Roundups featuring Samsung SMX-K40

  • Samsung's Standard-Definition Camcorders: SMX-K45, SMX-K40

    Though high-definition has seized the forefront, standard-definition camcorders are still available and could make for excellent deals if you're not too concerned about being on the cutting edge.
  • Samsung's HMX-U10 Pocket Video Camcorder

    The Samsung SMX-U10 is a new pocket camcorder that goes head-to-head with the Flip Ultra and Kodak Zx1. The U10 can (allegedly) do full 1080p video and 10-megapixel still photos. That's big talk; whether it can back it up with real quality isn't clear.
