Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Samsung Digimax i5 5MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom (Silver)
Customer Review: Great piece of kit - Full marks for Samsung
Summary: 5 Stars
I chose this camera over the Canon Ixus range, the Sony cybershots, the Nikon S1 and S3, the Fuji Z1 and the Olympus range.
Reason - Saw most of the cameras in various shops (all great pieces of electronics) however the samsung was well priced and had one or two slightly better features in the price range and above.
Size - Perfect (small)
Build - Solid, robust
Picture quality - Very good
Video - 30fps. Awesome, I thought I wouldn't use it but it is very handy. Quality looks great.
Useability - Very good, I have fat fingers from sports yet still find the buttons and keypad easy to navigate.
LCD - Large, about 230,000 pixels. Twice the resolution of the other cameras (see for yourself). The screen looks great and the refresh rate is fast so the sceen appears smooth when you move it. Compared to the fuji Z1, though very nice and well price, there is a noticable lag in the Fuji's screen.
conclusion
The camera feels sturdy in your hand, and starts up very quickly for quick shots. It's given me great shots so far at parties, social events and everyday life and has a large selection of modes and features if you ever wanted to use them. Personally auto works well for me since all I want to do is take great pictures easily and quickly...but isn't that the point of compact cameras!? I feel 'average' people are getting too technical and moving away from the primary purpose of a camera!
In one sentence:
A great camera in all aspects, will not disappoint.
