Reviews | 14 expert reviews (rating 75 / 100) • 141 user reviews: "Broad manual feature set unusual in a camcorder its size; excellent video quality; attractive, functional design....Relatively expensive....The only difference between the two models is color and memory configuration: the HF20 has 32GB built in, while the HF200 has none...Like most all new models, however, the HF20 and HF200 lack an eye-level EVF...You wouldn't call it a featherweight, but the HF20/HF200's 13.9 ounces is relatively light for a midrange camcorder,..."

Reviews | 15 expert reviews (rating 70 / 100) • 234 user reviews: "Very good 720p HD video for its class; 5x optical zoom; nice LCD; full featured for an inexpensive minicamcorder....Component cable not included; slow AF, still-camera performance; poor photo quality; pistol grip not...The lens adds to the overall size, but it's still a lightweight and pocketable device...On back of the screen is a stereo microphone, which did a very good job of picking up audio, though its handling of wind noise is not great, which is typical..."

Reviews | 8 expert reviews (rating 41 / 100) • 128 user reviews: "The CG9 is the smallest camcorder on test here and uses the same pistol-grip design as the larger Sanyo VPC-HD700 and HD1000 models overleaf...Unlike the HD700's natural ergonomic feel, though, the CG9 is so small it can feel awkward to use for those with larger hands...The CG9 is as easy to use as it is to transport, featuring little in the way of physical controls, though various settings can be changed via the menu...Although it is capable of capturing stills at an impressive 9.1 megapixels, its 640 x 480 video resolution is the lowest here...Due to the poor footage quality, and the lack of internal storage, the CG9 is best suited to short bursts for the web..."

Reviews | 12 user reviews: "Overall, the auto features on the HDR-FX1000 are decent, although the combination of auto/manual controls can get a bit confusing...There are no preset low light modes on the Sony HDR-FX1000 and the camcorder doesn't offer NightShot, which is a staple on Sony's high-end consumer models...The rocker is a bit clumsy and makes too much noise, but it is placed well and is good for making a quick zoom adjustment..."

Reviews | 12 expert reviews (rating 83 / 100) • 18 user reviews: "Samsung isn't shy when it comes to product design, and its latest camcorder, the Samsung HMX-R10, has to be among the most unusual looking we've ever come across...Not only is this a good-looking design, it's also practical...The HMX-R10 looks and feels like an expensive camcorder, so it's surprising to find it available at the relatively low price of £279 exc VAT...Outside, the small lens meant detail capture wasn't the sharpest, but, again, colours were very good..."
