Who It’s For
Point-and-Shooters - The full auto mode takes control of the camera and makes good choices, but the number of buttons on the back of the camera, and the number of menu options, might overwhelm some users who just want to point and shoot.

Budget Consumers - Well priced for a camera that offers manual control, the V800 is a good value for the money. But there are cheaper cameras out there for deal hounds.

Gadget Freaks - With a stylish design and svelte good looks, the V800 will appeal to certain tastes, but there are no gadgety innovations on board.

Manual Control Freaks - Those who hate the idea of a computer making their photographic choices for them will like the V800: it provides a great selection of manual controls for $400.

Pros / Serious Hobbyists - Although it won’t find much favor with professional photographers, the V800 does provide the level of control that more serious photographers are used to. It’s certainly not as flexible as a digital SLR, however, and there’s a reason the Samsung name is not intimately associated with high-end photographic equipment.
