Samsung L100 8.1MP Digital Camera user reviews

"I bought Samsung L100 8.1MP Digital Camera for my brother-in-law because he liked the one I bought myself. excellent pictures simple features, excellent battery life.

Nice and small with a big screen. I also like the twist control and the ease of using the macro, flash and self timer. Much easier than the multiple layers of touch screen on my daughter's Sony that cost 4 times as much.

"I don't know a whole lot about cameras, but so far so good. It was definately an upgrade from my old camera. Has a bigger LCD screen. And it is much sleeker. One thing that is different, which I haven't decided if it is good or bad yet, is that it doesn't take double A batteries. SO when the battery dies I have to plug the camera in for a couple of hours instead of just switching batteries.
I also like the zoom option in video recording. And the quality of photos is good enough for me. Like I said I am not a camera know it all and my husband does have a Cannon Rebel XTI that we use for special pics. But Samsung L100 8.1MP Digital Camera is great for everything else! "

"I bought Samsung L100 8.1MP Digital Camera
for my niece. She needed something small, easy to use and light to carry around. this was the perfect camera. She loves it and now I am the greatest aunt in the world! "

"My Canon PowerShot S50 developed a twitchy on and off syndrome and finally stopped working altogether while on vacation in Germany so I looked at what I could get for about 150 Euros and ended up picking the Samsung L100 with 2 GB RAM. It had image stabilization, more megapixels (8.1) and a percieved quality about it that attracted me, although I didn't know that I could have gotten it for much less here. I am embarrassed to admit that I had to go back to the store for them to show me how to use the self timer, because the quick start manual didn't show how and I couldn't figure it out myself. All I had to do was to press the multi control button right side repeatedly until the timer icon comes up and by pressing the right side of that button repeatedly you select the 2 or 10 second option. Then postion the camera and hit the trigger button and it works fine, with little flashes of light telling you when to get ready by increasing in frequency until it shoots a picture. It has a fairly advanced red eye protection system that works well. I am happy I bought it because the other options available were for more money or for less features at that price. The pictures Samsung L100 8.1MP Digital Camera takes are very nice."
