Replaces a camcorder [Posted on 2007-05-10] One of the things that other reviewers left out is how great a camcorder this is. Ok, I know it is a camera, but in video mode it will shoot a high quality video for about one and one half hours with a 2 Gb card. It uses Sd cards, very cheap (I paid $19 for mine on sale at Best Buy). It has an image stabilizer built in but you still have to hold it steady, a tripod is best. When I show friends video they cannot believe it is from a camera. Mpeg4 640X480 at 30 frames per second. The really cool thing is you can zoom while video recording. Most cameras do not allow this. It is only 3 times optical but I have had good results filming little league baseball.
As a camera, it is fair. Good prints but long shutter lag. You can put it on program rather than auto and then force the flash to always go off. You get better pictures inside and out. The backlight function works very well as another reviewer mentioned.
It is small so I carry it everywhere and makes a great second camera.
Totally L O V E my camera [Posted on 2007-06-14] due to my being lazy i'm just now writing a review! i've had my camera since august of '06 and absolutely LOVE it! My pictures are crisp/clear, camera's compact enough to fit in my little purse and it goes everywhere with me! my only issue is that I paid $189 +tax and as u can see it's a lot cheaper now! Go for it!!!!!!!!!!!
Good value [Posted on 2007-08-23] Camera has good features, is compact, battery lasts a long time, big LCD screen to pre-view your shot and it's priced right!
greatly disappointed [Posted on 2008-01-06] I purchased this camera as a gift for my son a year ago. He has had little occasion to use it. He estimates it's been used 4 times. Now as he attempts to use it over the holidays, the shutter won't open and the lens won't come forward as the camera is turned on. It is two weeks out of the manufacturer warranty. Of course, neither Amazon or Samsung wish to accept responsibility now that it's out of warranty. They wish me to pay more to have a camera repaired that's had very limited use. I certainly don't wish to purchase any more Samsung products and must admit I'm very disappointed with Amazon's response, considering how many items I've purchased through them.
Sllllloooooowww shutter [Posted on 2008-07-22] Once you take the picture the is camera incredibly slow and delayed in actually taking the picture. Unless you have a very patient target many times you will lose the moment or end up with a moving target due to this long delay. So slow I would never recommend this camera. Many times I end up taking moveis vs. pictures too, in error. I am absolutely NOT a professional, but do have common sense and it tells me this camera is no good for an average user. I purchased based on the positive reviews, but have to 100% disagree.
