Point and Shoot Digital Camera Review: Samsung SL620


This camera takes some amazing pictures even when using the flash indoors in the evening. My friend J Zubiere, a makeup artist, had the Samsung SL620 during a shoot out in Las Vegas, and I was really impressed by how great the shots came out in all kinds of environments.  She also used it poolside in Ft Lauderdale during sunset on a steamy night and it took great pix then as well.

Definitely the point and shoot digital camera I would suggest even though it’s probably a couple years old. You can get it on sale on Amazon now for around $120, which for that quality I’d buy one if I needed a new P&S.  Oh, and here’s a link to a decent book on shooting with a point and shoot by Rick Sammon: “Confessions of a Compact Camera Shooter: Get Professional Quality Photos with Your Compact Camera”
