CTV previews the Kodak Zi6 and writes, “The purpose of the Zi6 is to keep the camera simple in use and that means few recording options…My first set of videos made with the Zi6 are vibrant but the clarity and detail is quickly lost when simple issues such as camera shake seem to […]

PC World reviews the Samsung HMX20C and writes, “One of the most interesting aspects of the VP-HMX20C is its gargantuan 1/1.8in CMOS sensor. By contrast, the VP-HMX10 (XSA)’s sensor was only 1/4.5 inches wide. While this doesn’t affect the resolution per se, it does allow for larger individual pixels, which helps to reduce […]

Switched reviews the Pure Digital Flip Mino and writes, “The Flip Video Mino is almost $200, and yet the quality of the video is still well below what you’ll get with an entry level camcorder for just $50-$60 more. Though small, it’s still relatively thick for pockets, making the argument for using the […]

CNET UK does a hands on review of the Samsung SC-MX20 and writes, “The camcorder is certainly small, nestling in the palm of the hand like a can of Coke, or rather, generic discount cola. The flip-out screen measures 69mm (2.7-inch) corner-to-corner. The Schneider-Kreuznach lens is protected by a manual lens cover, which is […]

Switched reviews the Creative Vado and writes, “If either discretion or portability is of the utmost importance, then this is the only camera that’ll come in handy, since you’ll barely notice it in your pocket.

CNET reviews the Sony DCR-SR85 and writes, “The Sony Handycam DCR-SR85 overall is a good camcorder. The 60GB of storage means you can more than likely take it on a vacation without worrying about running out of space. Plus you can save video and stills to Memory Stick Pro Duo cards up […]

Switched Reviews the Kodak Zi6 and writes, “Size is a minor complaint, though, and we’re impressed with the image quality, large and crisp 2.4-inch screen and easy-to-use interface. After testing out the camcorder for a couple weeks, we recommend it as an excellent alternative to the much-hyped Flip, especially if you’re looking for […]

PC World reviews the JVC GZ-HD30 and writes, “As with previous Everio units, we found the menu to be a tad complicated and unwieldy, though this is to be expected from a camcorder equipped with so many shooting functions.

Gizmodo reviews the Kodak Zi6 and writes, “Despite all the good stuff, there are a few shortcomings with the Zi6. Most importantly, when switching between infinite and macro focus, or from low-light to full-light, the camera takes a while to refocus.
