Samsung SC-MM10 MPEG4 Camcorder w/512MB Memory & 10x Optical Zoom

this camera has loads of cool features, is very easy 2 use & is quite affordable 4 what you are getting. I recommend this product highly.

This camcorder is great, 4 an amateur. I bought it 4 my [...]son after I returned the Sanyo Xacti VPC-C40 because it would not charge the battery a second time. The Sanyo was easier 2 transfer the video 2 a computer, no software 2 install. The Samsung is just as easy other than that. It only takes about 2 minutes 2 install the required files (2)on a computer running XP but might be a problem if you want 2 send the video 2 a family member since they won't have the dv driver & video codec. My son has made several short takes with only the TV 4 background light & they are fine. It will not accept any of my 2 gig SD cards but that may be because they've been used in other cameras. It works great with "new" 1 gig SD cards. If this camera was designed 4 fun then it hits the mark. If you want professional videos then you should buy a professional camera.

I had many of the initial issues with this little jewel, but found two ways 2 get things on track with my MacBook Pro. Google "deSEDG" & you will find an extremely helpful app that will allow you 2 convert the avi files so that you can open them in Quicktime & import them into iMovie.

I also installed the Windows codec using Parallels, & this allowed me 2 view the files automatically in the Windows Media Player. Both results were excellent, & with iMovie I can edit them quite easily.

The information in the guides that comes with the camcorder are insufficient 4 those using the Mac, but at least there is now a way 2 benefit from this wonderful piece of equipment.

This little camera shoots great video. Don't buy it if your looking 4 a still camera because it doesn't do a good job at all in this area. If your looking 4 a compact video camera that fits in your pocket, then this is it. It shoots mpeg4 video which is good quality in a small file size. I'd also suggest getting a 2GB memory stick so you will have plenty of space 2 shoot your video. Great little camera!!!

This camcorder has some nice features including a powerful zoom, automatic exposure, automatic focus, & a 720x480 video resolution. Though the camera dos not work well in low light conditions, the camera can be operated of the AC power supply, & a high capacity 3.7 volt 2400mAh battery can be purchased at: [...]
This optional battery will double the record time of the camera.

Included Accessories: AC adapter, battery pack, A/V & USB cables, wrist strap, earphones & software CD
