Samsung NV40


$330.00 Released July, 2008

Product Shot 1 The Pros:Reasonably quiet camera when focusing and taking pictures. Good ISO range, works with some fairly low light and still gets good results. Has several shooting modes that make use for beginners much easier.

The Cons:Cover for the USB port is likely to snap off when you're putting the cord in. Big delay between the initial flash and the second one, making people think that the picture has been taken and they can move. Has lots of features that need exploring before you start shooting or it can be frustrating.

Like its lower-resolution sibling the NV30, the Samsung NV40 is a mid-range compact digital camera that offers a users their choice of point-and-shoot simplicity or more sophisticated image control than many of its competitors.

If you prefer total control, you can also set aperture and shutter speed using the manual mode. Dual image stabilization, face detection and a snapshot mode (designed to optimize focus and flash exposure for the average distance of a camera held at arm's length) help ensure your subject is in focus and properly exposed.
