Title: Not good.
Review: The camera did not come with the memory card it was supposed to, also there seemed to be some water damage on the inside of the screen where you see your photos. Images captured were very blurry. Waste of my money.

Title: Samsung Never Again
Review: The camera was fine, but quit working while under warranty. There was no serial number on the unit. I guess it was on the box, but we could not find the box. After 10+ days of me calling customer service, faxing the invoice, and e-mailing a picture of the camera to prove there was not a serial number – Samsung told me it was illegal for them to service the unit under warranty. I wasted hours!! If they had told me that to start with, I could have lived with it. If at all possible, I will not by a Samsung product again.

Title: A $100 Technical Masterpiece
Review: Having owned a few Nikon digital SLR’s and point and shoots, I was drawn to this camera by its cool looks at first. With its ability to shoot fully manual, adjust white balance, two hours of moving video, and numerous other desirable features including a tripod socket, how can you go wrong for this price? Samsung knows how to pack alot of bang for the buck into a small, attractive and effective package. I hope to break it in soon. Update: December 2015: Have owned and used the L100 for seven full years now. Still working like new. I even mounted it in two different RC airplanes and took awesome videos.

Title: Disappointed!
Review: I bought this camera with high hopes however unfortunately have had bad experiences when using it.Good points:1. Lightweight2. Durable3. Good battery lifeBad points:1. Picture quality (at times I feel the flash is not effective enough to produce a good picture and photos still look quite dark however I have to say I’m not a photography expert this is just my personal opinion. I’ve previously had two previous cameras with lower megapixels and personally feel they had better flashes and produced better quality pictures).2. Not reliable – as another user has also mentioned, this camera has lost photos I have taken (later after taking the picture it will error and lose them when I look through), it has also done the same error when downloading pictures to my computer (which is very disappointing especially when they are photos you wish to keep). Last of all, this camera has also combined two pictures into one, which interesting as it is, it’s also disappointing when you’ve taken nice pictures and wished not to have them combined (as they were ruined).As a result (and I’m persuming this may just be a fault with my camera, not all samsung cameras), I am now purchasing a new camera, as this one is too unreliable for me and it has not encouraged me to purchase another samsung.

Title: **** Better than Expected. Good Value for the Money ****
Review: I got this camera for my 18 years old grandniece as her first camera. Over the years, I’ve owned many cameras from Canon, Nikon, Sony, etc. And after reading numerous reviews, what attracted me to this camera was the ease of use, the girly color, and the price. It turned out to be a good choice. And my grandniece loves it. She was able to figure out how to use it on her own in no time.The camera is very easy to use, it took very good to excellent pictures in a variety of lighting conditions, it records video, it’s small enough to fit in a shirt pocket, has rechargeable battery that last for many, many pictures even with flash. In addition, it has the expansion slot for SD card, so you can take any number of photos depending on the SD card.Overall, this is a very good everyday use camera and a very reasonable price.

Title: Perfect camera for non professionals
Review: I have had this camera for over a year. I picked it for the pixels (8.2) and the color(red). Kinda lame to go by color, I know. On Thanksgiving Day, last year, I had my sister take some pictures of my family (I refuse to pay studio prices when I can get a print for a very low price at Walmart). I blew up the one I liked to a 16×20 to hang on my wall. It turned out perfectly. No distortion or pixelation(if that’s the right word). I take my own pictures, individuals, of my children. They are also all on the wall. 8×10, and of course they look magnificent. I think it’s very easy to use, and love it. However, I made a bad choice and took my camera on a river rafting trip. It got just a little sprinkling, and it’s ruined. But I am buying a new one because it was such a great camera.

Title: I like the pocket size but it suffers in the translation
Review: Photos are clear and zoom doesn’t do it for me. I like the pocket size but it suffers in the translation.

Title: Great Value
Review: I bought this as a Christmas gift for my 15-yr old daughter. I didn’t want to spend more than $100, but I also wanted at least a reasonably recognized name brand. She has just been using it for 2 months, but so far this Samsung L100 has performed extremely well. I believe we got a lot of performance for the price. It starts up very quickly, resolution is excellent, and I like that it has a built-in rechargeable battery instead of AA batteries. I opted for a 2GB SD card as well so capacity is great. I also purchased a small padded camera case to help protect it.
