Customer Reviews for Samsung Digimax S500 Digital Camera [5MP 3 X Optical Zoom]
Good Camera for those who just want to take basic photos posted on 2007-12-09
I bought this camera to take on holiday travelling around in China. For what I wanted it was a brilliant camera, the 'auto' mode covers most pictures so I could just point and press most of the time. However if you want to take more specialist pictures the 'manual' mode is easy to use, having left the manual at home I managed to work it out in around 10 minutes. I didn't have any battery problems, I was using Ni-mh batteries but I'm not sure how much of a difference that makes. The picture quality is also excellent, however it does need to be held still - moving shots aren't great quality. On balance - a great camera for amateur use.
 
Nice camera. Good battery life. posted on 2007-10-18
I love this camera. I always get great pictures, and the macro mode is pin sharp for close ups. I've never had any problems with battery life when i use Uniross Hybrio (Ni-Mh) rechargeable batteries, and i get around 100 - 120 shots before a recharge. If you use normal alcaline (Duracell Ect.) batteries then expect to have to carry a bag of them, because they just don't last (about 15 - 20 pics with normal use), this is typical of digital cameras.
 
Lovely Phone shame about the battery posted on 2007-08-19
I concur with those who have battery problems. I manage about 10 pictures before they die. Nightmare. Have just bought Ni-Mh AA Batteries from Amazon as per a tip on this page.
 
Good basic camera posted on 2007-07-06
The pictures from this camera a very good for the price,worth buying as a second camera,I bought one for my daughter.
To solve the battery issue buy a set of 2700mah rechargeable batteries
 
Superb for the money posted on 2007-07-05
I was stunned by how good this was for the price. I take pictures of the family and use it a lot in work for records of equipment. They pictures look very good to my eye and it is well featured but obvious to use (unlike some cameras four times the price). Optical zoom and big LCD are very good.
The comment about batteries was wrong - a camera like this needs to use Lithium batteries - not expensive if you buy from Ebay or similar. Alkalines rarely cut it on this type of device.
