The Samsung Digimax V4 packs a relatively large CCD in a relatively small package, allowing for high-resolution shots that are crystal clear. The camera can "remember" settings from various users, making it a great choice for family vacations where everyone wants to take some pictures.

Review:


I was hesitant with this camera. The indoor pictures aren't the best, but they'll do. During a recent trip to Arizona, I got the chance to appreciate this camera. But if you want a fast-shooting, panoramic kind of camera, you'd be better buying a camera from Sony, Nikon, or Canon.
