The SC-HMX20C represents an HD camcorder that most will find easy use, feature packed and has all issues solved from the previous year's model. Through extensive testing, there wasn't much it couldn't handle and performance and image/video quality we...
1920×1080 recording, Simple to use camcorder software, Remote control is great addon, 8GB internal memory in additional to flash, Compact size and comfortable fit, Touchscreen interface for easy navigation
Packaged software feels incomplete, Remote control does not allow you to switch between video, photo and preview mode, Slow motion recording has limited resolution
So where do we stand with the Samsung SC-HMX20C? Given that it is priced well under 1K, it makes for an affordable high definition camera. In good lighting, the camcorder excels at capturing the moment but it falls behind in low light conditions. The d...

So where do we stand with the Samsung SC-HMX20C? Given that it is priced well under 1K, almost 600 used, it makes for an affordable high definition camera. In good lighting, the camcorder excels at capturing the moment but it falls behind in low light ...
Abstract: Click to enlarge Samsung’s HMX20C camcorder has been out for almost a year now but for many consumers that may actually be a good thing. Normally we focus on buying the newest gear available so it will be usable as long as possible, but for certain pur...
Unique, compact design. Touch screen. Expandable storage. Super-simple file transfers. Supports HDMI CEC technology. Excellent editing and Blu-ray burning software.
Video looks underexposed. Noticeable purple fringing. Can feel a bit awkward in hand. No optical viewfinder. No HDMI-out on camera itself; must use bundled docking station.
Samsungs small, sleek SC-HMX20C camcorder is dead simple to operate, but Canon and Sony reign supreme in video image quality....
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 ...
