Review summary	The Flip Video UltraHD may not be the sexiest mini-camcorder out there, but it offers a respectable feature set and some of the best video we've seen from this type of bargain, YouTube-friendly camcorder 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. We'd like more manual control -- and more subtle control over the zoom -- but it's so easy to use that we can look past that to see how good this camorder is Read full review	Sony's forte is high-quality, cutting-edge technology delivered in highly desirable, stylish consumer products. That describes the TG3E perfectly. Serious videographers may scoff at some of its omissions and weaknesses, but for non-experts happy to plug their camcorder straight into their HDTVs, it's excellent Read full review	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
