  1. Samsung S1070

    6.0/10
    Reviewer: Canny Shopper "Old Boy", Amazon

    A good camera but mine has a fault that was not apparent till after guarantee conditions. It is that it will not focus correctly on a situation at any zoom setting other than normal. This is evidenced by a red outline on the screen instead of a green one. This then takes a photo, but the focus is just not quite right. I did not notice this on the camera at the time but when you view them on a PC or similar, they are poorly focussed and unsatisfactory. Read more
