Samsung HMX-H106SP review
With a 64GB solid-state drive, as well as an SDHC card slot, the high-definition HMX-H106SP is a robustly built, compact camcorder. Its video quality isn't the best we've seen and its autofocus can be rather slow, but it benefits from an LCD touchscreen and well-organised menus Read more

Sony Handycam HDR-XR100 review
It's rather expensive, but the Handycam HDR-XR100 records decent 1080p video to its 80GB hard drive, and rectifies some of the problems suffered by the HDR-CX100. Sporting a simple and functional design, it's also comfortable to operate and quick to start up Read more

Canon Legria HF20 review
Compared to its competitors, the flash-based, high-definition Legria HF20 compact camcorder is pricey. But it goes a long way to justifying the extra expense by offering a relatively extensive feature set, top-notch performance and excellent video-quality in a functional, classy-looking package Read more

Sony Handycam HDR-CX100 review
The compact, flash-based Handycam HDR-CX100 has a boxy but pleasant design and shoots decent video, performing particularly well in low light. Whether or not it's right for you depends on how significant a factor size is, as you can get better-equipped but larger models for the same price Read more

Sony Handycam HDR-CX12E review
The compact Handycam HDR-CX12E flash-based camcorder offers impressive high-def video quality, good still photos and a decent feature set. You might miss some of the perks that you get on larger rivals, such as an eye-level viewfinder and bigger LCD screen, but the CX12E is excellent all the same Read more

Canon HG20 review
We're loving the Canon HG20 HD camcorder, if not just for its bigger 60GB hard drive compared to Canon's comparable HF11's 32GB of internal flash memory. But that's just where it starts -- the HG20 is cheaper at around £720 and has excellent lens performance, not to mention superb video quality and understated design Read more

Canon FS10 review
At a budget price, the Canon FS10 is small, stylish and provides a reasonably expansive feature set for an SD card-based camcorder. With 8GB of flash memory built in as well, it's a compact and convenient video camera with a hybrid zoom for very long shots Read more
