Hello. I welcome you to my Samsung PL70 camera review page. Despite the fact that I have been using a DSLR camera (review) for about a year and a half, I can't help but note the advantages I got from this digital camera.So, I've already told you about my love for this technique, so I'll start with the fact that the device was purchased in early 2010. It cost 12,000 rubles.

Now, with the growing popularity of SLR cameras, its price has fallen, as with other models, to 4,000 rubles.Characteristics of the camera: the body is made of aluminum and plastic, CCD-type matrix with a resolution of 12.4 megapixels, of which 12.2 working. Lens aperture - f/3,5-f/5,5, focal length - 35-175 mm, five-fold zoom, which is a good indicator. However, it is worth remembering that as the zoom increases, the quality of photos decreases.

There is a built-in flash and the function of shooting video in AVI format.

Unlike the author denispspu, I want to note the following features of the camera:The stabilizer works perfectly, providing clear pictures without blurring.With the right settings soapy photos are absent. Probably used slow flash sync in "Program" mode, where it is recommended to use a tripod.As for the V-shaped buildings, it is due to the wide angle of view, which can be slightly corrected with the zoom.I agree with you about the "Night" mode, but this does not mean that you can not shoot at night in "Program" mode with the right settings.In dual stabilization mode ISO varies depending on the lighting, not just 400.I agree with you about ISO 3200, although I have never used this setting myself.Focus lapses I can Sound is muted when zooming, but it's not critical. The 20 minute shooting limit is almost never used.Macro shooting is done very well, sharpness and contrast depend on the lighting and then the camera settings.In Smart Auto mode, the flash fires correctly only depending on the light level, although shooting in this mode can be noisy due to the inflated ISO. Scenes in Program mode with its own settings are heaven and earth.

Great camera for the price! Lots of functions for every taste! For beginners there is a detailed description of the functions. The photos are sharp. The device automatically detects background and light. Here are some of the features:face detection;image stabilization;sound recording;face, smile and eye blink detection;retouching;minimizing camera shake;SMART-mode is something! and much more...Disadvantages: no sound when focusing in video mode. The function "night" is useless, although some people want to shoot at night))).In general, this is a decent device for its price category. It can be called a "family camera". The stylish body with smooth lines is a delight! I have a red one and it looks very stylish!

Advantages: wide-angle lens with good aperture, 5x optical zoom, intuitive operation and easy settings.

Disadvantages: mute during zoom when recording video, although this is a feature, not a bug. No other disadvantages yet.

Replaced Panasonic LS75 and chose this model because of the advanced video recording capabilities. Recording 720p 30fps video with stereo sound is impressive, microphones perfectly record sound with high volume, detail and clarity, without low frequencies. As for photos, point-and-click mode with Smart function provides clear, bright and beautiful pictures in 90% of cases without the need for additional settings. However, compared to the Panasonic LS75, the travel of the shutter release and autofocus key is shorter, which may take some getting used to.Overall, this is a great camera for its price.

Advantages: The variety of functions and settings was pleasant, the menu is clear. Video quality for a device of this class is a pleasant bonus. Proper use of shooting modes and work with photo editors allows you to get excellent photos at the output. Battery capacity is good.

Disadvantages: problems with the quality of pictures taken in difficult shooting conditions were solved by the purchase of a tripod and the correct setting of parameters. Comment: I am satisfied with the purchase. Comparing it with photos made by other cameras at a higher price, I didn't notice any difference in quality.

Advantages of Samsung PL70: 0. Smart mode is perfect for those who are not tech savvy. Just press the green button and shoot! Excellent video quality - you can take screenshots in the best frames on your computer and pass them off as photos. The long-lasting battery is great! Even after filling up all the memory, you'll still have three more divisions. The possibility of recharging via USB, audio and video output (tulip and digital), simultaneous transfer of photos and charging compensate for the apparent fragility of the branded connector. Aesthetic design, high build quality and convenience are characteristic features of Samsung products. Stereo microphone. Excellent face recognition. Samsung PL70 Disadvantages: The microphone on the camera is quite sensitive. If you disagree, try setting the sound effects volume to maximum. Along with that, the recording level from the microphone will increase. I don't know who programmed this, but I've already sent my feedback to customer support. A lot of noise is the result of saving on sensor size. But the noise suppressor tries, and the result is something like semolina mush (probably the most accurate definition). Lots of color noise. All other things being equal, the photos taken by the old and venerable Samsung S850 (8 MP, 5x zoom) are much better. In general, sensor size is the first thing I look at when choosing a camera. While shooting, my left index finger tries to cover half of the stereo microphone. Some slowness when using the menus. This can make quick action difficult. Occasionally (rarely) can freeze for no apparent reason. Lack of ability to manually adjust shutter speed. This is partially compensated for by the ability to change ISO and brightness. With ISO 800 and a shutter speed of 1/20 the photos are of acceptable quality, but as the shutter speed increases the quality deteriorates.
