Advantages: Clear pictures Disadvantages: Flash is too bright
...expensive!
The camera is Samsung DIGIMAX A502. As you can see in the picture up top, it is black and silver in colour, I don't like the all-silver ones. Other colours available for the same model are, red and silver, or neo silver, although I wasn't offered a choice of colours so presume they only had the black and silver in stock which I would have chosen anyway.

Advantages: Good value, easy to use, small & lightweight Disadvantages: Not very good for night-time shots
I've had this camera for about 18 months now and it has proved to be an excellent investment.
It's a great point-and-shoot camera, and is very easy to use. I really use it exclusively on the 'Auto' setting, and it does me proud. However there are more manual settings available should you want to tinker about a bit more. Personally, I find it easier just to leave it on Auto and then mess about with my photos in Photoshop once I've uploaded them to ... ...menus and buttons on this camera are really easy to use, and I've never had any problems in finding my way around it. Battery-wise, it can guzzle the batteries a bit - so I'd recommend rechargables to cut down on the cost.
I'd recommend this camera either to a beginner in the world of digital photography, or for someone that is happy with taking family and holiday snaps. I've somewhat grown out of it after 18 months of use...but that is more because ...

this is a good compact camera, although the camera is small and takes a long time to save the pictures it is good becasue the pictures are kept ot a minimum size so you can store many. the camera could do with other things like more frames and a lens cap due to the fact that my lens cap got scratched once or twice;. you can have a lot of modes for the camera, night mode, day mode, landscape and close up etc. the camera has one main disadvange in ...

I have solved this problem by purchasing rechargable batteries this saves time and money.
