Samsung launches ergonomic SMX-C14 and SMX-C10 Camcorder

Samsung Electronics America launches the Samsung SMX-C14 and Samsung SMX-C10, two new ergonomically designed, compact digital camcorders. The new Samsung SMX-C14 and SMX-C10 camcorders also feature Samsung’s stylish Touch of Colorä (ToCä) finish. With ToC design, a hint of color is naturally blended into the deep black body for an attractive crystalline appearance.

The new Samsung SMX-C14 video camera features 16GB of internal Samsung flash memory and is expandable via an SD/SDHC memory card slot. In addition, with H.624 compression feature, the camcorder is capable of recording more than 6 hours of video directly to the camcorder’s internal memory. The Samsung SMX-C10 camcorder does not feature internal memory and requires the use of SD/SDHC media. Both the Samsung SMX-C14 and SMX-C10 camcorders also offer substantial battery life, providing more than two hours and forty minutes of record time on a single charge.

Both models shoot video at a high-definition resolution of 720 by 480 pixels, and also feature a 10X optical zoom, image stabilization, a 230,000-dot, and a swiveling 2.7-inch LCD. Still images are captured at 800×600, but increases to 1600×1200 by interpolation. Other features include time-lapse recording that enables you to record images at preset intervals that range from every 1 second to 30 seconds. Samsung ships both with software that lets you connect to computers via USB and edit and play video without installing software on the PC. They also offer a one-button straight-to-YouTube capability.

“The SMX-C14 and SMX-C10 are truly unique camcorders, starting with their eye-catching ToC design,” said Reid Sullivan, senior vice president of Audio/Video and Digital Imaging Marketing at Samsung Electronics America. “In addition to being ultra-compact, ergonomic and stylish, these camcorders offer a host of advanced, yet easy-to-use capabilities that encourage consumers to integrate video recording into their everyday digital lifestyles.”

The Samsung SMX-C14 and SMX-C10 digital camcorders will be available in July 2009. Prices are not yet available.
