General Comments

Look, it's 2008 already, and I bought my Samsung Digimax 420 in 2004. In these 4 years it has given our family great joy -- no kidding -- in that it takes great pics, GREAT movies with sound, and is super easy to handle, both during photography and juggling around in your pockets/luggage. It has fallen -- hard -- several times, and is none the worse for wear. It feels good, looks good, and quality is excellent. It's unobtrusive during filming time.
For me, it has only two drawbacks:
1) as above person stated, use chargeable batteries, and you'll be fine -- they last forever.
2) I take many photos in "silent" spots, esp. churches, so I dread the "welcome ping" that plays when I turn it on, but I have learned to press my thumb firmly on the soundhole and it helps.
If you see this camera on sale (as used of course, as it's out of production), don't hesitate! I'm proud of mine. Am just worried where I'm going to get another one IF this one should ever decide to retire :-)
