Cool but a little big in the pocket
I have a few pro DSLR cameras but bought this as a "work" cam. I like it the design its good and solid and the pics are fine. I have not had problems with noise some other reviewers mention however I work in Africa and there is usually (well in the daytime anyway) plenty of strong sunlight so low iso=low noise. Gripes: The lens cap keeps coming off esp. in the pocket, so I secure it with thick elastic bands. The zoom is quick but the zoom button seems to have a mind of its own. I didnt get a man...

Too much noise!
If I'm honest I decided on this camera not only on its features but also on its design. It's a great looking camera and is extremely well built. It's solid, has a great feel and I was really attracted by the powerful optical zoom.However, after using the camera for a month or so and taking shots in all light conditions I was very unhappy with the quality of the pictures. The pictures weren't sharp and noise (speckling) was visible in excellent lighting conditions. I previously owned ...

Be warned, I made a mistake!
Pro's, this camera is very well built, loaded with every feature you could reasonably wish for, and the smart touch menu system works very well and is intuitive once you have learnt how to use it.Even the design is excellent. Very appealing.However be warned, knowing what I know now I would not recommend this camera because of one serious flaw.NOISE!!, I mean digital noise, which for the uninformed amongst you means when you blow a picture up you start to get speckling and imag...

Samsung NV7 'new feature' digital camera
I've just spent my first weekend with my new purchase and can't put it down. There's lots to find out and see how things work as I've been used to a standard automatic camera. The smart buttons are fabulous to find your way around and set up the picture you want to take or stay with the auto button to have it all done for you.For the price in comparison to others I think it's very much worth the money.Only fault I've found is battery doesn't take long to drain and instruction book is a bit of a ...

Loving the NV7!
I borrowed my friend's NV7 when I went to New Zealand for my sister's wedding. I wanted something that took better pictures than my old basic Sony camera. I was very pleasantly surprised with the NV7 having not had any prior experience to Samsung cameras. Yes, the lens makes the overall camera a little chunky but it's worth it when you see the picture quality and it does include a 7X optical zoom. It's also much smaller and tons more convenient that lugging a big SLR out on the plane. I'm sure t...

not impressed
I ordered this camera in a bit of a rush as I had a trip to iceland planned and my old camera was showing off. Usually I'd try a camera out in a shop then order off line but this time I didnt have chance.Because of this I was diappointed when the camera arrived as it was so big and chunky with the lense sticking out at the front permanently (I suppose for a 7x optical zoom its necessary).All this aside if the camera would have taken amzing shots I could have put up with its size, bu...

Not for your pocket
I just got bought this camera for a present and was taken aback at the size of the zoom lense sticking out the front. I suppose I should have realised given that it was a 7x zoom, but the pictures on Amazon are cleverly taken directly from the front and back so there is no depth perception.I can't comment on the picture quality or noise as I'm intending to send it back and go for something a little more streamline.

An excellant camera. A beautiful Design.
I really like the new range of Samsung NV cameras having both a NV7 and NV11. The thing I like about the NV7 is the threaded lens which means you can add filters for artistic photography or a wide angle/telephoto converter (filters are now very cheap on ebay!!) to expand the cameras capabilities.The special Samsung NV7 case is also lovely and worth investing in.With regards to picture quality I have had no problems. Noise that is mentioned by others is just grain (in old ...

Brilliant
i am studying art and this camera is perfect. its versatile, has a range of features and is relatively easy to use.my brother takes photography very seriously and recently bought an SLR for about 3x the price of the NV7 but they are very similar in quality, and features such as the super macro on the NV7 definitely rival, if not beat, that of the SLR. often times its a bit worrying taking a good camera out and about with you in case it gets damaged, but the NV7 is a sturdy thing and ...

Great value
At £69.99 the NV7 is great value, prints out to A4 nice & crisp & noise is OK at iso 100 in good light, in low light & higher ISO's noise does become a problem.....it is what it is, a great little camera to keep in the car glovebox, so I don't have to carry my expensive pro kit & leave it in the boot all of the time, it won't replace my 'proper' gear but then it was never intended too, after all a filter for one of my DSLR/SLR lenses costs more than this camera....puts it all into perspective, a...
