Samsung HMX-E10 HD Camcorder with Swiveling Lens
Samsung Electronics's new HMX-E10 point-and-shoot HD camcorder offers full-HD recording with a 270-degree swiveling lens in the palm of your hand. It captures both 1920x1080 full HD resolution video (30p / H.264) and 8 mega-pixel digital still images, and it sports a 2.7-inch wide touch-screen LCD. The screen is divided into two sections when recording video, with the top area displaying the live view and the bottom displaying various touch-screen controls like record, stop and play. The swivel lens can be rotated to shoot yourself while viewing the screen as well, which is a pretty handy feature.
As you would expect, the Samsung HMX-E10 HD camcorder ($199) makes uploading video to YouTube a breeze. It has an interactive and onscreen upload button which links directly to YouTube when it's connected to a computer with an internet connection.
Creative Controls
The HMX-E10 is packed with a full range of fun controls which encourage consumers to get creative with their videos. Consumers can take advantage of several Smart Filters which adjust the HMX-E10 to produce unique lens and color effects. The camcorder’s lens effects include miniature, which produces the tilt and lens shift effect, and vignetting, which produces the lomo effect. Color effects include defog, which mimics the use of a CPL filter, and sketch, which gives video a pencil drawing feel.
