  • The VP-HMX20 marks a sea change for Samsung. Whereas the majority of its previous models were firmly aimed at buyers on a budget, this one has image quality and features to vie with the best from the big household names in the camcorder business. Yet it's...

  • Excellent quality 1080p videos, Picture quality is certainly good for 4 megapixels, Mounts just like a removable drive to access your videos on your PC, Hand strap is a comfort improvement over the HMX10A, Plenty of settings and adjustments for both video...
  • Lens focal length might be bothersome for some users (and some may never notice it too), Lack of HDMI port right on the camera, Wait, where is my HDMI cable?
  • Overall, I was incredibly pleased with the Samsung HMX20C. Just like any camera, it has a huge list of ups and of course a few downs as well. How you take these pros and cons will completely depend on how you plan to use this camera. It's very likely...

  • Abstract:  The Samsung SC-HMX20 is a great camcorder, hands down, easy-peasy. If you had your eye on it but wanted to read a review first, then read the review and buy it. Its not the perfect camcorder for everyone, but its perfect for some. Lets get some of t...

  • I’m gong to keep this really short. If I was Samsung, I would immediately stop trying to make this into a camera/camcorder and make it into a camcorder. For me, there is just too much to work on to the camera to work like a regular extension of your ...

  • Abstract:  Let us restate: the SC-HMX20C isnt meant to be looked at seriously by pros. The $849.99 (or so) price tag is proof of that. For individuals seeking a small, easy to carry camcorder that will capture family vacations, impromptu get-togethers and your k...

  • Abstract:  I recently had a chance to try out the new Samsung SC-HMX20C. The camcorder records 1920 x 1080 high definition video to an internal 8GB flash memory drive, or onto a removable SDHC/MMC card. The HMX20C has a 10x optical and 100x digital zoom, and come...

  • " some of the quality issues of the camera in lower light keep it from being a perfect 10 for the price. While there are improvements to be made for $900 this is a great camera that will fit the needs of many people. It comes in as a 9.0 and is a BCC
  • Digital Camera Has Noise All But Bright Light Photos, Slow Motion Is Time Limited (10 Second Clip at 1/8), Storage Setting Is Globally Internal or External
  • The Samsung SC-HMX20C camcorder was a surprise in more ways than one. First of all, the camcorder is really quite small yet feels much more solid than I would have thought. Also it has decent still image camera functions and can double up as your fa...

  • 1080p ’Full HD’ resolution, lots of modes and features for the asking price, user-friendly interface, 250fps slow-motion mode
  • Poor night-time performance, no HDMI port on camera body, slow-motion has limited functionality
  • The Samsung VP-HMX20C might not be perfect, but for $1199 it ticks all the right boxes. Users will be particularly impressed by its Full HD resolution and extensive recording options. Without question, it’s one of the best ’value choices&rsquo...
