Not just great looking, performs well too!!5
Just bought this NV10 to replace my existing Sony DSC-P200 Cybershot. The quality of the pictures are superb, especially when trying to take pictures of moving children, which caused my Sony to blur all the time. The Samsung takes it all in its stride and the results are fantastic. Simply switch on and shoot, no messing to take a great picture. The only small criticism is the location of the flash, make sure you don't put your finger on top of it when taking a picture; other than that, highly recommended camera.

Great5
THe camera in itself is fantastic. the quality of the item is fantastic - far better than sony who seem to have a quality control issue recently. I love the smart touch display - it takes some getting used to but once you are familiar with it - it is great. It also looks great - one of the best looking cameras out I think. I do however have one gripe and that is that it has no memory card or case. It has a small built in memory but no substantial memory card. I can live with that but the fact that it has no case is a real downer. Especially on a camera this expensive. I am having to carry ine around in the bubblewrap pouch that it came in untill I can get a case for it.

High performance for low price5
Having played with this beauty since it arrived (thanks to a stunningly good deal from Amazon) over Christmas, all I can do is recommend this whole heatedly.

For the interested out there, here are a couple of small niggles:

The matrix buttons for the menus on the rear of the camera work very well, although they do take some getting used to. However they are slightly counter-intuitive in that to flick from one control catergory to another you can't just flick from one to the next, you have either to press "back" from where you are and then choose your next sub-menu, or deselect your current category. Given that the whole point of this camera's contols is the matrix buttons, this does not make any sense. Generally the controls themselves are not that friendly or intuitive, and I still haven't been able to view video clips on the camera itself - only on PC once transferred!

The screen menu display is monochrome. Not really important, but strange and slightly distracting.

Each control beeps annoyingly. You can disable the beep, but once you turn the camera off then on again, the beep is back!

The English used on the menus is that charming Koreanese - "Not Support", "Connecting Computer" etc.

If you can cope with these points, you should snap this one up.
