The Samsung L210 was announced at CES on January 6, 2008. The L210 is a 10.1 megapixel point & shoot camera with a 3x optical zoom and a 2.5″ LCD screen that will automatically brighten or dim depending on the current lighting situation.
The L210 also offers Dual Image Stabilization, which combines Samsung’s Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) with Digital Image Stabilization (DIS). When selected, the two work simultaneously to curb shake-induced blur in your photos.
The L210 features face detection autofocus, a special self-portrait mode and auto red eye fix that allows users to set the camera so that it automatically detects and eliminates red-eye from photos as they are taken.

Where to Buy
First off, consider going to your local camera store (and I don’t necessarily mean Wolf Camera at the mall). By going to your local camera store, you’re supporting your community and you just might build a lasting relationship with people you can rely on when you need some help or answers. If you’re buying online, I recommend sticking with Amazon, B&H Photo or Adorama. These three vendors are reliable, trustworthy and generally have the best (legitimate) prices. Additionally, purchasing your camera through these links helps support this site.

Some believe that this image, which has been floating around the internet, is a shot of the foldout screen on the A300. It sure does look familiar. Take a look at the small tabs on the top and bottom of the LCD panel. Now compare those to the notches that you see above and below the A200’s LCD panel (below).
The NV30 also has the ability to record at VGA resolution (640×480) at a maximum frame rate of 30fps. Shooters can also take advantage of the NV30’s movie stabilizers and 3x optical zoom while recording video and with Samsung’s Successive Recording mode, can pause, and then resume filming without having to save the clips as individual files.
The S860 incorporates a Function Description feature. Designed to reduce the intimidation factor of the camera’s various modes, Function Description automatically provides a brief and easy to understand description of each setting when scrolling through the cameras’ menus, helping the end-user determine which setting is appropriate for their current shooting scenario. Additionally, with 11 scene modes to choose from, including Night, Portrait, Children, Landscape, Close-Up, Sunset, Dawn, Backlight, Fireworks, Beach & Snow, and Self Portrait.
The S860 also boasts a special effects “E” button, which gives you instant access to a host of creative controls, including options for resizing and rotating images, adjusting brightness, contrast and saturation levels, fixing red eye, and manipulating color such as saving captured images as B&W, Sepia, Red, Blue, Green, and Negative.
