Samsung SMX-F30

 

Really light and a good shape to carry about. Good quality zoom and quite easy to transfer onto computer or watch on the TV.

Wish it had come with a memory card . If you programme it to use the fade option it forgets it when you swith it off, so you have to remember to reprogramme it again next time.

Keep forgetting to close lens cover/shutter Zoom control a little difficult to access as it is too near to finger so can't easily adjust. Too many options ! Accessory pack /holder needs a smaller carrying case as at times it is a little cumbersome when...

This camcorder is easy to use straight out of the box - it charges quickly, which can be very useful. It produces excellent quality video footage in 16:9 format. The instructions do need to be read initially in order to get the best out of it, and it...

The autofocussing can be a little slow to catch up. It very much depends on what it being recorded. There are specific settings in the menu that allow you to set it for fast moving objects, which helps. Despite using an SDHC memory card, there is still...

Very light and easy to use once set up. Excellent value at the price paid.

Selector switches a little fiddly to set up. Charging connection seems flimsy and its coverplate crude.
