Samsung ST100 Review

 

Samsung's ST100 is a great ultra-compact with various user-friendly options as well as good image quality and several unique features. The Dual View functionality is a great feature, and worth the investment. Read more in our Full Conclusion.

Well built and stylish body ; Produces pleasing 14-megapixel photos ; Acceptable noise levels up to ISO 800 ; Cool Motion Recognition options in record and playback modes ; Awesome 3.5-inch touchscreen LCD ; Larger Dual View screen is much easier to...

Touchscreen only responds to the flesh of your finger tips; so, those with long nails might have a more difficult time operating the camera ; Lens starts at 35mm (equivalent), which might cause some headaches when framing indoors ; Uses microSD/SDHC...

Samsung ST100 Review

 

The Samsung ST100 is a 14 megapixel point and shoot camera with a unique twist - it has a 1.8 inch LCD screen on the front which makes it easier to take self-portrait pictures. In addition to this innovative feature, the Dual View ST100 offers a 3.5...

An internet search at the time of writing found the Samsung ST100 still selling for an average £295 online which feels high for a snapshot camera, considering just £50 more could snag you an entry level DSLR these days. And yes, in fairness that's a...

Samsung ST100

 

Samsung was the first, and thus far is the only, digital camera manufacturer to introduce a LCD screen at the front as well as the back. Following on from last year's ST500, which prompted that “why hasn't anyone else thought of this before?” reaction,...

Quick and responsive operation and touch screen, high headline resolution at 14.2MP, small, portable and user friendly, dual screens occasionally useful, internally folded optical zoom offers 35-175mm reach

Lack of grip results in camera shake, priced at a premium for its class, image quality variable

This is an auto everything camera, but priced dangerously close to the sort of £300 models on which we’d expect to find enthusiast-level photographic control.

Samsung ST100 Digital Camera

 

The Samsung ST100 Digital Camera is small enough to fit into almost any pocket but it also has one of the largest TFT screens around. It is totally touchscreen in operation so those who have been brought up on touch will certainly enjoy using this camera.

I found the Samsung ST100 at a best price of £224.67 from the first link below

Samsung ST100 review

 

The Samsung ST100, with screens on both the front and the rear of the camera, is put to the test by ePHOTOzine member Adrian Wilson.

Front screen for self portraits; Huge array of on-board effects; Large intuitive screen; Can change shooting mode by moving the camera – really fast; Decent noise levels up to ISO800

Tracking Autofocus is very slow to lock on to a subject

The ST100 is very easy to use ,small and compact it easily fits into your pocket or bag.Has lots of interesting features,the front screen that can show animations to get childrens attention when taking a picture of them,it is also good that the subect...

The only bad thing is the battery life,but this is to be expected with a small compact camera.The best thing to do is to purchase a couple of extra bateries plus a universal charger.Shows marks on camera body but these can easily be wiped off.

Samsung ST100

 

Picture quality is brilliant. Very easy to use. Not a bulky camera.

Doesn't come with a memory card. Took me awhile to figure out how to turn the screen lock off. If you are taking a normal close range picture, u have to step back quite a bit to fit the subject in.
