Photo & Video

This camcorder is durable and easy to use. We’ll also admit we really like the bright orange color it comes in, but you can get the same device in black if you’d prefer.

The JVC Quad Proof GZ-R550 EverioR camcorder has a whopping 32GB of internal memory, the most of any camcorder we tested. Depending on the resolution you shoot in, you can store anywhere from about 2.

The Samsung HMX-F90 takes relatively crisp video and has unique, fun in-camera editing features to enhance your footage. This camcorder is among the lightest we tested at 7.7 ounces, and while some of our reviewers liked the lightweight feel, others were worried it would break easily.

A lot of things about this camera make it more fun to use than the others we tested. For one thing, it has a reverse camera located on the side of the LCD monitor.

This camcorder isn’t as physically attractive as sleeker models. Its square removable battery sticks awkwardly out of the back, making it look old fashioned and cumbersome.

This camcorder can hold its own against the others we tested when it comes to extra features. It just doesn’t take the best video.

This camcorder is very similar to the other Sony we tested, the Handycam HDR-CX440, except that it lacks integrated Wi-Fi. It can film in up to 1080p high definition video and has a rotating LCD screen you navigate with a toggle button.

Editor’s Note: This product has been removed from our side-by-side comparison because it has been discontinued.

The ION Pics 2 SD is a slide to digital image converter with a top-loading port for converting your physical prints. Its decently large screen makes it easy to preview and convert your classic media as well as navigate its menu.

The Veho Smartfix Slide & Negative to SD Card is an easy-to-use and feature-rich slide to digital image converter.
