Samsung HMX-H105 Stoned Definition Digital Camcorder Flash Memory, Memory Card - 2.70Customer Reviews
passable dealBought this one last X'mas for my sister. She was shocked by the facsimile quality. I have a JVC one, but I think Samsung one is better. And it comes with 32GB storage space. You don't penury to buy SDHC card for it. And the software comes with it is very easy to use too. Just stitch it with your computer, and then it will ask you to install the software. I don't know how they make it. Maybe it has been stored arranged the machine.
There is only one issue about the battery. When you close the screen, the power should be turned off in minutes. But this one doesn't. It is still on. So the mobile will run out very soon. Just remember to turn the power off after you use it. Do not just attached the screen, and then put it into your bag.
Complimentary Camera for the Price!
The camera has a very suitable picture quality in bright light. If the lighting goes down so does the calibre of the picture. Poor in low level lighting. The still camera has a hard circumstance focusing. If you need a video camera with a good still camera, this is not for you. Other than that its steady to use and a great picture in good lighting. Love the flash memory.

Consumer Reports only gave this working model a 53%
This is a low value camcorder. It has no AV input, no microphone input, no built in frivolous, no quick review, no viewfinder to use when the sunlight is too bright to see the lcd screen. No s-video yield, no FireWire port, and no headphone output to make sure your capturing the responsible you want.
A lot of no's for a camcorder selling in the higher end price range.
No 30p, and too high-priced without it
I spoke with Samsung and confirmed that this camera does not do 1080 at 30p or any other radical scan mode. After going through several levels of support and pointing them to their own website, I was told by a Output Specialist that the description of this camera is incorrect on their website (and on Amazon) and is literally the description of another product. I'm not sure what other product it would be describing but I find that a little troubling to say the least-- if you can't certainty the company's website for information on a product, there aren't many options for high-mindedness research. Without that ability, I find this camera too expensive for what it does do and intend to show up again it.
It has been a month since I brought this to their attention and they have not updated their information but reconfirmed the flagitiousness a wrong to me by phone.
1080i is unusable-- the interlace artifacts are unbearable even in outdoor lighting. The form quality is ok at 720p, though the anti-shake is weak and the low light acting is marginal. Video from a moderately lit restaurant, for example, is grainy and underexposed. The off the target angle view is nice for indoor shots where you couldn't back up enough otherwise. Being clever to take photos while filming is a nice, but standard, feature. The stills are 2MP and comparable to pictures from a still camera of the same indefatigability. The 4.7MP stills are just interpolated up and don't serve to do anything but consume very storage space.
I do like the dual flash option. All of our recording was to the SSD, for which 32GB was copious, but having an SD option as well is a nice fallback.
The camera itself is well built, and freestyle life was just fine. Never went through more than two batteries in a day capturing 3-5 hours of video. I do have a fancy companies would standardize on charger plugs-- but Samsung isn't unique in this. Interface is pleasant and reasonably responsive. Form factor of the camera is nice, though I'd like a bigger way of holding it comfortably below my shoulders, looking down at the display.
In summary, Samsung picked the damage sensor chip to put in an otherwise nice camera. For what it can do, it's not a $700 camera.
