form factor, simple operation, and easy video transfer and viewing. Just remember to stock up on high capacity memory cards when going on long vacations to make the most out of this device.

The Samsung VP-HMX20C is small, compact, and light, making it one of those devices that you can bring along without having to think twice. While the package comes with a carrying pouch that protects your camcorder from scratches, it does not protect the camcorder from bumps – so take care!

The unit fits perfectly in our hand, with us having easy access to the record button, power switch, zoom lever, photo button, and mode button. In addition, the hand grip can be swivelled, allowing a user to shoot in almost any angle.

Samsung placed 8GB of storage on the camcorder, which roughly equates to 71 minutes of HD recording. If that is not enough, you can always chuck in an SDHC or MMC+Plus card that can give you up to 284 minutes of HD recording (using a 32GB card). It also comes with a 2.7-inch LCD touch panel, offers 1080/25p shooting, 10x optical zoom, and comes with features like image stabilisation and face detection.
