Review:
We like:
Manual exposure control; RGB intensity controls; relatively low price
We don't like:
Confusing menus; no aperture- or shutter-priority mode; exposure adjustments in 1/2-stop instead of 1/3-stop increments reduce degree of control
CNET.co.uk judgement:
The Samsung Digimax S800 has tonnes of controls for its price range, but confusing menus and poor image quality outweigh these advantages
