Terrible camera. Not happy.
on April 11, 2012
Posted by: NotHappyPL120
I bought this camera for my wife. She thought it was the coolest camera with the front LCD screen. Upon using it for the first time, the quality of pictures are lacking, and it takes FOREVER to take a picture, even with all the extra's turned off. ALWAYS BLURRY, must stay still for a long time, its unpractical. I am trying to find the receipt to try to return the camera. I tried everything to make the camera work.
Cons: Did not meet expectations, took too long to take picture, blurry pictures
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

confusion

Operation directions are unclear in the quick start pamphlet and online is even worse. Only pictures with no directions is a ridiculous way to set up. I went online to view some options. Too much playing, not enough clear info. Probably a great camera if I ever figure out how to use it.
Pros: Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: poor directions
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Right, Not as good as I expected! BLUR IMAGES !!

Samsung PL120 Camera and accessories, both are pretty good although I have had some blur images issue. First I thought its because of my hands movement but even after using the "tripod" it captures blur images.. It is because of the time taken for "processing" the image in camera. I have to keep the camera steady for 2-3 seconds to get a clear picture which is annoying and little bit disappointing. 3 on 5
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: Poor quality, Did not meet expectations, slow performance, takes too much time to process images
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Like it but can be improved

I always wanted this camera so I bought it. I loved that it has the dual view. I love that the camera is small and can fit in your pocket and it is light. The thing I do not like about the camera is that in most of the settings you are not able to use flash. Takes clear and crisp photos.
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Lightweight
Cons: flash not always available

WARNING! DON'T LOOSE YOUR CABLE!

The features on this camera are great! The images are great. The forward display is way cool. I totally agree with all the previous reviews on the features and performances.
There is 1 HUGE drawback to this camera. Don't loose or misplace your cable. Charging and direct photo download can only be done with the specific cable that comes with your PL120. I had the bad experience of going on vacation in Europe to find we lost our cable, and could not find a replacement or even the same model in three different countries. Even the Samsung universal charger does not work with this camera. I think Samsung made a huge over site in not recognizing this before putting this product on the market.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
