Total score ? (maximal 570) | 412 | 323 |
| Pros | + Sharpness and colour at the upper AVCHD limit + Many manual controls + 1080p50
| + Sharpness and lowlight behavior + Some good manual control + Touch Focus
|
| Cons | - setting focus manually is a little complicated
| - Automatics never completely switched off - No support for AVCHD
|
| Conclusion | Not only does Panasonic offer 50p, it also brings enough wide angle (which even isn´t affected by the active image stabilisation), good low-light performance and colors, great sharpness and lots of manual control.(only 2D mode) | With the HMX-S10 Samsung shows the company is able to build cameras that can compete technically in the 1000 Euro league.The camera hardware is more than adequate for this price.But software-wise there is more emphasis on colorful animations than practical usability. The small lens wheel does in any case only make limited sense, as long as you cannot inhibit the camera from automatically changing the settings.The display, however, is really impressive and also the manufacturing of the camera seems very solid. |
