Customer reviews
We Love it!! by .. Robert Arnett (Livermore, CA.)
Our NV11 is a special camera. It handles so well and takes great pictures. It feels like an “A” and looks like an “A”. The zoom is nice and all the features are incredible. Can you tell we like it?
nice camera, but get a spare battery 
by .. Jonathan B. Fischer (Philadelphia, PA USA)
This camera rocks. I love the lomography camera body style and the anti shake allows for some great night shots with out having to futile use the flash. The only catch was that my battery started to go after about 300-400 shots a day on vacation. So if you shoot under that, you should be good, otherwise, it would be best to get a spare battery and keep it charged.
My dream camera by .. P. Houk (Spokane, WA USA)
Please know that I have never taken any photography courses and have very little technical knowledge. I wanted a high MP camera with a rechargeable battery that took black and white pictures. After researching every camera I could find that met my requirements and some that didn’t quite, I chose the Samsung NV11.
The Pros:
Without any technical knowledge it was kind of intimidating with all of the menus at first but I downloaded the manual off the Samsung website and the camera is VERY user friendly. I am ESPECIALLY pleased with the Super Macro function, taking close ups of flowers etc it has an AMAZING zoom. I love the video camera function, it’ll take a movie up to 4 hours long (my Fuji finepix had a very short video limit). It also came with an a/v hookup so I can connect my camera directly to my tv which I love.
This camera is teaching me a lot too, using different options and functions I can tell instantly on the screen its effect on the picture.
The Cons:
The digital zoom from 3x to 5x tends to grain a lot and the battery life is just so-so. The audio on the video function cuts out when you try to zoom which is annoying but I bought an extra battery and work around the rest, overall I am VERY happy with my new camera!
The finest small digital camera. by .. T. Hein ()
Of all the smaller digital cameras I’ve owned, this is the best.
I carry it with me everywhere
Unique, good looking camera.
Easy to use. Superb, sharp picture quality.
Functions as advertised. Never a problem.
As with most cameras today it does not have a view finder.
Framing your subject in daylight is a little difficult.
Love this camera by .. Christopher M. Palasz (Chicago, IL USA)
It’s hard to find a good camera these days. They all look so nice and shiny and stylish. At first glance, I wasn’t too sure about the Samsung NV11. It looked bulky to me - and old. But in the end, I trusted the great user reviews this camera has been receiving and WOW - I was NOT let down!
This camera is the best! You really can’t beat this camera for the price!
PROS:
It’s not as big as it looks. Takes great quality videos AND pictures. The screen is really big. Great style! Lots of features. Battery life, despite complaints from other users, lasts as long (or longer) as a standard Nikon camera in the same price range (or more expensive). (I took mine on vacation and it lasted about 5 days of heavy usage. Great zoom! It comes with a USB chord to charge from your computer, OR the USB chord can plug into an adapter (included) that can be plugged into a wall socket. It’s really a great device!
Cons:
Well I don’t have any complaints at all, really… and I’m a very big critic of everything. I would recommend two counter measures, though, if you buy this camera: 1) Buy two 2GB SD cards to make sure you have plenty of room for taking pictures and videos. 2) Buy a couple extra batteries from Ebay and charge ‘em all up before you go on vacation. Works like a charm!
Final note: I highly recommend this camera.
