Product Shot 1 The Pros:52x optical zoom. 32GB of internal solid state storage - not as energy hungry, hot, or prone to physical damage as disk based storage. Optical image stabilization.

The Cons:Expensive for a standard definition camcorder. Built-in solid state storage is the only difference between this model and the much cheaper SMX-K40. Shoots in standard definition only.

It features Samsung’s play-edit-sharing program called intelli studio which lets you use any computer to edit and play videos with no software installation, and simplifies the process to upload content to websites such as YouTube.
