i purchased this camera on this site nearly a year ago. since that time, i've taken it on two major vacations (alaska and paris) and was dissappointed with the results. my friend and travel companion purchased disposable cameras and took better pictures than i did. a month ago, i went to montana on vacation and took pictures with the evoca. each one turned out with a bright halo like ring of light surrounding the boarder of the photo.....50% of the pictures were completely indistinguishable.

i tested it again in las vegas with the same halo like result. so much for the high price tag and fancy lens....

One of the best features about this camera is that it offers many different features and settings for different conditions and purposes. Examples: Conditions - weather, sunny versus cloudy, dark, night, and on and on. Purposes - Landscape shots? Continuous shots for your kid playing soccer? And more.

One must be careful to set the control dial on a appropriate setting otherwise you may get strange results like Mr. Barber did - I am pretty sure that's what he did, not reading the instructions and trying different things without paying attention. (Sorry if I am jumping the gun, Mr. Barber ^_^) For instance, red-eye effect does not work under certain special settings. Blurry images like Mr. Barber had is a classic example of taking normal shots on landscape setting. (I often see people make this mistake when traveling, going back and forth between simple portrait shots and landscape shots)

This is a great camera, which combines the modern technology of precise motor mechanism and digital elements with one of the most highly regarded lenses in the industry for its quality and history. Photo quality of this Samsung camera is immaculately fine and sharp, filled with pleasing colors to viewers' eyes. The greater thing is that its price is very competitive when compared to its similarly equipped cameras from other brands.

I've had this camera for six months, and it's been nothing less than perfect! Terrific zoom length, very compact size, and quality features, such as the Schneider Optics lens.

I've yet to have had one problem, and have shot many rolls of film. Another reviewer (Mr. Barber), must have received a defective product. A 1-star review of this camera just doesn't make sense, and to say that a disposable took better photos, is patently absurd!

Samsung includes a 3-year extended warranty with this model. Buy this camera without hesitation!

I purchased this camera a few months ago to replace my favorite camera when it was unfortunately broken. Since I loved that camera, the next camera had a lot to live up to.

I have been very pleased with this camera. It has a great zoom and the picture quality is just as great.

As said previously, you must make sure to have the camera on the right setting to avoid blurry pictures. It actually has a setting you can turn on so that the camera will beep if the settings aren't appropriate for the pictures! I don't think you could ask for anything better!

I would definitely recommend this camera to anyone who is looking for one like it.
