Samsung unveiled many products in PMA 2010. Of these products, I am interested in these two. They are Samsung HMX-U20 and HMX-U15. If you have noticed, their are the updated version of HMX-U10.<\/p>\n

The major improvement is the 3x optical zoom. Of course, it makes the camcorder bigger but it is worth it. I am not trusting any digital zoom on taking HD videos.<\/p>\n

Here is the Press Release with some specs on them.<\/p>\n

NEW SAMSUNG ULTRA-COMPACT CAMCORDERS MAKE IT EASY TO CAPTURE AND SHARE HIGH-DEFINITION VIDEO<\/strong><\/p>\n

HMX-U20 and HMX-U15 Offer Full HD Video, Built-in USB and HDMI Connectivity<\/em><\/p>\n

Anaheim, CA (February 20, 2010) – , Inc., a market leader and award-winning innovator in consumer electronics, today extended its family of ultra-compact camcorders with the introduction of two new models, the HMX-U20 and the HMX-U15. Building on the success of the Samsung HMX-U10, the new HMX-U20 and HMX-U15 bring new features and functionality to Samsung\u2019s ultra-compact camcorder family, such as a built-in USB connection, which now makes it easier than ever to not only record, but share full HD video with others. Adding even more, the new HMX-U20 now puts a true 3x optical zoom in the palm of consumers\u2019 hands, allowing for additional creativity when recording life\u2019s special memories. Both the HMX-U20 and HMX U15 will be on display during PMA 2010, February 21-23, in the Samsung booth, #2227, in the Anaheim Convention Center.
\n\u201cThanks to consumers\u2019 demand for portability and ease-of-use, the ultra-compact camcorder category has exploded in growth,\u201d said Mr. SangRyong Kim, Senior Vice President of Camcorder Team, Samsung Electronics. \u201cThe new HMX U20 and HMX-U15 offer not only portability and ease-of-use but also a number of versatile features like time-lapse recording that allow users to easily capture and share life\u2019s important moments the way they see them.\u201d<\/p>\n

High-Quality Video and Digital Stills<\/strong>
\nThe HMX-U20 and HMX-U15 come fully equipped with high-performing 1\/2.3 inch CMOS sensors which help capture stunning, 1920×1080 full HD resolution video (30p \/ H.264). In addition, the ultra compact HMX-U20 and HMX-U15 also boast impressive digital still image capability. With the HMX U20, consumers can capture 10 mega-pixel digital still images, while the HMX-U15 shoots 14 mega-pixel digital still images. This impressive digital still capability eliminates the need for consumers to carry a separate digital camera as everything they\u2019ll need is in one, ultra-compact device. The camcorders also include Hyper Digital Image Stabilization to help produce blur-free video and the HMX U20 adds even more versatility with a true 3x optical zoom. Consumers can also get creative with their video thanks to fun and unique features such as time lapse recording, which allows users to program the camcorder to record at a pre-set interval of one image every one, five, 10 or 30 seconds. Time lapse recording is especially useful for condensing extremely long events, such as rolling clouds on a sunny day, into a short, easy to-view video.<\/p>\n

Easy Connectivity<\/strong>
\nThe HMX-U20\u2019s and HMX-U15\u2019s built-in, swing-out style USB connection gives users the ability to forego having to always carry a separate USB cable to connect and upload footage to a computer. The built-in USB connection can also recharge the camcorder\u2019s battery, eliminating the need to transport a separate charger while on-the-go. Furthermore, the HMX-U20 and HMX-U15 offer HDMI connectivity, allowing consumers to enjoy their full HD video on their HDTV.<\/p>\n

The HMX-U20 and HMX-U15 also feature Samsung\u2019s play edit sharing program, called intelli studio. This intuitive program allows consumers to turn any computer into a mobile studio, giving them the ability to edit and play their video without having to install supporting software. Sharing is also simplified thanks to a one-touch \u201cupload\u201d button on the HMX-U20 and HMX-U15. When connected to a computer with an internet connection, the one-touch \u201cupload\u201d button links directly to popular destinations such as YouTube\u2122, reducing the number of steps needed to upload footage to content sharing Web sites.
\nDesigned for Portability and Comfort<\/p>\n

The Samsung HMX-U20 and HMX-U15 are extremely portable with dimensions of just 2.1\u201d x .61\u201d x 4.09\u201d. In addition to their compact size, the HMX-U20 and HMX-U15 are also highlighted by a unique design that\u2019s as ergonomic as it is stylish. Designed to make the camcorders more comfortable to hold, the camcorders\u2019 bodies are angled at seven degrees which encourages a more natural grip reducing overall stress on the user\u2019s wrist and arm.<\/p>\n
