Full HD is Real HD
The VP-HMX20C takes video at the highest digital visual resolution
available today, 1920 x 1080 Full HD. 1920 x 1080 Full HD video
means much more visual information, much greater clarity, brightness
and detail than ever before. It also means that your video will be an exact
pixel-by-pixel match for today’s very best large screen HDTVs. The result
is life-like video with more natural color and clarity, without the blurring or
digital noise you might well be used to.
Progressive HD (1920 x 1080 Full HD)
Samsung’s VP-HMX20C delivers the very highest quality video by using
progressive scan technology. It records HD quality video in progressive
mode (30fps), so that the video is crisp and clear, regardless of how fast
moving the subject may be. Progressive scan technology produces
smooth images even when videos are played back at 2x, 4x or even 8x
the normal speed!
High-Speed Capture for Slow-Motion Detail
With the high-speed capture feature, the VP-HMX20C also lets you take
up to 10 seconds of video at an astonishing 300 frames per second
(fps), giving you ultra-detailed, crystal clear slow motion playback, useful
for analyzing a golf swing, dance movement, or any other motion that is
faster than the human eye.
Smoother Video and Clearer Stills
Samsung’s Electronic Image Stabilizer (EIS) system gives you crisp, clean
images whether you are shooting movies or taking still photos.
Sophisticated software is able to detect unintentional camcorder
movement and compensate with micro adjustments to the image sensor,
resulting in blur-free photo stills and smoother, more natural video.
8-Megapixel Stills for Large Format Photos
Samsung’s Pixel-Rising technology utilizes a pixel-interpolation filter to
convert recorded stills to the equivalent of 8-megapixels, enabling large
format (11 x 17 in.) detailed prints of your images. This same technology
allows you to enlarge part of an image while retaining extraordinary detail.
As Sensitive to Light as You Are (ISO3200)
Even with just 1 lux of illumination (candlelight, for example) the VP-
HMX20C has a High Sensitivity Mode that allows the amazing ISO3200
camcorder to take clear video or shoot 8-megapixel stills. This extra light
sensitivity means you get great stills in difficult lighting situations, without
the blur caused by longer exposure times.
A Wider, Brighter F1.8 Lens
The VP-HMX20C’s wide F1.8 aperture 10x Optical Zoom lens let’s more
light through to the sensor, giving you rich, bright, detailed images that
accurately reflect what you see with the naked eye. The high-
performance HD lens is manufactured to extremely exacting standards
to ensure minimal image distortion and astigmatic aberration, resulting in
the most natural, accurate, compelling video and stills available from a
camcorder today.
