appearance.The SMX-C14 and SMX-C10 are ideal for the on-the-go consumer and offer animpressive 10x optical zoom paired with Hyper Image Stabilization to help reduceblurry footage. Both camcorders also feature a 230,000-dot, swiveling 2.7-inch wideLCD screen, which allows users to effortlessly frame their subjects and review their footage. Similar to the full-HD HMX-R10, the new SMX-C14 and SMX-C10 boastSamsung’s Active Angle Lens. This unique design helps reduce fatigue by allowingconsumers to grip the camcorder in a more relaxed manner, easing the overall stresson their wrist and elbow. Unlike traditional camcorders, the relaxed grip also removesthe LCD screen from the user’s line of sight, enabling them to always keep an eye ontheir subject while recording."The SMX-C14 and SMX-C10 are truly unique camcorders, starting with their eye-catching Crystal Design,” said Sang Ryong Kim, Camcorder Business Team atSamsung Electronics. “In addition to being ultra-compact, ergonomic and stylish,these camcorders offer a host of advanced, yet easy-to-use capabilities thatencourage consumers to integrate video recording into their everyday digitallifestyles.”The new SMX-C14 features 16GB of internal Samsung flash memory and isexpandable via an SD/SDHC memory card slot. Thanks to H.264 compression,which drastically enhances recording times when used with standard definition video,users can record over six hours of footage with the highest video quality at Super Fine Mode directly to the SMX-C14’s 16GB of built-in memory. The SMX-C10 doesnot feature internal memory and requires the use of SD/SDHC media. Both the SMX-C14 and SMX-C10 also offer substantial battery life, providing more than two hoursand forty minutes of record time on a single charge.The SMX-C14 and SMX-C10 also incorporate Samsung’s play-edit-sharing programcalled intelli studio. The built-in intelli-studio program allows consumers to connectthe camcorder to any computer via USB and edit and play their video without havingto install supporting software. intelli-studio also facilitates the process of uploadingusers’ content to popular video sharing Web sites. For added convenience, a one-touch “upload” button, available directly on the SMX-C14 and SMX-C10, provides adirect connection to YouTube™, further reducing the number of steps needed toupload footage. In addition, the camcorders also allow basic on-camera editing,including the ability to merge and split video files.Samsung also enhances the video recording experience for end-users thanks toseveral unique features, including time-lapse recording, animated thumbnails and aversatile charging system. Time-lapse recording allows users to program thecamcorder to record at a pre-set interval of one image every one, three, five, 10, 15or 30 seconds. Time-lapse recording is especially useful for condensing extremelylong events, such as rolling clouds on a sunny day, into a short, easy to-view video.Samsung’s animated thumbnail feature simplifies the way users search for videoclips on the SMX-C14 and SMX-C10.
