Product Details
The 10.2-megapixel Samsung NV24HD is a point-and-shoot for camera enthusiasts. Its retro, all-black look gives it the appearance of an old-school film camera, but it houses some very advanced features. The NV24HD has a vivid AMOLED (active-matrix organic light-emitting diode) display that can be viewed in bright sunlight, and it's able to record video in high definition (720p at 30 frames per second). The camera's 14-button menu matrix will definitely intimidate novice digital photographers, but if you are looking for a higher-end point-and-shoot or a low-cost way to shoot HD video, this might be the camera for you.
the Samsung's bulky feel will be off-putting. Yes, the camera weighs only 145.5 grams and measures only 2.3 by 3.75 by 1 inches (HWD), but its boxy shape and odd button layout make it seem larger. The NV24HD uses a Schneider-Kreuznach glass lens whose focal length is 4.3mm to 15.5mm (the 35mm equivalent is 24mm to 86.6mm), which provides a wide-angle view, and its aperture ranges from f/2.8 to f/5.9. The camera lens also features a 3.6X optical zoom
