Optics
The SCD23 features a high-performance 1/6” 680,000 Pixel CCD to capture high-quality video and digital photos. It’s also fitted with a 10X optical zoom and a 800X digital zoom lens. Digital zoom is a powerful tool, but it can lead to “jaggies” — zigzag contours that reduce picture quality. Samsung has applied a Digital Image Stabilizer to correct this problem.
Digital Stills and MPEG Video
The scd23 can cpature videos in MPEG4 format at a resolution of QVGA 10fps. In addition to high-quality video, the SCD23 also captures digital still photos that are stored on a memory card as JPEGs in your choice of three image qualities.
Inputs and Outputs
The SCD23 comes with an IEEE1394(In/Out), USB interface, Audio/Video Ports, and an S-Video Cable port.
MiniDV Format
MiniDV is the preferred format for personal and broadcast-quality video, highly regarded for its high audio and image quality. With up to 540 lines of horizontal resolution and minimum color noise, MiniDV delivers a 20-percent clearer picture than analog camcorder formats. This is all delivered on a cassette that’s 1/12th the size of a standard VHS tape. A MiniDV tape offers digital recording time of 2 full hours — 20 times the capacity of a CD.
What’s included
Camcorder, AC Adapter/Charger, Battery Pack, Hand Grip, Remote Control, S-Video Cable, and Memory Stick.

I was not pleased at all with this camcorder. The video quality is very grainy especcially in low light. Although it is a compact easy to use camcorder the video quality is horrible. The USB connection is most frustrating as well. For me it diddnt even import the video, you cant get the computer to detect it either. I dont know if i have to get a firewire thing or what. I will not recomend this camcorder to knowbody.

Nice body and display as well as good picture recording ability
Rating: 5 / 5
This camcorder comes with very poor image quality and is hard to hold and operate. With namebrand camcorders from JVC and Sharp going for less money and having more zoom and much, much, much better picture quality, this one shouldn’t even be on your consideration list for a MiniDV camcorder.
