Samsung Digimax NV11

 

You get a sense that Samsung's Digimax NV11 is different just from looking at its black, sculpted body. And there's plenty to back up this impression once you get under the hood, starting with Samsung's innovative Smart Touch control system.

If you can live with the Samsung Digimax NV11's portability constraints, it's an excellent choice for an all-around camera that's fun to use and equally accommodating of beginners and advanced shutterbugs.

Samsung NV11 - digital camera review

 

With matte black finishes, prominent, blue-ringed lenses, and unusual touch sensor controls, Samsung's style-minded NV cameras are pretty hard to miss. Sitting at the top of the NV heap is the NV11, a 7.7-ounce, 10-megapixel camera that strikes just...

Good image quality; manual exposure controls.

Smart Touch interface takes some getting used to; sluggish when starting up.

The Samsung NV11 can produce some very nice-looking pictures, but its unique interface isn't for everyone.

This odd-looking camera is one of the finest compacts to make it out of Korea. With ten megapixels and an excellent lens, there's really very little to dislike

We like this camera a lot, and for a rugged day out it’s one of the most reliable snappers out there. We just wouldn’t shoot our best mate's wedding on it.

Samsung NV11

 

Very good image quality ; Low distortion, 5X optical zoom ; Full range of shooting modes including priority and manual modes ; Surprisingly good little flash ; Large monitor ; Unusual interface ; Well built

Setting apertures and shutter speeds too finicky using the Smart buttons ; Some noise as of 200 ISO ; Monitor difficult to see outdoors under sunshine, surface too reflective ; Auto white balance unreliable under artificial lighting, particularly when...

Innovative user interface puts the NV11 at the top of its game

A brilliant piece of technology that keeps a low price despite the use of manual controls.

Samsung Digital Camera NV11

 

Having recently reviewed the i70 that had a superb User Guide this came as a huge shock to have one of the worst printed user manuals I have seen. Shame really as the camera and it's abilities are superb should you ever get to know the NV11.

For those who say all small digital cameras are the same I can say they are certainly not. Touchscreen is just coming in to the range, this is not one of those, the mavority of others use a menuing system operated by a five position wheel not this...

Samsung Digimax NV11

 

On the whole I was pretty impressed with the 10 megapixel Samsung Digimax NV11. Picture quality was good and the sharpness of the photos was some way above average in most cases. The 5x optical zoom lens means you can get in the bit closer than normal....

Sharp photos - looks good - feels good it the hand - large LCD screen - after photo effects

Wide angle photos - shutter lag can be a problem from time to time

The test photos I took with the Samsung Digimax NV11 were noticeably sharper than I see from most other digital cameras. With manual exposure controls giving you the ability to set shutter speeds and aperture sizes this camera is worth a closer look if...

Samsung NV11

 

The NV11 has a protruding lens, but it's still quite compact and there's a nice hand grip, too. It has a solid metal finish and Samsung has obviously spent a bit of time trying to get the look and feel right. It's worked.
