Review summary	One of a pair of Canon's first flash-based camcorders, the Canon HF100 delivers excellent HD video quality and performance in a tiny package Read full review	The Samsung VP-HMX20 impressed us with the quality of its video even in low light, making this more than just a good-looking stylish model.

That describes the TG3E perfectly.
