Good, But...

Overall a very nice camera - value for the money. The only problem, which I wish someone would have mentioned - the recording length. This camera can only record for 20 min at a time. It then "creates a new file." Nowhere did I find Samsung tell me this until after I had bought the camera and was able to download the user's manual.
The problem comes in the 3-5 seconds of lost time between the end of one file and the beginning of the next one. For recording a sporting event, it would be okay, but for my kids' plays and concerts, it is not - there is no work around other than to keep an eye on the timer.
That is really the only problem that I have with the camera.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: Did not meet expectations, limited recording time per file

GREAT CAMCORDER AND FEATURES WITH TWO EXCEPTIONS

After using the HMX f90 camcorder, and trying various recordings with it, I find it's over all performance is very, very good, with a couple exceptions that Samsung could have made better. First, no matter how you are using the anti shake feature, it does very little to keep your actual recording steady. That is actually an easy manufacturer adjustment Samsung could have made. The second thing that is a bit annoying is it records in low light ok, but again, they needed to make it more sensitive to offer better quality recording in lower light situations. ONE BIG PLUS, Samsung was smart enough to put a record/pause feature on the camcorder. That is a very, very nice feature that most people want in a camcorder, so nice work on that Samsung. The bad news is, it is the only model they make with this feature. I hope they have plans to offer a similar camcorder to this model with the improvements to the anti shake and low light recording issues, but certainly leave the record/pause feature on any new models. All in all, a very nice product that I would suggest to anyone in the market for a camcorder right now.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, record/pause feature
Cons: poor anti shake and low light recording quality
I would recommend this to a friend!

A good Xmas gift

I received this camera on Christmas and the few days I've had to play with it I've come to love it. Having a 9 month old I wanted to record her besides using my phone. Only personal drawback on this model is no wifi. I can't really complain since it was a gift and in time I'll be upgrading all my home devices in the future and all of them will need wifi connectivity. It's just easier to work with and of course uploading or downloading and I hate wasting time on PCs when I can complete whatever I want on my phone or tablet. That's why I'm pro-wifi on any device possible.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, usb a plus, downloadable owners manual, samsung's registration site easy to use
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought this on the advise of good friend and am very pleased. I need to take bit and pieces of the kids in their activities and it is great for that. I have moved away from putting so much video on my phone and getting it wih my video recorded. I love that I can out it in my purse so I have it when I need it.

Ease of use

This camera is very easy to use, either point & shoot or set to any desired production values.
The playback features, both PC & for use with my Samsung LED TV are excellent.
Very simple for first time operators or experienced photo bugs like myself.
