Samsung 420

Pros: Excellent pictures, good menus, good control set. Video clips with sound are unlimited length.

Cons: Only 16 megs of onboard camera memory, Video is lower resolution than other digicams.

The Bottom Line: I would recommend this camera for its extreme value in picture quality and flexibility.

Review: I really like the Samsung 420 4 megapixel camera. It takes excellent pictures and has a good autofocus. Its small, partially due to the fact that it uses smart media cards and only 2 AA batteries. The screen is sharp and detailed, the menus are easy ...

Pros: Reliable camera, with excellent resolution. Video snips are cute.

Cons: No software for Mac, to hard for the "beginner", shaky when zooming

The Bottom Line: I would reccommend it, for anyone who has used a digital camera before. It operates easily enough, and takes quality shots.

Review: I recently purchased this camera for home/work use. Working at a newspaper means that you need to have a reliable camera, which will take quality shots. I believe I got just that. With its easy to decipher options, and variety of image capabilities, I ...

Pros: Cheap,good picture quality, easy to use

Cons: If you use alkaline batteries this camera will eat them up, use lithium batteries!

Review: I only paid $250.00 for this camera and to be honest it was worth it! Everyone complains about the battery life and it is true that if you use standard alkaline batteries the camera will eat them up. However I called Samsung's tech support and they ...

Pros: Sharp, clear images

Cons: Battery life is TERRIBLE and so is the video portion of the camera

The Bottom Line: For the price, I guess we got what we paid for. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone looking for a serious camera.

Review: We bought the camera...a Samsung Digimax 420...at Walmart a few years ago. We paid a little over $200 for it. It is our first digital camera and it really takes nice pictures! There are a few things we don't like about it but the good outweighs the ...

Pros: Cheap, good indoor (with flash) pics, easy to use

Cons: Very poor alkaline battery life. Picture quality very disappointing, plastic casing

Review: Sturdy feel for a plastic case. Overall conception designed for people who want to take photos easily. I previously owned a Fuji 3.2 mega pixel camera and to be honest the picture quality was infinately better. But then again this is a cheap camera. I ...

Pros: Great picture quality, ease of use

Cons: Random shut-off, short battery life

The Bottom Line: I regret to say that you should probably avoid this camera unless you can buy a used one at a bargain price.

Review: I really like this camera for picture quality and ease of use. However, I've experienced some of the same problems mentioned by others -- the camera randomly shuts off at times and can be nearly impossible to turn back on. Sometimes toggling the power ...

Pros: cheap, decent picture quality, video capabilities

Cons: battery life, shutter lag, slow loading

Review: I bought this camera after reading good reviews, and have been so disappointed. After enduring it for over a year I am finally buying a new one. The shutter lag (time from when you press the shutter button to the time it actually takes the pic) is ...
