JVC Everio GZ-MS130
The GZ-MS130 is a nice, albeit run-of-the-mill, flash-memory-based standard-def camcorder.
Samsung ST550
Self-portrait screen or not, this camera marks Samsung's coming of age. Aside from a few too many megapixels and battery life that's too short, it's a delight to behold and use.

-
Samsung WB500
