...I have never owned a digital camera before and was eager to buy one so I could uploads lots of pictures onto Ebay, make a fortune and retire. First three steps of my mission have been accomplished, i.e. bought the camera, taken loads of pictures and have uploaded onto Ebay. My final wish is in the hands of the bidders.
Why did I choose the SamsungDigimax301 in particular:
I wish I could say it was because I am very knowledgeable about cameras and photography in general, had done lots of research, read other reviews on Ciao and came to an informed choice. Sorry to disappoint the purists, but I bought the Digimax301 purely by chance. I happened upon a special offer on the Boots.com website and saw they were selling this camera for £64.99 instead of the usual £99.99! Excellent.
What kind of camera was I looking for...

Advantages Ease of use Disadvantages Battery Drain
...I recently purchased a SamsungDigimax301 for the bargain price of £75 including an SD card, and WHAT A FLIPPIN BARGAIN!!
The 3 million pixels really do provide excellent picture quality and the LCD screen is compact yet large enough to fulfil it's functions and the information it displays is simple to understand. It has a built in memory of 16MB
Ease of Use
In a Nutshell - Simple, if I can work out how to use it anyone can.
The main functions are controlled by a mode dial, there are 6 modes which can be chosen:
Still image mode
MySet Mode - this allows you to save settings for future use
Voice Recording mode
Movie clip mode - the allowed depends on amount of memory available
Photo frame mode - allows you to add borders to your images and save it
Night scene mode - just as it says on the tin ideal...

Advantages Great pictures ,makes quality photos Disadvantages none
...Woke up one morning thought i haven't got a camera to take photos on my holiday.
So of i went and bought a digital camera (SAMSUNG digmax301),one which takes good quality pictures, and this one did.
It has 3.2 megapixels ,they say the more pixels you have the better picture you get.
LCD screen so you can view your shot before you take it,digital zoom so you can take close-ups .And can also take short movie clips.
Memory card ,so you can take photos and store them,you can also download you photos to your PC and print them off if you want .
Built -in auto flash ,red eye reduction .
Power -2xAA batteries, with battery level display on lcd screen .
It has the alround ability as a professional camera has ,but not as expensive.
£69.99 @ COMET...
