Samsung Digimax S800 Digital camera user reviews

"We bought this as a second camera. We also have the S500 and really like it. The price is excellent. It's easy to use. Only problems I have with it are that it takes a long time to save pictures with flash. So, you'll miss the next great shot. And, video is recorded as MPEG4. When I try to upload to my computer, it doesn't read it because it uses .avi. Granted, I have not used the CD-Rom that came with the camera. But, with the S500 I could just put the card in the card reader and upload my videos. I will say I do enjoy taking short clips with the camera so I don't have to lug out the big recorder. "

"This little Samsung Camera snaps the most precise and perfect hpotos, shows all detail, from vivid colors to the dust on a shelf. Lots of my friends are very jealous that I have this product that takes better pictures than their Digital SLR Cameras. "

"What's up everyone, it's your boy, Emko. This camera is a great value, 8.1MP around $100, is outstanding. The videos it takes are fantastic, easily watched on your PC or TV, and you can even take pictures or video while you watch what you're doing on the TV! Take the time to read the manual, you can make adjustments (like taking close-ups, adjusting the ISO, etc.) that will make all the difference in the world and would negate most of the problems people have with this camera. A little bit of reading and you can take pictures like the pros. Don't take my word for it, I'm just Emko, try it for yourself. "

"I purchased this camera in August of 2007. This is the second Digimax camera that I have owned. I am truly happy with my purchase. I definitely agree with some of the other reviews that it is necessary to have rechargeable batteries, but otherwise the camera works good, and also takes pretty good videos.

One drawback that I have found with the camera is the lag time it takes to snap the pictures. Sometimes when taking pics of impatient kids, they move around before the flash, and then it distorts the pic. Other than that, I don't have any complaints, and I would definitely recommend this camera for purchase. "
