Not sooo intoxicating self for Anfangänger, with some caveats

Anticipation. I'm not a profesional cameraman but I have some experience in filming and photography. I know exactly how man has to adjust a device rauszuholen everything.
And I'm in my assessment realistic (I make the device not bad, but I'm also not very euphoric). Because I had to do with some camcorders.

Immediately after unpacking I began to film (or rather to test).
I have to say the operation is simple, but the little directional pad next to the display is a bit too small, thereby often you press the wrong place. Since you want to eg adjust the white balance and whoosh you're back in the main menu and have to go back again. Man has so watch where you push back. In case you have doubt carefully work with your fingernail.
The main remaining elements, such as zoom, on-off switch, record button and the camera releases are easily accessible with one hand. What I like, which is an additional record button is mounted on the display, so you can quickly stop the recording if you just absorbs himself.
The handle and generally the unit is set up stable and robust. You can adjust the handle even if you have larger hands, which is laudable, because not every camcorder has this feature.

What is very important: battery life. ALSO for that matter does not make him what camcorder before, had the battery at me only one line and he was still just under an hour. The remaining beams go very slowly away. So where you at other Camcorden needs already 2 or even 3 extra batteries, you need at the only. 1
The storage capacity is good. With the maximum resolution on a 32GB Class 10 SDHC card about 510Minuten.

So, we come to the actual picture and sound.

It's like really in any camcorder in this price range. Good light = good picture. But I have to say even when the light diminishes and it is for example cloudy, the image is still good. But when one is in the room, only one lamp is on and there already dawns, the picture is also the corresponding bit verauscht (Honestly, I did not expect much at this price range)
While you can still see everything but the noise is gradually EXTREME when it is dark. There are now phones make better shooting results in low light.
What is very positive is the pause function. Man can only stop recording and continue recording later without a new file is created on the memory card.

AAAAAAABBBEEEER !!!! And that's a big but and a very negative point. A file can be 20:01 minutes maximum. This has found a previous speaker. Although the Samsung filming continues, but there is no smooth transition, it lacks few milliseconds. It's annoying when man has a rest in the middle of a sentence, and perhaps there is no one word.

Where I had really hoped for something more, the focus was. Everyone must be known that you're not a stupid HOW reciprocating HERZOOMT. But even back in the slow, he needs a short while to make sharp again
Nevertheless, I must say that the zoom is great, you do not need binoculars to get a closer ran (CAUTION !!! COURSE IS THE BIG ZOOM filming with bare hands a nightmare)

For sound, you can say this much: it goes. All sounds can be clearly heard, but when it is quiet, you can hear a slight noise (and no, I did not at the SEA filmed, but in the silent room)
If it's too quiet, you can hear the engine of the lens toward andd moves ago. Say during zooming and additional focus.

So I have to say that you can not be fooled by a brand name. Although you should not expect much from a camcorder in this price range, but there are really better.
