'Samsung's proprietary ASR image stabilization system helps to reduce camera shake and image blur during longer exposures and in situations where holding the camera steady is impossible.'
'In good light, the Samsung L73 performed as expected for a 7Mp compact,'
'The lack of an optical viewfinder, while not unusual, is a shame'
'The Digimax i5 is a 5 megapixel camera with a 3x optical zoom and 5x digital zoom.'
'features on the i5 include limited manual controls (full aperture, limited shutter speed, and custom white balance), a VGA (30 fps) movie mode, numerous scene modes, and support for the USB 2.0 High Speed standard'
'The Samsung's electronics don't do justice to its high resolution either, scattering jagged edges, colour casts and exposure problems through your images.'
'Certain outdoors shots were accompanied with massive bars of blue or purple, millimetres in width.'
'Though it uses a lens made by Schneider Optics, which makes some of the world's best magnifying loupes and enlarger lenses, the V700's pictures lack uniform sharpness and are plagued by distracting light artifacts such as fringing and blooming, as well as geometric distortion, which makes straight lines look curved despite its relatively narrow angle of view.'
'This is a huge flaw—we took five controlled test shots in auto mode with the second unit, and all five had radically different exposures; one image was properly exposed, but the other four became progressively darker.'
