Samsung DualView TL205 review

 

Samsung's DualView cameras remain the best choice for people who shoot a lot of self-portraits. Not necessarily because they take great photos, but because their secondary front LCD makes it very easy to see just what you're shooting--stills or...

The Samsung DualView TL205 has a second LCD up front and an angled bottom to make self-portraits a snap.

The Samsung DualView TL205 feels cheaply made and produces mediocre low-light photos.

The Samsung DualView TL205's front LCD and low price make it a decent choice for self-portrait-loving photographers on a budget.

A perfect camera for parties and get togethers!

 

It's a great product by Samsung and perfect for anybody who likes to take massive amount of picture at parties. Great when you want to take a picture with another person and their is no one else to take it for you. I personally love the design and the...

have to charge battery through camera (but you could buy a charger that goes straight to the batter), feels a tad light

Great little camera!

 

For [$] this was a terrific deal! 12 MP gives great picture quality, and overall I\'m very pleased with this camera. The screen on the front is nice if you want to take a picture of yourself by holding the camera in front of you.

Samsung PL100 Digital Camera

 

Last month I received my first digital camera, it was a Samsung PL100 and I have to say that I liked a lot. First of all, it's very simple to manage since I had no camera experience before and I was able to manipulate it easily. It's also very light...

Samsung PL100 camera is great looking, and besides some little details, it’s pretty good for giving away or making gifts to non professional picture lovers like me.
