The Samsung HMX-QF30 is ostensibly an updated version of the HMX-QF20, but little seems to have changed. The HMX-QF30 has a 1/4in sensor, just like the HMX-QF20, as well as a 20x optical zoom and 40x digital zoom. It also has a maximum pixel count of 5...

Samsung has banished the image it used to have of making camcorders that were budget in every respect. But, fortunately, the company hasn't lost its ability to provide great value. At around £250, the HMX-QF30 is well within the affordable category. Yet...

Bottom line The HMX-QF30 is not a premium competitor, although Samsung has produced some models in this category in the past, such as the Samsung VP-HMX20 a few years back. But it does play to the company's current forte - good features and image quality for the mone...

The low-end camcorder game is taking place on an ever-shrinking playing field. Since most people turn to their smartphones and tablets for recording HD video, it's hard to make a video device that might appeal to the masses. Canon, Sony, Samsung, JVC and...
Bottom line Not only does the QF30 come up short on features (even for an entry-level camcorder), its touchscreen interface was frustrating to use and the video quality we saw from it wasn't good. To add insult to injury, the QF30 sacrifices too much in the name of s...

Compact budget camcorders have come a long way. They all now shoot Full HD and come with optical image stabilization. With the HMX-QF30, Samsung even adds Wi-Fi for wireless connectivity and a touchscreen LCD. The QF30 is for those looking for an affordab...

Bottom line For a budget camcorder, we kept our expectations low, so we weren't overly surprised by the performance. What did surprise us was how mediocre it performed against our iPhone. Sure, you can enable optical zoom with image stabilization, but that's a plus...
