Best Camcorders for Comfort Of Controls

- comfortable soft rubber feel

the design fit into my hands comfortably and the device itself is very light weight.

+ silicone cover provides a good comfortable rubberized grip

-lacks memory expansion capability

the camera fit comfortably in the palm of your hand and made using it a joy.

it is very light and difficult to hold steady especially when using the telephoto lens.

thankfully, his system solved most of the blips i was originally seeing on my laptop, however, there were still many small pauses in the small editing screen playback feature.

there is no editing capability whatsoever with the program, therefore no 'mixing' involved.

i wanted something small and easy to hold with a hard drive.

the video is beautiful, especially in low light, which was a concern since i read many reviews of other video cameras that indicated the low light performance was not very good.

overall, i would give this hg21 a "a-" for great daylight performance, working with imovie'08 which is a wonderful consumer movie making tool, but has lackluster grainy night scenes.

holding the camera, the canon is light weight and feels comfortable where as the samsung is a bit heavier and the placement of the zoom is a bit more difficult to work.

- poor low light performance (stills and video).

its small size makes it easy to handle and the built in stabilization and zoom adds to its functionality.

and flash memory works similar to hard drive performance - the more free space you have, the faster and better they perform.

it sits comfortably on our kitchen counter and we tape it at will.

it fits comfortably in my pocket and isn't a bother to tote around for hours at a time.

the ultra (blk) had a soft body that was nice, easy to hold.

it is not comfortable to hold, and the beefy metal tripod mount seems way out of place on a little camera like this.
