Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS1 can be an option if you’re looking for a compact camera with a long zoom. Featuring 10 Megapixel, 12x Optical Zoom 25-300mm lens with the aperture of f3.3-4.9, and 2.7 inch LCD screen (230k resolution) this camera passes the standard of nowadays pocket camera trends.
Lumix DMC-ZS1 build was good, and looks quite appealing. This longzoom compact camera with its dimension (2.4 X 4.1 X 1.3 inches) can snug well into your pockets. Panasonic also designed the controls of DMC-ZS1 camera pretty remarkably, giving its user an easy to use interface, eventhough for some people, the dial spins was a little bit too free and tends to move out of place when they use the zoom ring or pressing ZS1’s shutter release button.
Samsung ST550 was a big hit in samung digital camera products line. Featuring a 12.2 megapixel with Schneider Kreuznach 4.6x Optical Zoom wide angle lens 27-124mm, this compact camera seems quite promising. But what makes ST550 special is their dual view camera concept, having dual LCD screen that lets you preview the scene from the front and the back. This feature were really helpful for casual camera users that often take their own photos. Well, let’s get on the review.
The pictures taken with this 12 megapixel samsung camera was quite good, the colors is nice and the view is clear. But I would not recommend taking photos of a moving subject with ST550 since the result tends to blur.
