Samsung Announces Dazzling Duo: SMX-C14 and SMX-C10 Camcorders

We were never mistaken when we wrote good things about the HMX-R10. And its bravura was carried through on the company's newest pair. The SMX-C14 and SMX-C10 which are both ergonomic camcorders boasting the similar Touch of Color finish and Samsung's iconic Active Angle Lens. Specifications include a 10x optical zoom, Hyper Image Stabilization and a 230k pixel swiveling 2.7-inch wide LCD display. The C14 comes with 16GB internal flash memory along with an SD/SDHC expansion slot, while the C10 comes only with the expansion slot. And lastly, both units are said to include one-touch YouTube uploads and with just under three hours of life on a single charge. But oddly enough, Samsung failed to mention anything about video capture resolution. The SMX-C14 and SMX-C10 will be available this July for an undisclosed amount.

Samsung HMX-R10 HD Camcorder: A Fresh Perspective

From its looks alone, a fresh ergonomic form factor that allows users to hold the camcorder more comfortably, the Samsung HMX-R10 HD camcorder oozes with high-tech appeal, what with its unique 25-degree angled lens that makes shooting more fulfilling with CMOS-based image sensing technology and full HD capabilities, enabling the R10 to record both true Hi-Definition video and nine-megapixel stills.



It also features an HD Time Lapse recording mode that records a single image at an interval pre-selected by the user, either 1, 3, 5, 10, 15, or 30 seconds, and will save each image as one single movie file. Other features include a 5x optical zoom lens, a swivelling 2.7-inch touchscreen LCD with the proprietary Samsung Magic Touch UI, and a microSDHC memory slot with support for cards up to 32GB, enough to provide plenty of room for creative videography. The Samsung HMX-R10 HD camcorder will start selling in the U.S. on May 15th for about $499.99.

Canon Vixia HD Camcorders: Four of a Kind

Avid videographers can't lose, whichever of Canon's latest powerhouse Vixia HD camcorders they choose. On the high end, the HF-S10 and HF-S100 both debut the new high-speed DIGIC DV III image processor, which complements an 8.59 megapixel Full HD CMOS image sensor to produce incredibly crisp images.

Like the HF S10, the S100 features the same 8.59 megapixel Full HD CMOS image sensor, DIGIC DV III image processor and an SDHC expansion slot but lacks the 32GB of built-in flash memory that comes in the HF S10.

For those less finicky about resolution, the HF20 and HF200 capture 3.89 megapixel images, while boasting a powerful 15x zoom lens. All four models also feature a Video Snapshot Mode, for capturing pro-looking stills out of video clips. Same with the difference between their bigger S10 and S100 brothers, the HF200 also lacks the 32GB of built-in flash memory that comes in the HF20.
