Samsung must have sold enough of its solid-state SC-MX10 camcorder to make a sequel viable, as the company has just announced the SC-MX20. With a similar casing to its predecessor, the MX20 is firmly aimed at the YouTube crowd; its 680K pixel CCD with maximum 720 x 480 resolution and standard H.264 compression both concentrate on packing the most footage into whatever SD card you have to hand.
With no onboard storage, you’ll be looking to pick up an SD/SDHC card. Samsung claim up to four hours of footage using an 8GB memory card, eight hours with 16GB, and up to 16 hours using a 32GB card. Battery life is rated as up to three hours.
As well as a 2.7-inch swivelling LCD display there’s a 34x optical zoom with Schneider lens. A “Web & Mobile” mode automatically flips the camera into 640×480 (H.264 / AAC / MP4) recording, optimized for online use, and Samsung include CyberLink video editing software. Available in black, red, white, and blue, all with silver trim, it’ll ship in August 2008 with a MRSP of $279.99.

MX20 has attractive features considering it’s price. H.264 compression also helps to increase recording capability.
640×480 resolution can help people to handle video and upload easily.
It’s so simple design can be providing easy interface.
There is No view finder, but LCD display is intuitive.
It’s also good thing is quite long 3hr battery life.
However, MX20’s No internal memory, it must rely on SD card for recording footage.
I think MX20 would be popular cam in market for easy making homevideo.
