It features an optimized recording mode for YouTube, a schneider lens with 34x optical zoom, image stabilization and face detection. The MX20 also features the longest battery life in its class, lasting up to three hours.

I now love this camcorder, its light, easy to use and the video after being converted on my computer with the right software makes the quality wide screen and crystal clear. First the software that comes with it is called Cyberlink Mediashow and it seems pretty sweet but it won’t allow a 16:9 aspect ratio even when selected. I went through Samsung’s tech support through their level 2 guys who were stumped and I found free software at download.com, "Free Video Converter v 1.3 which updates automatically after installing to v1.4" and by selecting avi with Xvid 624×352 with 16:9, I got wide screen and great quality, I could have chosen up to 1920×1080 but on my 43" plasma 624×352 is sweet. I’ve got my 8 and 11 year olds using this camera like pro’s and the videos are worth much more than the camera cost.
Hopefully Cyberlink Mediashow will come up with a patch for their software as it has the potential to be great if they would just fix the aspect ratio issue.
GREAT NEWS as of Nov 24, 2008 the patch for Mediashow has been released and it fixes the problem with the wide screen, kudos to Cyberlink for the quick fix.
