HMX-W200 High Definition Digital Camcorder

There are several camcorders for pocket use. This has overall more features and quality than most, the picture image is good when played back on computer or HDTV. The charging is either by USB or the electrical plug in . the birghtness of image and sharpness as well as volume is far far better than the comptetors. Excellent !

Yes it shoots crystal clear 1080 HD. Yes it is compact and easy to use but the best thing about this camera is it's durability. After having this camera since Dec 2011 our family just returned from Cozumel, Mexico where we did an under water SNUBA adventure. Basically, you breathe compressed air located on a raft 20ft above you on the surface of the water. This camera (although only rated waterproof to 10ft) performed flawlessly at a depth of about 18-20ft! Hats off to Samsung for making a quality product! Even our dive master couldn't believe it handled the underwater test. We were so glad we purchased this camera and got amazing underwater video all in 1080 HD.

This Camera has been my best friend since the day i bought it. Ive used it for everything! its small and its handy and it water proof!!! It records so clean and smooth! Even underwater, I was a little skeptical about it but boy i was wrong! i loved it so much that i bought another one! Samsung is the #1 in the world in electronics i cant stop thinking about it!

After installing a spare 32-gb microSD card and charging the battery, we were taking stills and video. While the controls are unique, after a bit of a learning curve we had no problems switching formats and starting/stopping recording. The waterproof feature was the main reason for purchasing the camera, to use kayaking. That was the first surprise. It is not just waterproof, but is submersible. After a day on the water, although the battery kept plenty of reserved charge, I was able to top it off with a standard "cigarette lighter" USB charger. Later at the cabin, we were scratching our heads looking for software and drivers. The CD only contained documentation. But, plugging the camera USB connector into the PC, we found the drivers and editing software installing from the firmware in the device. This worked great on our MS Windows XP laptop. Have not tried it on the MAC book or Ubuntu Linux machines computers or Android tablets yet, but will give them a try soon. Surprisingly happy with this device.

I received the samsung pocket cam as a gift this past christmas and i really like it. The size is great..makes it easy to tote around. The quality of the videos and pictures are both really nice...i have yet to try it underwater..that should be fun! The only thing i dont like about it is that there is no setting in camera mode for motion sensitivity and i mostly take pics of my 9 month old so i have to pull out my other camera to take pics most of the time... but i have gotten some good pictures with it and they turn out good when i get her in still mode! So i highly recommend this product.
