I did a lot of reading around before deciding to buy this camcorder (I was looking for a small easily used SD based machine for general 'stuff'). I bought it because of its acceptable video quality and cheap price (£139.99 at the time). It was up against the Panasonic SDR-S7 which was the chalk to this one's cheese as regard's form factor... I don't like to hold camcorders up to my face; I am 6'4" and get bored of shots of children's hair styles. Rather I want to be able to hold the camera at near waste height (child height), angling the screen up and usually holding the body not through the hand grip in the classical way. The Panasonic is simply small with the advantage of a second, well placed record button. The Samsung's much bigger than the Panasonic and about the size of the JVC GZ-MS100EK (bad ergonomics for me) but it's USP is the great swivel handle. I wasn't at all disappointed by the form factor and it really is what spins your wheels...

Why I returned it though was that the imported MP4/H.264 files are not fully iMovie '08 friendly. 4:3 imports flawlessly. 16:9 gets squashed (not cropped) to 4:3 so pictures have black vertical borders and look stretched vertically. I wrote to Samsung and got a useless tough-luck-ogram back.

I've only had this camcorder for a few days and I'm very impressed. I previously had a Sony Digital-8 camcorder but it malfunctioned a couple of weeks ago and Sony wanted over £160 to fix it. I therefore figured I'd be better off buying a new camcorder. Part of my criteria was to get a solid state memory camcorder too, i.e. no film and no hard drive. That is, the less moving parts, the less likely that something will fail. I got the MX20 for £140 and a 16gb card for £20. The camcorder is tiny. It's unbelievable how much technology has progressed in the last 3 years. It fits in the palm of my hand, unlike my previous Sony camcorder which was a bit of a monster to loaf around. The battery life is great (up to 3 hours) and the picture quality is brilliant. I'm sure there's better camcorder's out there if you want to spend £200+, but this one certainly meets my needs. I've taken a lot of video already and it displays great on my TV (an audio/video cable is supplied with the camcorder). I had to load the footage from my previous camcorder in real time onto my computer, i.e. 1 hour footage took 1 hour to load onto my computer. With this one however, I can simply copy and paste the video data straight onto my PC's hard drive in a few minutes.
