Lowlights:
- No folding Monitor
- No Slow Motion
- Complicated series images
-------
First of all:
-------
Coinciding with this camera I have tested the Nikon Coolpix L830 (220). As a layman, I would like to allow myself no judgment on the photo quality. Because I suspect that there's a lot of potential in the interplay between camera and photographer. Rather, the test should show whether the charge for the Nikon Coolpix L830 is justified.
-----------------------------
First the externals:
-----------------------------
---------
Collar:
---------
soft, velvety fabric, long enough not to hang by the neck while the camera additionally plugged into the bag that is worn over the shoulder.
------------------
Lens Cap:
------------------
bit fiddly when attaching, not as handy as the Nikon Coolpix L830.
-------------
Battery compartment:
-------------
comfortable, safe closure - better than the Nikon Coolpix L830.
---------
Other:
---------
Camera is very good in the (large) hand - better than the Nikon Coolpix L830.
Controls are positioned very intuitive.
The monitor can be, unfortunately - as with the Nikon Coolpix L830 - dim only slightly, for example, at night to look at pictures - so it will be permanently blinded, and it also consumes more power.
If the batteries / accumulators are at the end, it may happen that the camera is no longer capable to shut down: Until next battery change the lens remains extended.
One can - as with the Nikon Coolpix L830 - go directly to the playback function, without having to turn on the camera correctly; the lens cap can remain on it.
--------------------------
Current settings:
--------------------------
The WB110 delivers to (almost?) Everyone more or less useful explanatory texts setting that unfortunately pop up with 1 to 2 second delay, which can be switched off altogether. In addition, the WB110 will remember where you were most recently: one does not have to be every time to click through to this point.
In addition to the home time zone a travel time zone can also be set. So even with the Nikon Coolpix L830.
-------------------
Sound settings:
-------------------
Here spreads the Samsung WB110 with little effort much joy: keytones not nervous and partly you can select the tones and set total to control the volume.
---------------------
Focus area selection:
---------------------
Center AF; Multi-AF; (Sliding) Selection AF, ie you can set the focus for example on the upper left; AF control, ie the subject which is selected, is "pursued".
--------------
Focus selection:
--------------
Normal (AF, ie of at least 80 cm distance.); Macro (maximum of 80 cm apart); Auto Macro (from any distance); Super Macro (shots from less than 1 cm!); when shooting movies only Normal (AF) and macro.
----------

-------------
Normal, Fine, Super Fine.
---------------------------
Metering range:
---------------------------
Multi, Spot or Center.
----------------

----------------
Here hides the single or continuous shooting setting, as Motion Capture, and AEB.
------------------

Beauty Shot, guide frames, Night, Portrait, Children, Landscape, Close-up, Text (documents, notes), Sunset, Dawn, Backlight, beach & snow.
-------------------------------------------------- -
Panoramic shots up to 180 ° with no fixed image size:
-------------------------------------------------- -
The longer you swung, the larger the image, for example of 1280x720 to 3040x672.
---------------
Funny Things:
---------------
* Magic frame (eg subject is displayed in the newspaper).
* Split recordings: 2 or 3 horizontal or vertical images are combined into one image.
* Photo filters: Miniature (aka Toy Effect), Vignette, Cross Filter, Fisheye, Antique (with interfering particles), Classic (b / w), Retro.
* Video Filter: Vignetting, Fish-eye, Classic (b / w), Retro, Palette effects 1-4 with different color casts: one can shoot movies that look like actual example from the 1970s.
-----------
Photo Editor:
-----------
eg you can not only an image by 90 ° turn (as in the Nikon Coolpix L830), but also by 180 ° and flip horizontally and vertically.
-----------
Play:
-----------
When playing you can leave during the slide show to suit your mood run with different music. The aperture can be adjusted.
---------------------
Problem: Burst
---------------------
Continuous shooting can not be selected without further themselves, meaning they are grayed out. This is due to some other setting. Possibly must be set no anti-shake performance. Or the images must have a certain size. Or ... I've forgotten it. I want the camera, however, can use without manual. Series images are for me the standard and should not be hidden.
------
Conclusion:
------
Who has found the setting of continuous shooting function once and can do without a folding screen, slow motion / fast motion and stereo sound and full HD (Nikon Coolpix L830) is for a great price with a wonderful handy camera with superzoom and many funny things like Magic frame and Split recordings "rewarded".
