Canon Legria HF20
As far as mid-range camcorders go, there's not much to fault the Canon Legria HF20 for; the image quality is good, the autofocus speedy and feature list fairly full.
Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ35
The FZ35 should be at the top of any potential superzoom buyer's list, with a fully featured specification sheet and good image quality.
Reviews

Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH1
The Lumix DMC-GH1 proves that there's fight and fury in the Micro Four Thirds format, with brilliant HD video quality and great still images.
-
Olympus Mju 7020
We're a bit ambivalent about the Olympus Mju 7020. It's got a wide-angle lens and a relatively long zoom at 7x, but misses out on good picture quality and class-leading features like HD movie recording.
-
Ricoh CX2
The CX2 is an attractive proposition on the outside: a CMOS sensor, 10x optical zoom and wide-angle lens, but inside there's a host of noise issues.
-
Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX65
It's a good camera that can take some beautiful pictures, but for the price and the lack of extra features, the FX65 doesn't live up to our expectations of value — and its video quality is terrible.
-
Samsung WB500
The WB500 is a good camera that delivers quality shots, but unfortunately its lacklustre performance won't go down well with seasoned photographers.
-
Sony Handycam HDR-XR100
While it's a perfectly serviceable HD camcorder, the Sony Handycam HDR-XR100 should deliver a little more of everything for the money.
-
Sony Alpha DSLR-A380
While the Sony Alpha DSLR-A380 is a solid and inexpensive dSLR with a few nice features that will probably satisfy many shooters, it doesn't deliver quite enough on any front to outshine competitors.
-
Fujifilm FinePix S1500
Even for a full-featured megazoom camera at a low price, the Fujifilm FinePix S1500 delivers average photo quality and mixed performance.
