With 10.2 MP and a powerful optical zoom, it's easy to capture every detail. And you won't have to worry about flawed photos. It comes with a slew of tools to beautify those not-so-perfect shots. The SAMSUNG Perfect Portrait System includes beauty shot that automatically retouches facial imperfections and the Smart Auto feature. It automatically selects the scene mode ideal for the environment you're shooting in. Capture all of your special moments with a camera that helps you create stunning photos. Samsung's perfect portrait system includes beauty shot, face detection, self-portrait, smile shot, blink detection, and red-eye fix - everything you need to create beautiful photos effortlessly. For example, beauty shot automatically retouches imperfections on your subject's face. And taking self-shots are easy with the self-portrait feature. The camera lets you know if the face is detected in the center of the image so you get the whole picture. With a 5x optical zoom, you'll get up close and personal with every subject. Plus, a slim, stylish design makes the mounted inner zoom lens easier to use and carry. A special coating on both sides of the lenses prevents false color and distortion while delivering outstanding picture quality. Take the best photos possible, with the Smart Auto feature. It automatically selects one of 11 scene modes that best suit the environment you're shooting in. For example, it automatically sets the camera to landscape scene mode if you're taking an image of a mountain range, and then switches gears and automatically selects the portrait scene mode if you proceed to take an image of an individual.

Samsung SL420 10MP Digital Camera user reviews

"Pictures and videos have amazing quality. Takes pictures fast and ready to shoot again. The AUTO balance is almost always pirfect. One of the greatest features - can zoom during shooting the video (most of the cameras can't do it).
BUT I was really disappointed when I ran out of memory very quick, because the video was very heavy on megabites - for 2 Gigs it could only record 12 min of video. The pics were ok - the same 3 Megs. So this camera would be perfect for someone who wants to use video just occasionaly and not a lot. Or get 8 or 16 Gig Memory card with it, it would give you about 1-2 hours of video. "

"I have really enjoyed this camera for the couple months I have had it. We upgraded from another Samsung camera we have had for about 5 years and loved. I chose this one because I wanted the 5x zoom and we won't be blowing our pictures up, so I didn't need the 12mp. It takes beautiful shots, nice and clear with great color. It also takes suprisingly good video for what it is. You'll need a decent sized SD card for the video, though!

The smart mode is good, but sometimes takes a really long time to take the picture. I have missed a couple of awesome shots of my son (he's 2) because of how long it took to snap the pic. I use the auto or P mode most often now to avoid some of that.

Overall, I highly recommend this little camera. It's been a vast improvement over our old one and we will hopefully have it for a long time! "

"Love this little camera. Takes clear pics and pretty good video. Many options within the camera to adjust your pics (color saturation, different exposure settings, face retouching & etc) For the price, you can't go wrong. "
