Even if you’re a lefty, it records just right!

Even if you’re a lefty, it records just right Ever since its birth, camcorders spent most of their life (when turned on) on the right hand of the user. There is no exception- whether it’s expensive or affordable, black or white. If death and tax is inevitable for human beings, the right hand is for camcorders. However, you don’t need to be boxer to be adroit lefty and using the camcorder is not as difficult as doing a cross counter.

‘Why are camcorders right-handed?’ Samsung came up with an answer to the simple but obvious question that many should have wondered about. Did you know that Samsung released the first ever Switch Grip camera at CES in January called the HMX-Q10 HD camcorder?

Switch Grip literally means that you can switch hands for free movement. A very sensible innovation that could not have happened without caring for the users. Various video clips in different circumstances using the unique Switch Grip feature were released on YouTube to help understand what Switch Grip is all about. Here are some glimpses of fun moments from a birthday party, the baseball stadium, cooking, and birth.

# Ep.1 – Kate’s Birthday

Camcorders are popular among parents who want to capture lovely images of their children. As you can see in the video, filming and controlling the child can become more than a handful. With the Q10, you can capture every moment and every expression of your child without missing a moment.

# Ep.2 – The Fan

I’m sure this often happens in baseball and soccer stadiums. There is a saying, ‘Do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing,’ and the moment of discovery with the fan on the right side is definitely going to be awkward.

# Ep.3 – Easy Cooking

Camcorder in one hand and knife in the other! Don’t you ever get the urge to get intimate with your cooking like this? With the OIS Duo function, the Q10 is very effective in capturing objects without shaking.

# Ep.4 – Delivery Room

Is there a happy moment that you want to remember forever? If so, make sure to capture it on video. For example, one of those moments is the birth of your child. The delivery room is filled with the happiness of welcoming a new life and the instant suffering. Cheer up your wife with both your hands!

Switch Grip, HD recording, and OIS Duo – with these three functions, the HMX-Q10 promises the best of moments.

Thanks.
