Compact and Easy to Use HD Camcorder
I've been researching HD camcorders for sometime now and was thrilled to get this one. Of course with everything there is good and bad and I'll explain it all, there's a bit to cover.

First, the camera is heavier then it looks, which for me is ok because I know that its made with metal parts and not all plastic. Its very sleek looking and compact, smaller then I thought. Its a shiny metallic black which is also a fingerprint magnet.

The swivel handle grip is comfortable .... Read more

SC-HMX20C: Fun, Full HD camcorder
I've only owned the camera a short time (2 weeks.) So far the picture in day light shots is superb. Vivid color and true HD quality. At night it is a little grainy. In comparison to my old JVC Envrino the Samsung is much more competent at dark/night video. I like the touchscreen interface. It is not for everyone (I read several reviews before the purchase) I cruise through them menu system with no effort. The software is great for basic video editing and DVD production. I can't wait to .... Read more

Impressive High Quality HD Video!
This has excellent HD quality in a tiny camera...
Pros:

- Very Good HD quality for a point and shoot video camera.
- small, light, and ergonomic.
- easy to show off your videos and photos using my ps3

Cons:

- Limited Manual controls, wish they exposed shutter and iris controls.
kinda of a waste... Such a good image quality with very little control.
- Navigating through menus and modes are clunky and slow.
- videos are h .... Read more

Did not recieve the Camera as advertised
All other things aside this camera does not have Time Lapsed Recording (the lower end models that do not support HD have Time Lapsed Recording).

The utter shocker for me was that this camera does not support firmware. Their sites indicate in a couple places that it does. But the camera does not ever display it, and the instructions to install it are based on the non-HD cameras. Thus those instructions are actually wrong. You can not complete the steps.

I find firmwa .... Read more

Nice Camera, Hate having to switch modes, GET FIRMWARE!
I will start out by stating that they have released a firmware upgrade (go to the samsung site and search on the model #) that improved (not resolved) my major problem with the camera, the instructions on how to check your firmware release completely didn't work, so just look at the list of enhancements and it will be clear that you don't have it. The instructions for installing it were good (although they talk about a file that isn't there - just ignore that.)
