I've had this camera for approximately 2 years and it is a great camera. If you use the Rechargeable Energizer battery that is together-- not the double A then it gives you better quality pictures and the battery lasts 30 times longer. (I'm not exagerating). It is my first Digital Camera and there is no complaint for that price. It is an amazing lil cute camera. I would recommend it to anyone. =)

When I took pictures with the camera, they looked great on the screen. Then, when I took them to be printed off, they turned out blurry. Eventually, the pictures even on the screen became VERY blurry to where you couldn't even tell what the picture was.

thought and still think that it a wonderful camera.ive had mine since april and not had a problem with it,the family say that im the david bailey out of the family,always with me taking shots. excellent finished products when downloaded to my pc and printed off,only one minor detail is that you have keep reminding yourself to keep the lens free of dust because until you upload them on pc you dont see it,which isnt too much of a problem unless your totally dumb and do keep forgetting !!!!!haha!!! samsung are a great maker of technology and i do own a few samsung items and had no probs nice one samsung!!!!keep them coming xxxx

I have no complaints whatsoever about this beautiful little camera. For the price (£79 from ASDA) it has to have 5 stars from me! Excellent resolution, good control over white balance and exposure, tastefully crafted outer shell, intuitive and functional menu system. The camera will accept 256 MB S/D cards as expansion, but already has 16 MB built in which I feel would be enough for the casual user. Takes 2 AA size cells or a CRV3 battery pack. I recommend using NiMH cells in this baby, because alkaline cells die within 20 minutes. All in all, this camera is spot on for the price!!!

Great camera for the money! I have had it for 6 months now and have taken over 3,000 pics. No complaints. It does eat batteries, so I recommend the lithiums. Camera and assesory kit(Tripod, case, 256 mem and cables) was 119.99 Candian. Cant beat that!!

Excellent camera for the money (£88 - 7 months ago) It takes wonderful pictures, with fab colour and very clear. the only reason it hasn't got 5 stars is because if you try to zoom in on a picture taken with the camera and save it, then it loses some of the clarity of the picture, but otherwise we love it! We found it used the batteries quite quickly - then we were informed that ordinary batteries are no good in digitals and rechargeables are better... and they are! Much! Would recommend.

It worked very well for the first few months, but then the flash started to work only sporadically. Now the camera won't even turn on. When I try, it will sometimes make a funny high pitched noise or turn on to a white screen for a split second or not respond at all (most common). It has turned on a couple of times sporadically. Cheap, but not worth the money. Invest a few more bucks for a better camera.

Brought this camera today without my partner knowing that I was getting it. He was going on about buying one (didn't know which one) so i went out and picked it up ASDA (yes i know it sounds strange but it was less then £80). So far have taken a few picture shots & its great. Very easy to use compared to others out there & at less then double the price. Recommended.

Small, inexpensive and easy to use. It will go great with me on deployments. Great pixs out of this thing when using the flash or broad daylight. I carry multiple rechargable batteries since it does use them up quickly with the flash. Installed memory is more than enough for a night out or day at the park with the kids. You'll need more memory if you plan on taking videos with this. My girls love the cutie frames.

I've had the camera for 3 months now and I have mostly praises for it.(+) Lightweight, good res, features and user-freindliness. (-) LCD difficult to see outdoors, tripod mount too lateral - easily tips over, uses batteries at a furious rate! To conserve batteries I often have to switch the flash off and just overexpose.

Perhaps I bought a lemon; my new camera has a malfunction that I cannot troubleshoot; Samsung has not been of any assistance; Once the power is turned on, LCD screen lights up, but none of the control buttons will respond; to turn off battery power I must open battery compartment. I am not covered by warranty since camera was purchased in NYC, and taken out of the couintry.

Great little camera at a great price. I've used it for a couple of months. I bought it to use for work to document projects, but have taken to carrying it on the motorcycle to take snapshots of my trips. I bought a 64mb card which lets me take 57 pictures at the highest resolution setting. The images are more than adequate for my applications, but it would be nice if the batteries lasted longer. The flash seems to shorten the battery life considerably. I bought it for the small size, the acceptable picture quality, the alkaline battery instead of a rechargable and the USB cable instead of a memory stick. I own a larger & better digital camera, but it is so big that I rarely take it with me. I can easily slip this one in my pocket and the cost is small enough that I don't worry if I drop it and break it. If you're looking for professional quality photography from this little camera then don't buy it. If you're looking for a small camera that takes a pretty good picture and you don't want to spend a bundle then this is the camera for you (and me!).

Just got the camera, with a little time to read the instrution manual, I`ve found it to be very easy to operate, I love the Fact that you can take pictures in Normal, Black&White, and Sepia, As for the quality of the Pics, I`m very pleased with the finished product. The software is also easy to download and understand. I`m very Happy with this little camera, plus your getting a Samsung at a reasonable Price.

the camera had a nice screen and light body wonderful look and feel. but hard to get a good pic out of it unless the conditions were close to perfect. and sometimes even then you could not. I am talking in conditions when any camara should be good like outside in the middle of the day I used all kinds of settings still I got 3 or 4 good pics and the rest were all fuzzy. I would say dont waste your time yea the price is nice but you get what you pay for. I knew it was too good to be true but had to see for myself well lucky for a 14 day return policy
