Bottom line
For good-enough video for Web sharing and a 20x zoom lens, the Samsung HMX-QF20 gets the job done.
Typical for their price class, the no-frills Sony Handycam HDR-CX130, CX160, and XR160 produce generally subpar HD video, but if you're not picky you'll probably be fine. The CX130 is the best buy of the three, as long as you go cheap on the memory card.
