Samsung S850 Digital Camera

Pros: Allows for Manual controlling, Little Lag Time, Crisp Clear Shots, User Friendly
Cons: Auto Shake Reduction, Lacks In Low Light Situations

Warning: I lack the ability to use large words associated with camera use and technique. I love and adore photography but I honestly struggle to remember my F Stops an Aperatures. I recently found myself without my beloved Canon Rebel XT in the ...

Pros: This camera really does a decent job on video clips.
Cons: No view finder, and 1/2 second delay causes you to miss the best shots.

I bought this camera because of Samsung's reputation and past experiences with their products.
I have had this camera for about 4 months, and I am ready to go back to my Pentax. It has about 1/2 second delay when the shutter release is pressed, and any delay is totaly unacceptable regardless of what is considered good on this site. My Pentax is over 5 yrs old, and has no delay. That is why you pus the button halfway down before shooting. That sets the exposure and focus, as well as determining wheather to flash or not.
