Summary: awesome camera....(for the beginner photographer)
Review: hmmm...i was buying those diposable cameras for the longest time.
i hated spending all that money on a camera, wasting gas, developing the film and finally end up with pictures that got blurred, blacked out or just something wrong that if i had seen before, i woulnt have developed it to begin with...so i went on a mission to find a digital camera and was into something cheap,not knowing what to expect. i found this at wal-mart...that is an awesome store...it was the cheapest ONE THERE!! i was excited right when i opened the box. it came with batteries, so i put them in and at first it didnt work..then i found out the batteries were in wrong and that i had to turn it on..heh heh oh well ive had the camera for close to a year now and im glad this was my first digital..i love it to death..i just find myself looking for something slimmer..
cause even though they say you can fit it in a pocket. heh YEAH maybe a purse or a jncos pocket...
but overall this is an AWESOME camera, worth more than its value.
i would recommend this to everyone who loves, just taking pictures of friends and family and arent too seriously into photography...
if youre looking for something simple, cheap,easy menus, and worth keeping ...BUY THIS CAMERA...NOW!!! ESPECIALLY if its your first one... trust me...it wont dissapoint!!
:)

Summary: Good begginer camera
Review: I am a photographer and this was my first camera. Its verry small and compact and great for a first camera. I sugjest buying a memory chip and rechargable bateries though. Besides that its great for begginers!

Summary: Good compact camera, low price
Review: I bought this camera after owning a Digimax 130 for almost 2 years. My shots on that camera were limited to 640X480 because the higher resolution shots were blocky and the colour came out all wrong. With the Digimax 201, I was REALLY impressed by the quality of the shots. I take shots at 1024X960 at with the "fine" setting. This is one setting below "Super Fine" but is just right for me. Every review I've read seems to mention the high battery consumption of the camera. I'm using GP PowerBank NiMH 1800 batteries and they're fine. I dont have any problems, even with using the LCD all the time. The camera is compact, lightweight, though does have a slight weak feeling to it. The menus are very easy to understand and use, a lot easier than my older Digimax 130. Shots taken in the dark are suprisingly great as well.
The fact that it does'nt record audio on the video is not a factor to me, as that is just a novelty. If you want to record movies, go buy a camcorder. Also, regarding the picture quality, I've used other 2.1 megapixel cameras by Canon, Fuji and Sony and the quality of the Samsung shots are awfully close to the others....In fact, I can't tell the difference on my 0.27dpi LG 17" Monitor...

Overall
The bad
1) No lens cover
2) Flash takes 10 secs to be fully charged for the next shot
3) Date imprint font on the pictures is a bit corny and big, but I just disable it.
4) TV output would be nice (my old Digimax 130 had that)

The good
1) Compact and lightweight
2) Cheap
3) Excellent quality pictures
4) Attractive
5) Variable flash settings for different light conditions
6) Nice pouch

Summary: Wonderful camera, especially for the price.
Review: I got this camera after I graduated middle school. [For the price] I was expecting it to take pretty low-quality pictures. Fortunatly it takes excellent, very sharp pictures. It's easy to learn how to operate it, especially if you have experience with electronics. It does tend to eat up batteries, although I believe it shuts itself down if you leave it on without doing anything with it. The size is also pretty remarkable. It's small and compact and easy to take anywhere. My only complaint is it automatically puts the date (in big yellow print) on the pictures you take. This can easily be fixed, however, by changing your settings.

Summary: Good camera for the price
Review: I got this camera for about $110 a month ago, and it's been a pretty good camera (probably one of the best for its price). It's a standard 2.0 megapixel good for taking everyday photos and such. It's also a pretty small camera so you can take it wherever. There are three focus modes: one for up-close pictures (so they won't be blurry), one for portrait pictures, and one for landscape. I've been using rechargeable batteries and the camera doesn't eat them up as fast as I would expect. The LCD screen is about 1.6" across, and it's sharp and clear. The only complaints I have is that there is no lens cover, and you have to hold the camera in place for a second or so after taking the picture or else it will come out blurry. Overall, the Samsung Digimax 201 is a simple, easy-to-use camera.

Summary: Great Camera
Review: I just received this camera for an early Christmas present, and love it. It takes wonderful pictures, and is very easy to use. I would recommend this camera to anyone starting out with digital cameras. It is also very easy to download them to your computer, that is a big plus for a lot of people. Being a smaller camera is helpful to, and I love the fact it is so easy to review your pictures or mini clips on the camera itself before downloading it to your pc.

Summary: Good for the price...
Review: I needed a camera with higher resolution that wasn't too expensive. I searched a lot. Chose this because it was the best price for the resolution. I certainly wasn't disappointed. True, the zoom is only 2x. However everything else was great. Took some nice wedding pics. The short..if your pocket is deep, get something with more zoom and better resolution. If not, then this is a good buy for the price and features.

Summary: Good Camera. Heed these warnings.
Review: I purchased this camera 2 days ago. The small size of this camera was the primary selling point for me as I wanted a portable camera to carry around with me anywhere I go. Be warned: When using the SD optional memory slot, the internal memory cannot be used at the same time hence pictures/movies taken before you inserted the SD memory card will not appear or be accessible. I recommend using rechargable NiMH 1800mAH - 2000mAH. It is July 9th and I have decided to return the camera to buy the Digimax 360 3.2MP for the following reasons (1) burst mode 2fps, (2) lens cover, (3) boasts the same compact size, (4) optical zoom 3x, (5) audio for movie mode. If you are considering this camera, first consider if you require any of the above.

Summary: samsung camera
Review: I'm not a camera expert but this is a very nice camera. Small and very very easy to use. Picture quality is just WOW. The price for it was WOW too. A great camera for a good price. However,I recommend buying rechargeable batteries. It'll be worth it in the long run. Overall I would highly recommend this product.
