Can't believe Samsung would put out such garbage.

 

I picked this up a couple of years ago at my local electronics store because I wanted a compact point & shoot for everyday use. I initially gravitated to this camera because of the small size, wide display screen, 10.2 megapixel photos it promised...

You get what you pay for

 

We purchased the Samsung L200 nearly two years ago, before the birth of our first child. Our primary concern was affordability, which is one of the L200's pros. Another pro is the the battery life has held up very well. I haven't needed to charge it...

Affordable with long battery life

Very poor focus quality unless used with flash

Samsung L200 camera

 

I needed a camera to take with me on a holiday to the Swiss Alps. I didn't want anything bulky or heavy. I dislike having to carry anything that weighs a lot, particularly when I am travelling, because I find heavy items become burdensome and extremely...

Because of its size, it meant that I could fit the L200 camera into my handbag and not have to hang it over my shoulder. I also felt that now I could happily go on my holiday with a camera that would be easy for me to use.

Great quality but gliches

 

Great quality but gliches

I haven't seen anyone else write about this problem so I think it's just my specific camera that has the problem. The memory is internal (it doesn't use a memory card) and there are always several pictures that get corrupted and need to be deleted. ...

Worst camera ever owned.

 

Worst camera. Freezes on blurry pictures. Can't turn off camera, can't delete the blurry pictures. Takes too long to take pictures. Takes lots of blurry pictures. Will never buy Samsung again!
