Samsung SH100

Those who like the concept of taking a better quality picture than your typical smartphone and sending it as an email attachment without seconds without having to connect the camera to a PC or insert the card into a reader in the usual way will find...

Resonsive touchscreen ; Wi-Fi caability ; Slick design ; Shar ictures

Narrow dynamic range ; Touchscreen needs to be imroved ; Over exoses ictures at balanced exosure values

With prices starting at just over £100, the Samsung SH100 has plenty to offer. It's suitable for most users but people going travelling will find it especially useful thanks to the Wi-Fi capability. If you need a pocket camera to take on holiday or...

Wi-Fi, Android & DLNA compatibility, budget price

Unresponsive touchscreen, reflective LCD in sunlight

The SH100 offers a lot for its low price point. Wi-Fi connectivity is great to have in today’s connected world. However the touchscreen controls lack the sensitivity they ought to and picture quality is reasonable rather than great. But for the money...

This has not been a positive review, but it’s hard for us to feel bad about it, since we're just going to turn around and recommend another Samsung.

The Samsung SH100 is a great bargain. You can certainly find more-camera-minded cameras than the SH100, but this ultracompact snapshooter distinguishes itself from the bargain-bin pack with its wireless sharing features, fun extras, and solid image and...

Great image quality and features for the price ; Very small and light ; Fun-to-use shooting modes ; Wireless sharing and remote-control features

Touchscreen can be unresponsive ; Has a toylike build ; Uses MicroSD cards for storage ; Digital stabilization only

With an array of wireless sharing and remote-control options, the Samsung SH100 has a generous feature set for a $200 camera. But it's mainly for young, casual shooters, due to its toylike build and lack of manual controls.

Good image quality ; Wi-Fi functionality ; Fun digital filter effects

LCD monitor is very poor ; Unresponsive touch-screen controls ; A bit slippery in the hand

Overall, the Samsung SH100 is a neat little point-and-shoot that offers some innovative Wi-Fi features and can more than stand its ground in the image quality stakes too, yet it's priced little higher than many less well equipped compacts. If picture...

Good value ; Bright, punchy pictures ; Wi-Fi feature lets you upload images directly to the Web

Low-light performance isn't especially good ; Average video quality

Deep down, the Samsung SH100 is little more than a simple point-and-shoot camera, but it's very appealing. It's small, takes a fairly good picture and comes with some excellent features for a price that won't break the bank. Online connectivity might...

Vast array of features including Wi-Fi and DLNA ; Well priced ; Remote Viewfinder function is fun ; Plenty of photo filters that are adjustable

Auto back-up feature only works in Windows ; No physical record button ; Noisy images at all ISO levels ; Digital image stabilisation

Fancy a compact camera with DLNA and Wi-Fi? The SH100 is for you, as long as image quality isn't high on your list of priorities. Samsung is the only manufacturer (in Australia) pushing connectivity on its cameras in this manner, and for this we...

For its target market the Samsung SH100 camera seems to tick all the boxes. It is a shame that the two main disappointments – responsiveness of the touchscreen and ISO performance – go to the very core of its function. Yet I don’t think these factors...
