8GB internal hard drive HD digital camcorder with memory card support

The Samsung SC-HMX20C HD camcorder makes it easy to create lasting memories. With HD recording capability, 10x optical and 20x digital zoom, and an 8GB internal hard drive (with card slots for more memory), your next home movie will be something you want to watch over and over again.

Sweet memories . . .

The SCHM10C is a great way to store all your most treasured memories. With HD recording capability, your favorite memories will practically make reality look like 3rd-grade sketches. There is 8GB of built-in memory already awaiting you, but the camcorder also accepts SC and MMC cards to ensure that you can keep all your cherished memories close at hand.

Picture this:

Until recently, most home movie cameras have served little more purpose than to conjure up mental images of former times. The quality of recording has been somewhat questionable, to say the least. Sure, the picture's alright for wide angle shots. You can at least tell what most things are. But heaven forbid you have the audacity to zoom in a little, and your picture quality goes out the window. No more, Samsung says. On the SC-HMX10C, they not only gave it full 720p recording (increasing the resolution), but also provided it with quality 10x optical zoom paired to a 20x digital zoom. This allows you to get closer to the action than ever from farther away, and brings you amazing picture quality. How cool is that?

Building bridges — or burning them?

The SCHMX10C comes with a PictBridge function, which allows you to bypass your computer to print photos. Simply connect the camcorder to a PictBridge-enabled printer, and your photos will begin showing up on the printer screen. From there, just hit print! In just minutes, you can capture a photo and print it without ever needing to access a computer. The only question remaining, is by bypassing the computer, are you building bridges — or burning them?

Connections

The SCHMX10C has all the hookups you need in order to get the best sound and video going on nearly any of your home electronic equipment. These include the power cord, MMC card reader, SD card reader, HDMI, standard video, S-Video, composite video, and USB v. 2.0. So no matter which device you're using, whether it' a computer, HDTV, or projector, the SC-HMX10C is sure to have a connection that's just right.

All in the name of progress(ive scan)

Equipped with progressive scan, the SC HMX10C records smooth, clear images, regardless of how fast the subject may be, producing the clearest, most vivid video available today. This means shooting 30 frame-per-second HD videos more clearly than ever.

Compaction

Video compression used to be basically synonymous with video degradation. However, the SCHMX20C is equipped with H264 HD video CODEC, providing advanced compression technology resulting in virtually loss-less compression. What you see is what you get but takes up less space on the memory card. Sounds great, right?

Dracula!

Maybe not quite, but the SC-HMX20C is quite sensitive to light nonetheless. Even with such a small light source as one candle, the High Sensitivity Mode allows video or stills to be taken at up to ISO3200 (rivalling many digital cameras). This makes it the perfect camcorder/camera for those low-light shots by reducing the blur. And by the way, it might not hurt to keep some garlic in your camcorder bag.
