Samsung PL200
$180.00
Released September, 2010
The Pros:Compact and lightweight - pocketable despite the slightly longer zoom lens. Affordable price point. 7x optical zoom lens, 31-217mm equivalent - very versatile for a cheap pocket camera.
The Cons:Slow lens - F/3.3-5.5, poorer in low light. No HDMI output, AV output requires a proprietary cable and is composite only. Video quality is lacking.
The Samsung PL200 is a mid-grade camera designed for basic consumer "Point and Shoot" use. The PL200 features the same basic body design as Samsung's former PL series cameras and is availab le in several different color options.
