Samsung Galaxy 16.3MP Camera

[Rob MacKillop]

I just tried one of these in Carphone Warehouse, where Susan was buying an iPhone5. I fell in love with this amazing camera...It is not a phone, but you could place a Skype app on it. The picture quality is stunning on the screen - no idea what it would be like when transferred to computer or printed. The 23mm wide-angle lens seems very good indeed. The touch-screen focus works superbly. Great AF. The zoom is superb - almost one end of Princes Street to the other with decent detail. But the fun is in downloading all the apps - editing stuff, Instagram, etc, but also Dropbox. BTW, when will we have an RPF app to upload to?

Pictures and stuff: Samsung Galaxy Camera - White 4.8 inch HD Touch LCD: Amazon.co.uk: Camera & Photo

Impressed. It's a great walkabout camera, emails, internet browsing...everything except a phone (other than Skype). But maybe Susan will persuade me that the iPhone5 is better..And no, I didn't buy it.

Anyone else tried one?

I haven't met a single person with an iPhone 5 who liked it
