The Samsung HMX-H100 Compact Full High Definition Camcorder gives you true 1920 x 1080i HD recording and 1280 x 720 progressive recording. Unlike most HD camcorders, which only offer interlaced recording, the H100 gives you the option of interlaced or progressive. Progressive displays the entire frame for the most vibrant, detailed video images. In addition, the camcorder's 1/4.5" CMOS sensor with 2.2MP captures and records beautiful video and 4.7MP still images.

The H100 records to SD/SDHC memory cards which are great for transferring files to your PC for uploading and sharing. Flash memory helps keep the camcorder size small and light; it's also more reliable because there are no moving parts, making the camcorder less susceptible to data loss.

Other features of the HMX-H100 include the touch panel 2.7" LCD, optical image stabilization, and a built-in flash. In addition, the camcorder features Time Lapse Recording for viewing an extended scene, such as a sunset, in a shortened period of time. If you're looking for an affordable flash memory camcorder with excellent video capabilities you can't go wrong with the H100 on your list.

    Comments about Samsung HMX-H100 Compact Full High Definition Camcorder:

    Gave this to my son for Christmas after considering mainly camcorders costing twice as much. I believe it has the largest sensor for the price category. Recording in low light was dark until we pressed the auto adjust button for a perfect picture. Images on our 58" plasma were sharp and better than expected.

      Comments about Samsung HMX-H100 Compact Full High Definition Camcorder:

      I've been researching HD cameras since late last year and finally came across the samsung hmx100 HD camera. Since the HMX-H10x line just hit the market, I have been waiting a few weeks for someone to review it so i could see if it was any good. I finally saw a positive review on another site and decided to give it a try.I've only had it for a few hours. but am very pleased so far.[...]
