Samsung ST65 Normal I write no recession for a product but because most of it is already said in this cam and the many positive reviews you just can not help but write one. Of course, is also possible that I caught a Monday model, but I think so rather less. In addition to a DSR this should the Cam for the pocket, the one time can always take, everyone knows that you have determined the DSR left times at home and already diving stuff on that one time would like to hold. For this purpose I had been a Canon PowerShot A470, old lumpy but quite nice pictures. The Samsung should now these "lumps" replace than pure trouser pockets Cam. Device has arrived for a quick delivery of Amazon on Saturday. Processing of Samsung can confidently classify as well at least for me, everything fits nothing creaks. The too short USB cable and charger were missing already discussed here. Samsung ST65 digital camera (only Micro-SD, 14.2 megapixels, 5x opt. Zoom, 6.9 cm (2.7 inch) display, image stabilized) silver So nothing new and now it came time to ST65 to the A470 test. Already the first test pictures in automatic mode did a slight hesitation on coming whether it is because here the camera described on Amazon. Once tried the automatic programs that you can say the least enter into the bin. Not one of them is zoom in position is only approximate to the quality of the x years old PowerShot to come. Washed-out colors out of focus over or underexposure, and more just not a reasonable picture. Of the automatically set ISO values you are here now not to talk. Who came up with something, well over 200 is the noise already so strong the images that you can delete confidently the higher. What on the display of the Cam looks good, appear on the PC screen as a pure Griesel Monster. But do not despair then only changed once in the program mode and the cam set manually. The results were already much better but still lay behind the working with only 7.1 MP PowerShot. On the positive side in the Samsung is the surface Intuitively, you need not read until long. But here too fine structures that lie at the edge of the area begin to streak, moving objects are there almost do not sharp to start with a. The whole then again tested under sunlight outside.
Here then grab though finally the automatic program and the quality of the images is noticeably up, but again outliers. Why be a divided treetop the focused part green and lively acts as the in the border area to me opens not. Program mode outdoors is not worth really quick snapshots are then not in it, because you can not store different modes. Why are so many people the Cam described as good? I can not understand, perhaps even had sunshine and no interior shots. Anyway my deal goes back as simply unusable.
But I should mention that the display was not described here. That's just fantastic, anti-reflective and matt simply unfamiliar even with sunlight from behind still legible and in this price class. If all cams.
++ Anti-reflective matte screen ++ Intuitive menu ++ Good workmanship (except for the battery and USB flap) ++ Very small and handy Have + Battery translucent adequate performance
And now, unfortunately, the negative points
- Too short USB cable - Automatic mode unusable in low light - Program mode no storable profiles - Picture quality unacceptable (except in sunshine and clear skies) - No Charger
I had already thought that the 14.1 MP Monster can not come up with top quality, but had hoped to send me to retire and slightly smaller my old lumpy PowerShot to have in your pocket, because the better pictures done anyway with the DSR become. But that was a false shot, the Samsung comes not nearly of the quality of the old 7.1 MP approach. Too bad. As you wonder where progress remains, clearly you can not expect much at this price. But the old PowerShot was in the same price range. I had expected the same quality in a smaller form. Only the noise of the Samsung makes 90% of the pictures simply unusable.
