    Good Points: Good manual features


    Bad Points: Bad disortion at ISO>400
    Slow in my opinion.


    General comments: Are using the wrong batteries. These cameras chew alkaline batteries as it is not what they were designed for. Buy Lithium Ion batteries and you should easily see 10 hours of constant use out of each pair. If you do then I well recommend the Samsung Digimax S1050 camera.

    My Samsung Digimax S1050 takes very good photographs without having to input too much information. It is excellent value for money - BUT am still trying to work out how to use some of its functions as the accompanying booklet difficult to understand (too liitle information in too many languages).

    The Samsung Digimax S1050is a good all round camera but you must use NiMh or Hybrio atteries rated at 2000mh and more.

    I love this Digimax S1050. It is easy to use, takes great photos, and it had a great price tag.

    In my opinion it is an easy to use all round camera that most people would love to have, it takes quality pictures without having to have had months of training. I would recommend this product to anyone.

    Please take note that batteries for digital cameras should be of a higher load as they do take a bit of power and you should be looking at duracell ultra m3's or rechargeable batteries specifically for digital cameras. Then the performance is what you should expect and want.

    I am very disappointed with the Samsung Digimax S1050, basic functions/facilities of anti blurr and battery life let this camera down. The other functions are pointless if it doesn't take a sharp picture or if the camera switches off part way through your event!

    I am going to get my money back.

    Samsung S1050 Review - Picture quality is excellent. Easy to use. Large monitor which is very handy when you want to take a good look at the photo after you have taken it. Battery life is terrible. However, if you purchase rechargeable batteries then you should be ok, as you do not have to keep buying new ones saving you some money. Have to make sure camera is still when taking pictures as the slightest movement can make the picture blurry even with the anti blurr function on. So may not be sui ...

    Very Good. The Automatic Image Detection option on the Samsung Digimax S1050 is so good which can be used when back light is more.
    Its value for money.

    The Samsung Digimax S1050 was the 1st digital camera I bought and I think its great ,great price £89.99 Argos. Although if I knew about the battery life i would have bought a rechargeable one.

    I will suggest to buy the Samsung Digimax S1050 camera only if you find a workaround for the battery problem.

    The Samsung Digimax S1050 looks great and is very easy to use. The battery life annoys me as this is not something I was expecting but this is the first digital camera I have owned so this might be normal. I can't complain too much as it was reduced from £199.99 to £89.99 (Good old Argos where would I be without you). So yes, very good camera.

    I have used many digital cameras, from Sony, Fuji, Panasonic & Kodak. This is by far the best, compact, high spec I have used so far.............

    I bought this camera recently and having found the instructions in the box to be pretty rubbish i checked out the samsung website and found where to download the full user guide for this camera.

    I bought this camera for general picture taking with my family not for professional use and i have found it to be great once i learnt all the functions!! Also if you are thinking of buying it, Argos is currently selling in pink and silver for £89.99 - this is where i bought from as i havent foun ...

    The battery life was 2 hours. This is not good. I bought a S1050. I was trying out all the functions and was kinda surprised that the brand new Duracell batteries ran out after 2 hours. If this is the case, gee. I am going to try another set of batteries, but the batteries I used were wrapped brand new. I was only taking practice shots. Not more than 20.
