The Samsung S85 is a high-resolution digital camera that is equipped with a true-color filtered 8.2 mega-pixel CCD. This allows the Samsung S85 to produce even better images and...
more...take detailed photos for printing up to poster size. In addition, the Samsung S85 has a 5x optical and 5x digital zoom giving 25x total zoom when combined. With the Face Recognition AF&AE function, the Samsung S85 enables the user to take better portrait pictures more easily. The function detects faces and automatically focuses on them; the brightness of the faces is adjusted optimally for beautiful portrait pictures. Fast ASR technology prevents the degradation of image clarity and color which is sometimes found in flash photography. With Fast ASR the effects of image blur are reduced in lower light conditions. You can even take well exposed, sharper pictures in low light conditions without using a flash at all, which guarantees brighter and more natural pictures. Even when camera shake has been eliminated, a fast moving subject can cause the image to blur. The S85 supports ISO 1600 high sensitivity to give you super clear pictures with just the right amount of brightness, even when taking moving subjects under less-than-perfect lighting conditions. The Samsung S85 has a 2.5" LCD with improved contrast and color reproduction for easy image framing and reviewing. With the Face Recognition AF & AE function, the Samsung S85 enables the user to take better portrait pictures more easily. The function detects faces and automatically focuses on them; the brightness of the faces is adjusted optimally for beautiful portrait pictures.

Full review
In my experience this is an excellent digital camera. The quality of the pictures is much better than the Sony brand that I was using previously. My pictures always seem to come out clear regardless of the amount of light available.

I am quite fond of the large preview screen on the back. It is larger than the preview screens on other cameras I looked at when making the purchase. The preview on the screen is always very crisp. I have found this to be extremely useful when taking my pictures.

My only real complaint about this camera is the fact that it burns through batteries faster than I would have expected. I've learned, however, to always carry extra batteries and the battery charger when travelling.
