Digital camera reviews of Samsung S860 8.1MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom (Black)

Digital camera Review: Nice Camera for an affordable price
Summary: 4 Stars

this camera is worth each penny it costs me! Nice pictures and great output

worth owning it...

Digital camera Review: No Luck
Summary: 1 Stars

I have had absolutely no luck with this camera. Never focuses, and eats batteries within minutes. Samsung was no help. Stay away.

Digital camera Review: Normal Camera nothing great
Summary: 3 Stars

I purchased this camera over a year ago. Theres nothing fancy or special about it. If your looking for simple and inexpensive this is your choice. If you want somthing with more features however, I would look elsewhere.

Digital camera Review: Not what i thought
Summary: 1 Stars

The processing speed between photo's is 10 seconds so you can not take any action shots with this camera.

Digital camera Review: OK Camera for the Price
Summary: 3 Stars

The Samsung S860 is most suitable for those who need a fairly inexpensive compact camera that takes acceptable quality pictures most settings. This is not a camera for the serious photographer, but is good enough as a backup or for teens. Here are my observations:

Pros -
+ Inexpensive; good features for the price
+ Small Size; fits easily in a pocket or purse
+ Good Movie Mode; not HD, but usable for school projects
+ Good Face Detection; ensures people stay in focus
+ Artistic Mode; including Black & White, Sepia, Red, Blue, Green, and Negative
+ 3x Optical Zoom; while I don't like the button placement, the zoom is responsive
+ Good Picture Quality; when the flash is used or in bright lighting, the picture quality is good

Cons -
- Poor Low Light Quality; this camera needs light!
- Poor "Recycle Time"; time between pictures can be several seconds
- Poor Battery Life; really should use rechargeables (takes 2x AA) as regular batteries die fast when using the flash

My daughter was given this camera as gift by a friend and she is happy enough with it, but I wouldn't trust it capture important family memories.
