#samsung_hmx_u10 VERY POOR camera. Will NOT take focused pictures. Poor zoom control. Confusing menu. VERY POOR OPTICS. No Flash. No ability to take photos at night. No Video or photo stabilization. I DO NOT recommend this camera at all. Looks pretty, but takes lousy pictures. It's going back. Will not look at any other Samsung cameras. Spend your money on Nikkon... Better cameras for same price or less.

#samsung_hmx_u10 I agree that so far flash is not working well for me... I prefer a non-flash pics cos e-time I got it better that way.. so, for me, this camcorder is still a good buy.

#samsung_hmx_u10 Flashes are a funny thing, they never EVER are perfect on any of them, it's nice to have but taking a picrute in the dark is not what I would do and it only works for 5 feet max and you get crappy at best so if thats all that's wrong I'll take it

#samsung_hmx_u10 Not impressed! I'm sending it back. There is no light setting on it so there is no way to use in lower light or outside night situations. Maybe okay for others, but not for me.
