I really like the Samsung SC HMX10A high definition camcorder. It’s very simple to use, very comfortable in my hands, and has great HD video recording quality. Lastly the price on this unit is very competitive. Prices in Canada’s Future Sho...
Build Quality, Price, Ease of Use, Touch screen, 4Gb of included memory, Connectivity, Included Dock
Should provide a HDMI cable with the camera, Automatic lens shutter cover rather than a manual
Samsung's first foray into solid state HD recording can be easily summed up to be a success. Everything works perfectly, controls are easy to use and video/photo quality are excellent for an all-in-one product. With the rise in HDTV sales, HD camcord...

Relatively sharp video; manual exposure controls; can focus fairly closely.
Sluggish autofocus; exposure problems; mediocre low-light quality and performance; no hardware image stabilization; annoying touch screen; potential software problems.
Despite an attractive price and some decent features, the frustrations of the Samsung SC-HMX10 outnumber its rewards.
Easy to use
Touch screen interface
8GB built in memory
Good video
Backlight feature
Image stabilization doesnt seem that great
Playing video on a PC requires included software
In the two years since I reviewed the Sanyo VPC-HD1 camcorder, Ive been using it as my main method of capturing video. I love it for its size and ease of use, but have always been disappointed at its low light performance. Since I dont include a vid...
Lightweight, Easy-to-use design, Captures moving subjects well
Slightly dull colors, Low light detail and focus problems
Samsung’s HD camcorder is light (5.0 ounces) and unassuming. Shaped more or less like a soda can, the HMX10 creates 720p video (1280 x 720) compressed to the H.264/MPEG-4 codec and stored either on the internal 8GB of flash memory or to SDHC/MMC+ ca...

Abstract: The last time I used or even owned a camcorder was back in the mid-90s. They were always too big and transferring video was only something a pro did unless you were just copying to a VHS tape. It wasn’t worth the time or the effort. My, have times c...
Great quality videos, Although not harddrive based like some, Flash memory is shockproof, Easy to use, Compact size and handgrip swivel, SDHC/MMC support, Included dock/carrying pouch was a nice touch, Good battery life
Should include an HDMI cable as well, Would be nice if stillphoto quality was greater then it could double as a photo camera
Although flash/hard drive based HD cams aren't cheap yet, Samsung certainly has a great device on their hands in the lower price range of around $700. The HMX10A certainly left me impressed with not only great quality 720p videos but also a very good...
There are a lot of things to like about the Samsung SC-HMX10A. For starters, the quality of the HD videos is very good, even at the lowest HD quality setting. I especially liked the fact that Samsung took strides to make recording HD video easy by i...
Abstract: The Samsung SC-HMX10 is clearly the leader in a burgeoning class of camcorders we might call “budget HD.” That is to say, among those camcorders not made by Canon, Sony, and Panasonic – all of which hover near or above the $1,000 mark &n...
Abstract: Around the time that I started getting annoyed with AVCHD and my Panasonic HDC-SD5, Samsung and MWW approached me about testing out the Samsung SC-HMX10 camcorder. After finding out that the HMX10C didn’t use AVCHD and saved directly to friendly MP4...
