I'm getting the Samsung HMX-U10. Gonna start vlogging & updating my Youtube channel



The Samsung HMX-U10I is a pocket sized HD camcorder that cost less than $200. I considered getting the "YOUTUBER standard" Flipcam UltraHD, but the Flipcam is so outdated on its features. I like the fact that the Samsung has a better camera/lens/sensor thing plus you can use an SD card for multiple storage options rather than the limiting 8GB flash memory that Flipcam has (Flipcam doesn't even an option for extra storage), and it looks way better than the Flipcam. Why am I getting a pocket sized HD camcorder? Well...I want to start vlogging about my exploits and hopefully get my Youtube channel going.

Here's the factory description:

"The HMX-U10 is the ideal solution for anyone looking for ultimate portability and ease of use in an HD camcorder. The HMX-U10 offers full-HD video recording with 1920x1080 resolution. The HMX-U10's 1/2.3-inch CMOS sensor also gives you the ability to capture impressive 10-megapixel digital still images, all which can be reviewed on the camcorder's clear, 2-inch LCD screen. At 56mm x 103mm x 15.5mm, and weighing just 95g including the battery, the HMX-U10 is ultra-compact with an ergonomic design that breaks free of the traditional look and feel of pocket-sized camcorders. Its sleek frame is accentuated by a wave-design that angles the body of the camcorder at seven degrees, allowing users to grip the camcorder more comfortably, reducing any related stress on the wrist or arm. The new HMX-U10 also boasts boast several unique features which differentiate it from the competition and makes video recording even more enjoyable for consumers. Such features include Samsung's built-in intelli-studio software, animated thumbnails, and a versatile charging system. No longer do you need to worry about being near a home computer in order to edit or share video. The HMX-U10 features Samsung's play-edit-sharing program called intelli studio. The camcorders' built-in intelli-studio program allows consumers to turn any computer into a mobile studio, giving them the ability to edit and play their video without having to install supporting software. Sharing is also simplified using intelli-studio as the program takes the hassle out of uploading content to popular video sharing Web sites. For example, a one-touch "upload" button, available directly on the HMX-U10, provides a direct connection to YouTube, further reducing the number of steps needed to upload footage. In addition, the camcorders also allow basic on-camera editing, including the ability to split video files."
