'The WB2000 sits just below the bigger, more complex and more expensive EX1 / TL500 model in Samsung's now extensive range of compacts, sharing many of its bigger brother's features and design cues, while increasing the zoom range and overall speed.'
'The ability to shoot in raw as well as JPEG is welcome, and makes the WB2000 handy for SLR-toting photographers who might not want to lug their full kit around. '
'But the (second) most eye catching feature of the WB2000’s top plate is two “Full and Empty” fuel gauge-type dials set into it; one showing remaining battery power, the other capacity of whichever optional SD or SDHC card has been inserted into the compartment shared with the supplied rechargeable battery at its base. '
'The most irritating part of the camera's design is the loose dial next to the right thumb-rest.'
'Furthermore, having to rotate the lens ring in order to change the exposure settings means that the camera can't always be held steady — with the conventional controls, your left hand is always holding the camera steady as you change settings. '
'decent compact system camera'
'The Samsung NX100 digital camera has a 14.6-megapixel resolution and combines professional image quality with some features that make the camera really easy to use without actually being a professional. '
'Samsung's made a number of minor tweaks to the software allowing a greater degree of customisation, while the camera and two new kit lenses debut the company's new i-Function feature.'
'The camera's interior and low-light performance is more disappointing.'
'the front screen can be difficult to see in bright sunlight due to the bright chrome effect on the front of the camera (the other colours may be better).'
