Re: Hmx20c VS FH1

I own the samsung and i can't recommend it unlles you can live without some kind of image stabilization ,it has one but it's like not having it.
Sanyo from what i know it's even worse , these brands pack some impressive specifications but lack some basic things , the fine tuned sony , canon and panasonic still rule here.

Re: Hmx20c VS FH1

Check out the HD2000 vids on the end of this thread....

Sony TG3(TG1) or Sanyo Xacti VPC-HD2000

great camcorder, the fh1 does not have all the features of the HD2000 but the pistol grip works well....

Re: Hmx20c VS FH1

I have the Sanyo HD2000 (very similar to the FH1, major difference being the pistol grip) and you can see my experience with it in my Blog and also sample videos in Vimeo. It has its good points and bad while the EIS seems to be the major weakness compared with those camcorders with OIS.
