Image stabilisation is also optical rather than electronic, so theoretically more effective than usually expected at this price. ![]() There is a digital zoom available, but this boosts the factor to an utterly ludicrous 1,200x, which as always we’d recommend avoiding. The sensor isn’t of the back-side illuminated variety, however, unlike Samsung’s HMX-H200. The C20 is built around a small 1/6in CMOS sensor with just 680,000 pixels, but one of its benefits is allowing this very respectable optical zoom, despite the camcorder measuring just 109mm along its longest edge. Virtually all pocket Internet camcorders only incorporate digital zooms, but Samsung provides a 10x optical telephoto. The most obvious benefit the C20 has to offer is an optical zoom. Such is the case with Samsung’s SMX-C20, which costs a similar amount or less than a pocket Internet HD model, but provides a lot more control and configuration. If you’re on a tight budget, though, opting for standard definition can give you more features for less money. But already standard definition models are on their last legs. High definition camcorders have only been available to consumers for five years, with Sony’s HDR-HC1E leading the way. ![]()
