Samsung HMX-QF20BN Pro Reviews

CNET Reviews‘s review Edit

The Samsung HMX-QF20 is hard to recommend simply because its video isn't very good. What you're paying for here are the design, size, weight, and zoom lens, and, in the case of the QF20, Wi-Fi features. (The Samsung HMX-Q20 is the same, but doesn't have Wi-Fi.) If you're just looking for something inexpensive to shoot Web-friendly movies with, it'll get the job done. But those who want better video than they can get from an average smartphone and a long zoom lens will need to spend more money on a higher-end camcorder or get a point-and-shoot camera like the Panasonic Lumix ZS20 or Sony Cyber-shot HX30V.

Great online features, but this camcorder's image quality and touchscreen could be better

Digital Trends‘s review Edit

For casual video capture, the Samsung HMX-QF20 is an admirable camera that won’t break the bank. It’s easy to use once you overcome any touchscreen phobias, and offers abundant manual settings and other in-camera features to explore. But there’s nothing overwhelming about what’s inside the HMX-QF20. No one will be blown away by the amazing image quality here. Its convenient form factor and undeniably useful wireless backup and sharing features are compelling, but still clunkier and slower than even a basic smartphone. Without top-notch convenience or some pretty impressive imaging results, potential consumers may find the HMX-QF20 juggling too many pros and cons to make a worthwhile purchase.
