Samsung SCD6040 DuoCam MiniDV Camcorder w 10x Optical Zoom & 4.1 MP Digital Still...

Samsung SCD6040 DuoCam MiniDV Camcorder w 10x Optical Zoom & 4.1 MP Digital Still... by Samsung $201.03 At Amazon on 2-24-2012.

DuoCam MiniDV camcorder and 4.1-megapixel digital still camera in one compact, easy-to-use package 10x optical zoom lens digital zoom to 900x for camcorder; 3x optical 12x digital for DSC, and image stabilizer 2.5-inch rotating LCD and color viewfinder Low-light recording settings, multi-card slot, pop-up flash, and MPEG-4 recording Rechargeable Li-ion battery pack 680,000-pixel CCD * variable-speed 10X optical zoom lens (digital zoom to 900X) * 4-megapixel effective recording * I spent a lot of time researching the best video camera to buy and decided on the DuoCam. At first I was thinking of getting a Sony miniDV HandiCam, but after trying it out in the store I was afraid I would break it, it felt more like a Fisher Price toy than a serious (and expensive) piece of electronic equipment. I saw a review in Wired Magazine for the DuoCam and it peaked my interest, both a miniDV camera with a 4 mega pixel video camera in one package...hmmm. Well I tried one out in the store and although it is a little bigger than a HandiCam, it is much more solid and once you learn the controls is very convenient. One of the reasons I bought this was because we have a new baby, with this camera I can video tape him and when he does something particularly cute I just switch to the digital camera and take a shot, no switching or anything, pretty convenient when you have diaper in one hand and your camera in the other. I found the video quality to be the equivlent of the the HandiCam and the photo quality and features are excellent. Considering how much you would spend for both a decent miniDV camera and a good digital camera, this is a great deal. You also get a remote, USB cable and memory card. I am very happy with my purchase, way to go Samsung! Back To Top Samsung SCD6040 DuoCam MiniDV Camcorder w 10x Optical Zoom & 4.1 MP Digital Still...
