Pros:
Stylish looks. Filters and customization galore. |
 |
Cons:
Buttons suitable for toothpicks. Lacking in camera features, yet has unnecessary media playback. Even suped-up digital stabilization doesn't replace optical stabilization. |
|
| Conclusion: |
|
| The Samsung NV4's best feature is its array of filters and customization options, so you can use it as a simple point-and-shoot but still get creative results (assuming you're creative). It lacks optical image-stabilization, but its advanced form of digital stabilization isn't a complete write-off. Image quality in fair conditions was quite good, at least when it comes to portrait photography. We didn't really like the irksomely tiny buttons though, which along with the inner zoom lens revealed the camera's focus on thinness and compactness. Still, the filters and customization should save the day for point-and-shooters who enjoy taking pictures of friends and family with an artistic slant. |
