Digital Camera Review

Samsung’s latest barrage in the battle of the budget cameras is the S730 and S630, two 7.2 and 6 megapixel cameras priced at $199.99 and $179.99 respectively. Apart from the resolution, the two cameras are identical, so we’ve looked at them together. Both include 1/2.5-inch CCD image sensors, 2.5-inch LCD screens, 3x zoom lenses and Samsung’s ASR (Auto Shake Reduction) mode, which they claim reduces camera shake by increasing the ISO setting and shutter speed. We looked at some pre-production prototype models at the CES show in Las Vegas; the final versions of both cameras are due to be released in Spring 2007.
