Samsung Digital Cameras, Compact

Samsung ST1000

The 12.2-megapixel ST1000 is a classy camera, with a great design and top-notch, ultra-high-resolution touchscreen. The real stars of the show, though, are its Wi-Fi, bluetooth and GPS features. We've seen wireless cameras before, but Samsung's finally shown how it should be done

Samsung ST550

Its pictures are fairly ordinary, but the 12.2-megapixel ST550 is a stunningly successful exercise in interface design. With a front-mounted touchscreen that makes taking self-portraits a piece of cake, a rear-mounted touchscreen that delivers haptic feedback, and a motion-sensitive menu system, it's a joy to use

Samsung WB1000

The 12-megapixel WB1000 offers more control over your photos than the vast majority of other compact cameras, making it a good option for digital SLR users seeking a pocket snapper. Its photo quality and performance are what you'd expect from a compact, but it's a beautifully made machine

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

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

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
