The SC-HMX20C offers the ability to record precious memories in full 1920x1080p HD quality. Because this camcorder records onto flash memory, it offers quick start-up, great battery life and one of the smallest bodies in the industry. The SC-HMX20C is extremely versatile and can be used to shoot HD video footage in virtually any situation. Everyone from aspiring filmmakers to parents shooting their children’s first birthday can capture their memories in beautiful HD quality.

The SC-HMX20C’s outstanding performance is the result of cutting-edge design coupled with innovative technologies in HD recording. The SC-HMX20C features a 6.4-megapixel CMOS with electronic image stabilization so even action-packed scenes come through with clarity. Featuring an HDMI-CEC (Anynet+) high-quality connection to HDTVs and other devices, you can easily control the camcorder through their Samsung HDTV remote while viewing movies-just one more feature that strives to make life easier.

With the unique feature of high speed capture and super slow motion playback, the SC-HMX20C allows everyone to record fast motion at 300 frames per second for up to 10 seconds and then drastically slow down the playback of the recording. Perfect for sports fanatics looking to tape and analyze their golf-swing in slow motion, or anyone interested in getting the detail of fast-flying events that otherwise would be undetectable to the human eye, this special function opens up a new world to users.

Samsung also engineered its new HD camcorder to be significantly more powerful than previous models. The 8GB of built-in flash memory helps ensure that nothing is lost for lack of space and users also have the option of recording onto high-capacity SDHC/MMC+ cards via the additional card slot.

In addition to ample memory and superb recording capabilities, the SC-HMX20C also delivers among the best still pictures of any camcorder on the market. The SC-HMX20C has a few unique features traditionally found on digital still cameras such as a pop-up strobe flash, automatic built-in lens cap and advanced face detection to automatically bring facial features into crisp focus, delivering high-quality images.

At only 10.9 ounces, the SC-HMX20C fits easily into the palm for quick-and-easy shooting. For further convenience, the SC-HMX20C comes equipped with features that make it simple to use. Samsung’s proprietary swivel hand-grip makes it possible to record from multiple angles, including regular and low-angle shots, while the 2.7-inch wide-aspect touchscreen LCD makes editing on the fly easy. Additionally, the iCheck function lets the user know how much memory and battery life remains to ensure not a second is lost.

Finally, Samsung has designed the SC-HMX20C to be both stylish and ergonomically correct. Its design utilizes trends seen in the fashion and car industries, resulting in a camcorder that’s as elegant as it is practical.

This camera is great

★★★★★

5.0

"Pros : Great Features, Great Picture Quality, Comfortable to Operate, Versatile, Durable, Simple Controls

Best Uses : Family, Special Events, Movies/Short Films, Weddings, Sports, Travel

Describe Yourself : Semi-Professional

This extremely portable, totally easy to use camera has not left my side since I bought it. I can bring it anywhere and everywhere - the 1080p footage it kicks out (which is so easy to view, I can hook it up directly to my TV, view it through my PS3 or on the computer) is beautiful, the slow motion option never fails to impress (just make sure whatever you're shooting is completely in focus before you hit record).

I've been shooting great outdoor footage - lots of slow motion at the beach, etc. I've also recorded

staged table readings, birthday parties.

It works great under low light conditions. Also, even though it's advertised as having no external mic input - it absolutely does (the built in mic is pretty good, but having the option to use wireless mics or a more high end mic is a nice plus)

Because of it's small size, it's a little more sensitive to movement (it's easy to pan too quickly). The cradle is also a bit awkward (it sits at a strange angle)

These two small cons pale in comparison to what an outstanding camera this is - just unbelievable for the price."

"My wife has been wanting a digital camcorder for a few years now. Especially since our little boy is turning one soon. So I did a ton of research and had seen the SC-HMX20C before but had not thought I would need a HD camera. Well a few months went by and I saw it in Popular Science as a gadget of 2008. Well I went and got one. [...] My wife was videoing our son's first Christmas and in HD. I really didn't think it would be that spectacular until we played it back on our flat panel (also by Samsung). HOLY COW it was perfect.Love it and would consider buying it again!"

Samsung 8GB Hybrid SD/SDHC Camcorder - SC-HMX20C Review

Compact but powerful full HD camcorder

★★★★☆

4.0

"Since SC-HMX20C supports full high definition (1920x1080), the quality is very good with full HD TV. The built-in 8GB memory is not bad for about 70 minute video recording. The user interface is easy and convenient. Mostly, I like the features. But I have to change my PC because it requres a high performance PC spec. This should be the same as other full HD camcorders like Sony, Panasonic, etc."
