Samsung NV11

Advantages: 10.1 million pixels, numerous zooms, automatic shake reduction
Disadvantages: touch buttons activate when aiming to take a picture

...I was recently looking to buy a new digital camera and saw the samsung NV11. It is a sleek black camera which looks different from the usual stainless steel slimline cameras I had looked at. It has 10.1 million pixels and many features to help take great pictures such as the automatic shake reduction. When I received it, I was faced with a big user manual on the software disc provided. However, I started taking pictures on the automatic mode and downloaded them on my computer. I was amazed at the picture quality especially when blowing them up. I will leave the manual for when I want to do something more with my pictures. I was surprised at the ease of use for standard picture taking and the incredible quality but I would recommend using the software provided as some of the pictures can look blurry when displayed on other picture...

Jack Of All Trades - The Samsung NV3

Advantages: Great pictures, User Friendly, Good Speakers, Many Options, Superb Screen, Good Video, Reliable
Disadvantages: Perhaps not for the more hardcore user, needs extra investment for memory card

...I have owned my Samsung NV3 for well over a year now, and it still manages to impress me every time I use it. As a camera, it is amazingly user friendly, packs a bunch of great features, is highly reliable, looks superb, and is extremely good value. Oh, and its not bad at taking pictues either. In fact, the pictures are outstanding. The NV3 finds the perfect balance feature wise; it won't overwhelm, but has plenty of depth with regards to options. For those who know how, there is plently to adjust to your liking, but you can also take a pre-set option, which, thanks to the 'Scene' mode, there are many of, for every occasion. It is extremely easy to use, with simple menus to help you change eveything from megapixels to shutter speed to the flash, as well as add effects and even audio. The camera also has an anti shudder feature, which...

SAMSUNG NV24HD

Advantages: Compact and excellent photos and videos
Disadvantages: Mute during filming of an action on the zoom + zoom too sensitive

...Main features of the digital camera SAMSUNG NV24HD (New Vision 24 High Definition): -- very compact and flat -- Ultra-wide angle 24mm: brilliant! -- Very good sensitivity and super video quality photos (nickel up to 400 ISO included) -- Stabilizer images (photos & videos) -- HD video sophisticated (H.264) with stereo sound! -- Screen AMOLED (Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode) very accurate, very colorful, true in the colors and with a very wide angle of vision: fabulous, unique and unrivalled at the moment! -- Protective glass screen in polycarbonate hardened and anti-reflection (nothing to do with my old Canon PowerShot A70!) -- "Selection matrix" parameters (for me, much better than the "rose" traditional) -- Function "ACB" (dynamic control and automatic contrast? as the FX500) -- Shooting burst (as...

Snappy happy with the Samsung Digimax Duo camera

Advantages: size, battery life
Disadvantages: no screen, no add on memoery, older model so hard to find

...Ok I am now going to go into unexplored territory today by telling you all about the digital camera I have use of. It is not mine, it is my boyfriend?s camera and he got it for Christmas two Christmases ago. I use it quite a lot so feel I am able to comment on it. The model in question is the Samsung Digimax 50 Duo camera. What is it? It is a fairly simple digital camera which is so easy to work. It is also a lovely compact size being only 3.6x2.6x1.4 inches and weighing only 4.2oz.4 so it is easy to carry around with you. It can also be used as a low resolution webcam with 12 images per minute. However I have never used it for this purpose so can not comment on this. I would think the reason why it was chosen was because of Samsung being a reputable brand in the field of cameras. What does it come with? It comes...

Samsung NV7 review

Advantages: Superb design, Intuitive menus.
Disadvantages: Image quality, ISO response, innacurate manual setting

...I bought this camera as something to chuck in my bag on trips, as I was using a canon 20d or a nikon f5 on outings and they seemed a bit overkill for casual snaps. I wanted a quality digital compact camera and after checking a few reviews the NV7 seemed the job. I should say that I am used to high quality results from my mamiya RZ672 and horseman 4x5 cameras, as well as the 2 I mentioned above, and of course I will not compare these cameras to a comparatively cheap digital compact camera, but I can't guarantee this review won't be affected by the standards I've become used to. ANYWAY, on with it. If you appreciate nice aesthetics, you will love the design of this camera. A very solid design, all aluminium front and rear plates, A decent quality Schneider lens, Minimal marking and the all important glowing ring around the power button...

Samsung NV7 OPS Camera Review

Advantages: Slick retro look combining anti shake and optical zoom for perfect photos.
Disadvantages: Little slow on consecutive shots and new interface may take a little getting used to.

...If you are still thinking about it, stop thinking and buy it because it is a fanatastic bit of kit. Easy to use for beginners with a huge array of in-depth features for the advanced user as well. Every option from automatic picture control to the ability to change colours, focus points and exposure times. The anti-shake modes combined with a tremendous optical zoom mean that distant shots are now crisp and clear. The ASR mode allows low light shots to be taken as well without the blurring and movement cameras of the past have had. The NV7 OPS uses Samsungs new user interface that consists of touch sensitive buttons aranged around the bottom and right of the screen, used like coordinates in battleships, eg slide along one side and select with the other side. It seems a bit strange to begin with but if you have ever used anything...

Snap Happy Samsung!

Advantages: Great camera at a great price.
Disadvantages: None at the price, you get a great item for what you pay!

...I bought this camera in ASDA at the incredible price of £75 in a gorgeous chrome silver colour (pictured). I am probably one of the most indecisive shoppers around, so when it came to buying a digital camera, I was thoroughly confused by the choice and newly released technology, meaning every week a new camera with more mega pixels and better zoom and a toaster built in was released! This certainly does not making chosing easy! Well, thanks to the advice of the very helpful assistant in ASDA, I was able to finally decide on the Samsung ES55 and have no regrets! Ok, so how do you chose the right camera for you? It's all about accepting there is SO much variety but making sure you know what you want, that way you can really trim down the choice. Also, pick a reliable brand and as I have been informed, Samsung are one of the best. I had...

Problems with NV8

Advantages: Overall good camera..
Disadvantages: Is not compatible with computers..

...The camera itself is actually very good considering some of the turkeys Samsung has produced. Picture quality is quite good as is the interface, features, build quality and its excellent looks. A minor complaint is the lack of a viewfinder. The central and deal-breaking problem however is the software. Unlike older Samsung cameras where one's computer automatically recognised the camera when you just plugged in the USB cable, the NV8 has some very serious driver/software issues, which is why you should test each unit in-store before purchase. The long and the short of it is that all the computers (5) I tried to connect the camera to will not under any circumstance recognise it no matter what you do. You thus cannot download pictures from it at all the USB route. I suspect these problems are a result of the "recharge via the USB...
