Manufacturer's Description
With its super-high 8.1 megapixel resolution and a 30x total zoom (3x optical, 5x digital), the Digimax L80 guarantees superb, detailed shots every time. A large 2.5" high-res LCD makes image framing and reviewing a real pleasure, and the special wide-view technology means that images on the screen can be viewed from extreme angles - up to 180 degrees - allowing you to share your shots with a group easily.

With high sensitivity to ISO 800 this high-performance model takes great pictures in low light without the usual image blurring. And the motion capture mode lets you take a rapid burst of up to 30 shots - perfect for capturing a sequence or fast moving objects.This model is not just a digital camera! The MPEG4 movie mode with sound, with its successive recording function and movie stabiliser delivers a camcorder-like experience - all in a handy digital compact.

Customer Reviews

Had to send it back3
Although the camera looks really good and it has every feature you could ever possibly need, I found that the exposure settings on the 'auto' point and shoot mode were far too bright, and any lighting in the shots bleached the image. Even though the exposure can be controlled by reducing the ISO value, after about a month of owning the camera, the finish on the zoom button started to wear away (I hadn't even used the zoom button that much) and you could see lines across the screen when viewing the pictures on the LCD screen, which also transferred to the pictures the computer. So I decided to send the camera back and I'm not sure whether to get the same one, or even a samsung, again. Lots of features, but not sure whether to go through all that again - hence the 3 stars.
