Comments about Samsung S860 Digital Camera (Black):
The only thing I don't like about it is the long lag time between pressing the button to take the picture and the time it actually takes the picture. I don't think it does this normally though. It has been very dependable. I think that's what happens when using it under low battery.

Comments about Samsung S860 Digital Camera (Black):
Definately not what I expected. If your subject is moving don't even bother taking the picture. ISO only 1000 if your subject was moving the pics came out blurry. Not good in low light situations either. Returned 2 that I purchased. [...] I can't even say I would buy this camera for a child as a starter camera.

I love this camera! I tried to find a camera with a pretty high mps under $120.00. I got this camera and a 1g sd mem. card, for [$]. For a camera at this price this can't be beat..

Comments about Samsung S860 Digital Camera (Black):
Compact size is a big plus along with the larger than average LCD Screes and it is nearly foolproof for shooting.

A friend of mine had this camera, and lent it to me while my SLR was being fixed. The thing nearly broke on me several times. Go figure, though. Every Samsung product I have ever owned did not work well and broke very easily.
