Samsung Digital Cameras

Samsung NV24HD

The Samsung NV24HD makes the best of the NV series' smart touch interface. The intuitive menu system does away with wading through menus and with two mode dials, you have plenty of control. Add in excellent image quality and you've got one enormously clever compact

Samsung i70

The multi-purpose, multimedia Samsung i70 is a stylish and capable point-and-shoot camera. It includes a video recorder, multimedia player, text viewer and voice recorder. It looks terrific, with its 76mm screen taking up the whole back, and -- crucially -- is available in a range of pretty colours

Samsung L830

Considering its low price, the Samsung L830 offers a lot of camera for experienced, budget-minded photographers. It gives snappers manual exposure modes and colour channel controls, plus a handful of scene presets and automatic shooting, so you can be as hands-on as you want

Samsung NV15

The Samsung NV15 is one well-designed camera. With its 'smart touch' user interface, its touch-sensitive buttons make using the camera wonderfully simple, intuitive and tactile. A wealth of features are included to make your photos appear vibrant and crisp -- it's an exceptional all-rounder

Samsung L77

For a simple, pocket-friendly point-and-shoot camera, try Samsung's new L77 compact. Its powerful lens stays completely inside the camera, allowing the camera to stay nice and slim while you're shooting. It handles most of the exposure controls manually so you don't have to. Talk about a hidden camera

Samsung NV10

Part of Samsung's quirky, attractive NV series, the NV10 is an ultracompact 10-megapixel shooter with 3x optical zoom. Its Smart Touch interface takes some getting used to, but its vividly coloured images and impressive range of manual options certainly make it worth a look

Samsung NV11

The Samsung NV11 is one sensitive camera. Instead of using a joypad or a touchscreen, this 10-megapixel camera uses touch sensor buttons at the bottom and right of its screen to navigate menus and settings. Using its snapshot-friendly features is as simple as a slide of your finger

Editor's rating 7.2

Samsung S1050

Just like the S850, the Samsung S1050 offers several features for more experienced photographers, with exposure controls that grant a great deal of flexibility. It also includes face-tracking autofocus and a huge 76mm (3-inch) LCD. With its 10 megapixels, the S1050 is certainly a more mature option

Editor's rating 6.0

Samsung i7

Samsung's i7 could be a character in the new Transformers movie -- the screen rotates to turn it from a compact camera to an MP3 player to a portable media player. It takes decent pictures, too

Editor's rating 6.4

Samsung NV7 OPS

The inexpensive Samsung NV7 OPS offers a 7-megapixel CCD with sensor-shift mechanical image stabilisation, a broad set of semi-manual controls and a 7x zoom lens. But it's the mini-tank design and innovative interface that make it stand out

Editor's rating 6.8

Samsung L74 Wide

The 7-megapixel Samsung L74 Wide, as its name suggests, sports a wide-angle lens, which is great for taking photos of landscapes and groups of friends. Samsung also includes shake reduction for steady shots and includes a unique on-camera guidebook with information on world landmarks

Editor's rating 5.8

Samsung GX-10

The Samsung GX-10 is a feature-packed, well-designed and capable shooter, especially for its price range. Its menus and buttons are easily manipulated and its dust-and-weather-sealed body is comfortable to hold. With a large feature set, this 10-megapixel snapper is one to consider

Editor's rating 7.7

Samsung NV3

Samsung's NV3 is a stylish and slim compact camera, but it's by no means lacking in features. It boasts a very healthy 7 megapixels, plenty of scene modes and a built-in MP3 player -- handy if you're going away. The NV3's image quality is good too, and its affordable price tag makes it a strong contender if you're looking for an all-round ultracompact

Samsung Digimax S600

Samsung calls its S-series cameras point-and-shoots, but these slim snappers offer controls that set them apart from the mindless auto-only cameras. The Digimax S600, however, does let itself down considerably on image quality, and it might well be worth stepping up to a better-performing model, such as the Samsung Digimax L60

Samsung Digimax L60

The Samsung Digimax L60 is a solid point-and-shoot camera with a handful of image settings, good performance and decent image quality. Its burst mode is slower than that of most cameras of its class, but if you're not shooting sports and don't mind an occasional purple halo it's certainly a strong choice

Samsung Digimax S800

Samsung categorises its S-series cameras as point-and-shoots, but they have so many controls they could reach beyond the majority of simple snapshot cameras. Unfortunately, unintuitive menus and poor image quality keep the 8.1-megapixel Samsung Digimax S800 from reaching its potential

Editor's rating 5.2

Samsung Digimax L85

The Samsung Digimax L85 is a functional 8-megapixel digital camera. Its chunky, retro design belies its very flexible, high-end feature set, including the unique ability to output HDMI. As long as you don't mind its propensity for fringing on edges and the lack of a fast burst mode, you'll find the Samsung Digimax L85 a versatile, quality shooter

Samsung Digimax i5

Samsung's 5-megapixel ultracompact entry, the Digimax i5, offers a competitive feature set housed in a slender body. Interesting features and a bright 64mm LCD, however, don't compensate for listless performance and mediocre image quality

Editor's rating 5.6

Samsung Digimax Pro 815

The Samsung Digimax Pro 815 swaggers into shot boasting 8 megapixels, a humungous 15x optical zoom and an equally vast 89mm (3.5-inch) rear LCD, one of three screens on the camera. However, it doesn't offer optical image stabilisation -- a perplexing omission

Samsung Digimax i5

Samsung dips its toe in the ultracompact pond with this promising little digicam. It offers 5 megapixels, voice recording, a 64mm display and a 3x optical zoom that, unusually, works with the VGA movie mode
