Manufacturer's Description
Boasting 10MP, a 3X optical zoom and packed with features such as anti-blur and face detection, the ES55 certainly delivers. Digital Image Stabilisation: The camera makes thousands of adjustments a second, enabling you to take ultra clear images without blur – even in low light conditions. Face Detection: Each time you click, your camera automatically recognises if there is a face in the shot. It then optimises the focus and exposure of up to 11 faces for stunning, natural looking portraits and group shots. Blink Detection: this function detects when a subjects eyes are closed and triggers the camera to automatically take three shots in order to capture the eyes open. Smile Detection: ensures that no happy moments are missed by taking the shot automatically when smiles are detected. Photo Help Guide: If a problem is encountered during shooting, troubleshooting instructions are provided so that image correction can be easily performed by anybody. Step-by-step instructions with simple illustration on use of the camera are provided through the LCD for user’s convenience. The Recycle Bin Function allows you to retrieve images if you've accidently deleted them. Li-on Battery, in camera charging system: Charge the battery inside the camera from a standard electrical socket or alternatively straight from a USB port connected to your computer. No need for additional charger and offers greater user flexibility. The Beauty Shot function uses face detection technology to retouch the facial skin to appear brighter and to give the impression of a smoother skin tone. This can be done either while shooting or during playback.

Great camera from Samsung
i was given this camera as a birthday present and didnt really think much of it. It was'nt until i actually started using the camera i appreciated what a great camera this is! The amount of features were endless! Firstly, face detection. For a low budget camera, i was not expecting much. This camera managed to snap an image with nine people and recognised the faces of each. it is also capable of recognising up to 11 faces in one picture. My old £200 camera would not recognise more than three! Secondly, blink detection. I know to some people it must sound like a useless feature, but once you have tried it, its something you wont be able to live without. When you take an image, the camera lets you know if the person in the picture has blinked while the picture was taken and then gives you the option to re-take the image. Not even my friends £450 camera has a feature like that. Lastly, smile detection. smile and the camera will take an image. Excellent for using instead of a timer like many more expensive cameras have.

Not only because of its features is it a good camera, but the lens is also very good. Carrying a 10 mega pixel sensor, all you images would come out very clear, even when enlarging them to A3 size. The 2.5" LCD display is very bright, which is a huge benefit when under bright light. Overall, this camera is excellent value for money. If your after a decent camera at an amazing price, i would thoroughly reccommend this Samsung ES55.

Great little camera
I bought this camera after some careful review reading and shopping and have been really pleased with the results. My intention was to have a little camera I could have in my pocket to take out and get shots of the children. It does that brilliantly, starts up fast and shows clearly you photo on the screen. It can also be much more as you can change the type of photo, colour, resolution etc. My only must would be to get a memory card at the same time as purchase as it won't hold more than three photos otherwise. Definately a good buy, I'd recommend it. You won't be disappointed.

Quick snaps......
I needed a camera quickly. I went through the options available for the price I wanted to pay. The Samsung appeared to be the one, but only using it would prove if I was right or wrong. I ordered it and it arrived within a few days. I unpacked it and had a quick look at the instruction book, ok so some of the things this said were for the two year old. Look at the instructions for charging and followed it and within a few hours I had a fully charged battery. Had a go with the camera and found it easy to use and it took a very good picture. So far so good. Purchased a extra battery pack and then charged this up. Time will tell but so far a very good buy.
