... I make videos on youtube. So when my digital camera crapped out on me, I thought I'd upgrade to an actual camcorder. But with only $200 saved up, a high end one was out of the picture.

The Samsung SC-MX20 was right up my alley. Good price, nice quality, cool features. Overall, this camera is great. Just thought I'd point out a few things.

1. If you are used to really good cameras, you'll be disappointed with this. It's great for amateur work and quick vids, but for high quality video making, this isn't for you. Movement is sometimes quite pixelated.

2. Zoom. Wow. I love it. Can see farther than I can. But for far zoom, I'd recommend a tripod. You know how shaky it can be if you hold it...

3. Nice sound quality. With my old camera, one of my big problems was the "bubble mic". It would pick up not only my voice, but the AC, Computer, ice cream truck outside, etc. Now, it's much more focused in on the subject matter.

4. Swivel grip and lcd screen are very flexible and versatile. great for odd angles.

5. The Schnieder Lens is very clean, but again, pixelation problems. This might be fixed with the sports setting. I haven't tried it yet. And I dig the manual lens cover switch.

6. I was hoping for still photos. No such luck. The closest is interval shooting, and that is pretty nifty...

So overall, it's a 4 star. What I was looking for (mostly) and in price range. Get it. Unless you're super picky. ...
