Samsung NV10
As far as point and shoots are concerned, Asian companies such as Sony and Nikon seem to always take the spotlight. But rising from the depths of digital camera technology is another player that is slowly gaining more ground in the industry: Samsung. Samsung was once known for their house appliances and then later on their mobile technology. Having developed a 10 mega pixel mobile phone camera, it was only a matter of time before they started concentrating once again on the digital camera market; thus, the release of the Samsung NV10.
BLACK IS BEAUTIFUL
Take one look at the Samsung NV10 and your initial reaction will not be just as you would expect when looking at any other digital camera. The first thing you will notice is the quality of the material that is draped in a rich coating of black. The Samsung NV10 is a very manly device but it will appeal to women as well. It’s the sexy black that brings about a level of sophistication and class. The Samsung NV10 not only gives off the impression that it is a solid device; it is a very solid device. The metals chosen for the Samsung NV10 gives it a weighty feeling in hand but it’s light enough to store and whip out of a bag.
UNIQUE
One of the best features of the Samsung NV10 is the way the controls are laid out and the way they are used. The buttons are more or less the same as any other digital camera. However, on the Samsung NV10, they are laid out in a reverse “L” fashion and the other unique feature is that you don’t need to add too much pressure to use the buttons. They are actually touch-sensitive and the slightest touch will allow you to activate the feature of the button you are pressing. The Samsung NV10 touch-sensitive feature allows one to use its features in the easiest way possible and without too much work. The other great advantage to this is that you won’t have to worry about over using the buttons even if you use them a lot over time. In contrast, typical buttons will tend to feel softer over a long time and their tactile feedback will become less than reliable.
POWER
Packed with a 10.1 mega pixel CCD sensor, the Samsung NV10 is not a point and shoot that should be underestimated. In fact, the Samsung NV10 employs a CCD that is not normally used in typical point and shoots. With a 3x optical and 5x digital zoom, that brings the total to 15x zoom and it produces crisp quality photographs no matter which zoom you are using. Of course, for the best detail, it is best to use the optical camera zoom. The Samsung NV10 has a 2.5-inch LCD monitor which is surprising because the new standard seems to be 3.0-inches. And equipped with a Schneider-Kreuznach lens, you can be assured of the best quality pictures.
Are you tired of the brand of digital camera that you usually purchase? For a totally different user experience, try out the Samsung NV10. It’s inexpensive, innovative and photography will never be quite the same with the kind of technology that Samsung is introducing with the Samsung NV10.
































Nice review, it seems like this is a good camera for photo blogging.
