Samsung SC-MX20 camcorder

Strengths: Good quality, easy to use design, light compact.

Weakness: Plastic design.

This camcorder has the best value. It uses SD card to record and has good image quality. Control is easy to use, menu is clear. Battery life is also good. It also has image stabilization feature which is very useful function for low light recording.

White reflection spot in middle of picture

Strengths: Cool camcorder except for spot

Weakness: White relection spot

Just came in mail today from Circuit City for 199.99 and paid even less with my AAA card. Cool camcorder except for the reflection that shows up in the middle of the picture. Cleaned the lens, seems to be more pronounced when using the wide angle. This showed up indoors as well as outside. Possibly a defect in the lens

Samsung SC-MX20 (white)

THE GOOD: Surprisingly good sound; comfortable design; relatively nice manual feature set for its class. THE BAD: Generally poor video quality; poor focus performance; hard to control zoom rocker and awkward interface; long zoom lens lacks optical image stabilization. THE BOTTOM LINE: The Samsung SC-MX20 has an attractive price, but you get what you pay for.
