    This a is an overall good camera. Great pics, lots of different options, but the reason i give it 2 stars is because Of battery life. The batteries on my camera last barely 5 minutes, usually around 3 1/2- 4 mins.. Ive gone through 2 22 packs of double a batteries in the 3 weeks ive had it. Ive decided just to leave it rather than sped wayy more money on double A's. Pros: Great pictures Lots of cool options light inexpensive Compatible with many different types of cards Takes Relatively good movies. Cons Low battery life Lot of shutter lag there appears to be no battery savers option NO VIEWFINDER Just BATTERY EATING lcd screen.

    I keep this camera in my service truck for those broken parts that has little or no description in the service manual or parts books. The NiMh batteries I use is rated for 2600MH and seems to keep the charge for three months. The truck is cold on cold days but the camera starts right up. When the batteries dies or not work from cold, I use the NiMh batteries from my AA led flash light. I rate this a 4 star; I need a viewfinder when it bright sunlight and It's hard to focus.

    Quick camera features review: runs on 2 AA batteries, either nimh or alkaline (I rec: nimh) 2 GB memory card has space for over 1200 photos at 6mp. (not included) optical and digital zooms, optional image stabilization, various single picture modes, video, programmable, timer mode, manual aperture (etc)... big bright display on the back, fairly easy to use controls. Not to small. Automatic dust cover closes on power-off. The things I like about it, and why I bought it: it supports about as many modes as my older full-size Olympus (cost over 3x as mych), uses AA batteries (any kind), has a big viewer, uses commonly available media cards, is fairly small (bar of soap), common mini-usb plug to transfer pictures, cost less than $100. 6 megapixel. It may not have the optics or ultra-clarity of a $1500 SLR, but for a "toss in the backpack or car and use as desired" camera, it going to be hard to beat.

    Okay, so you pick up the camera. The first thing you feel is the cheap plastic. We're not talking the same plastic most digital cameras are made of; this is CHEAP! Without batteries, it is by far the lightest digital camera I have ever held. That is already a turn off in my opinion. I doesn't look or feel, in any way, durable. I'm afraid of squeezing it too hard in the anticipation it will crack. Not good. It has the same amount of buttons and switches most point and shoot cameras possess, the power button, the shutter button, a menu button, etc. The one thing it does have that most don't is the turntable switch to choose different modes of shots, which is usually only found on SLRs. I don't know if Samsung thought this would be appealing to people. It certainly makes switching shots quicker, but it's not going to cancel out the horrible body. The startup time of the camera is quite fast with no welcome screen, so that's good. The first thing that I want to do is get i... Read more
