Say what you will, but Toshiba has managed to time the Camelio S20 just right -- it was the very same day that our Flip Slide HD frustrations were reaching epi...

Toshiba Camileo S20

It may be thin and light--even for a pocket camcorder--but the ultraslim Toshiba Camileo S20 ($180 as of 5/7/2010) packs more features into its frame than any high-definition pocket camcorder we've tested to date.

Time-lapse mode, white balance presets, fun extras ; LED lamp for low-light shooting ; Very slim and light

Menu navigation and zoom can be frustrating ; No built-in USB connector ; Plastic, cheap-feeling build

For sheer bang for the buck, look no further than the fun-filled, 1080p-shooting Toshiba Camileo S20. It's unsurpassed in features, but we've seen better usability and build quality.

Toshiba Camileo S20 Pocket Camcorder Review

The S20 has three distinct strengths and two glaring weaknesses. On the plus side, it is super slim, has a large (for its class, anyway) 3.0-inch display, and comes loaded with extras like the HDMI cable and mini tripod.

Toshiba Camileo S20 pocket camcorder

Toshiba's Camileo S20 camcorder is feature-packed, but has finicky controls

Time-lapse mode, white balance presets, fun extras, LED lamp for low-light shooting, Very slim and light

Menu navigation and zoom can be frustrating, no built-in USB connector, cheap-feeling build

For sheer bang for the buck, look no further than the fun-filled, 1080p-shooting Toshiba Camileo S20. It's unsurpassed in features, but we've seen better usability and build quality.

Toshiba Camileo S20

The Toshiba Camileo S20 is certainly a great-looking pocket camcorder but how well does it perform under testing?

Thinnest HD camcorder on market, Reasonably priced

Lacks manual controls, Image stabilisation not available in Full HD mode, Substandard image quality

Toshiba Camileo S20 camcorder

The Toshiba Camileo S20 is one of the more compact HD camcorders on the market, lying squarely with models like the Flip Ultra HD and Kodak Zi8 , rather than larger "fully-fledged" camcorders. As such, it comes in with a price of £119. But what do you...

Plenty of shooting options, kit includes everything you need (excluding an SD card)

Poor low light performance, headline Full HD video doesn't quite offer the quality you expect, build quality questionable

The Toshiba Camileo packs in more features than many other pocket camcorders and comes at a reasonably friendly price point. However, given the more sophisticated flip-out screen, it is more prone to damage than rivals from Flip, Creative and Kodak....

Toshiba Camileo S20 Review

The S20 is one of many in the mini-budget camcorder market, but it does have a few features that make it stand out, especially its (very) slim body, and (very) light weight. Another advantage it has over competition like the Flip cameras is the form...

Toshiba Camileo S20

A decent performer with a nice price and a good set of accessories. Shame about the clunky menu system though.

When you consider what you get for your dosh, the Camileo S20 offers very good value for money. It's compact, includes HD video, has loads of useful accessories and offers a pretty good performance. Non-Windows users would be wise to check thoroughly...
