How to select the right Samsung camera



The ES series



The ES series is Samsung's entry-level lineup more suited for consumers purchasing their first digicam. These affordable cameras may not be the slimmest on the market, but we can see that effort has been made to make them look more stylish. However, shooters in the ES series lack a physical image stabilizer (optical or sensor-shift) and instead rely on digital IS which boosts the ISO sensitivity but can affect the quality of the shots.

In this series


Samsung ES60
The 12-megapixel ES60 has a standard 3x optical zoom lens which is widest at 35mm and extends to 105mm. To make it more friendly for beginners, there are plenty of scene modes to choose from so anyone can take decent pictures.

Other related model: ES55

Samsung ES17
The ES17 has similar specifications as the ES60, except that this camera uses convenient AA-sized batteries for power. However, this adds to the bulk of the shooter and that may be a deal-breaker for some.

Other related model: ES10
