Product Description
If you are looking for ease of use and a simple sleek design in your new camera, focus on the Samsung Digimax 240 - it captures high quality digital images in a compact and affordable format, and provides a range of top spec features at an affordable price. The Digimax 240 is for those snappers who like substance and style and are comfortable with digital photography. A high quality SHD range will ensure clarity of shot while 2.0 mega pixels allow the smallest details to shine through and - for those who insist their own presence should be strong within shots - a 10 second self timer allows all faces in the frame. Shooting takes place in single as well as continuous modes, and both still and moving pictures (to 320 x 240 pixels) are downloadable. Framing your subject at a glance is easy with the 1.6" color TFT LCD screen while the digital zoom can capture a still image up to twice its normal size due to the Samsung SHD lens' focal length of up to 15.6 mm. The 240 is the ideal gift to yourself if you have entered the realms of digital photography and are ready to upgrade to a more professional style of camera while retaining the convenience and reasonable price of a Samsung product.Amazon.com Product Description
The Digimax 240 allows you to capture memorable moments with high-quality images anywhere, anytime. Elegant and sleek, the new Digimax 240 comes with a 3x optical and 2x digital zoom to get you up close to the action. Its 2.1-megapixel resolution enables you to print enlargements up to 8 x 10 inches. Other features include a 10-second delay timer and built-in flash.The Digimax 240 automatically adjusts exposure according to various shooting conditions, and exposure can also be adjusted using a separate programmable exposure compensation. Short video clips can also be recorded on the Digimax 240 (in AVI format) as well. The camera also comes with features such as Quick View (on the 1.6-inch LCD screen), slide show, and the ability to view on one screen or up to 9 split screens.
A mode dial lets you switch from still image mode, movie clip mode, play mode, and set mode with a simple twist. Images can look their best thanks to 6 flash modes, adjustable white balance and a selectable ISO sensitivity (Auto,100,200,400)
You can store images on the standard 8 MB internal memory, or on optional Secure Digital (SD) or MultiMedia (MMC) memory cards. Transfering images, as well as other files, between PC and Camera are a breeze using the USB interface. There is no need to open a specific program. Just drag the images from the camera and drop them in the desired folder in your PC. Images can also be played back on an external monitor or TV via the NTSC/PAL video output. The Digimax 240 is powered by two AA batteries and is compatible with CR-V3 batteries.

it's alright.......2004-04-06
Previously I had many problems with it. I had it for a couple months and it would hold about 18-24 pictures normally (I don't have a card for more storage just yet), but then it began to hold only 7-9 pictures. I'm still not entirely clear on why that was but I formatted it on the advice of a friend and it's now back to normal. I did lose the pictures I had on it after I formatted it but that was expected. Rechargable batteries are generally a must need for any digital camera unless you enjoy watching batteries be eaten away within an hour.
The software has given me problems also. I selected a few pictures from a large selection out of the immediate download folder, copied them, went over to another folder, pasted them, returned to the main folder where my pictures taken should have been, and everything was gone. Checked all over my hard drive in case I somehow selected all the files unknowingly, found nothing. From now on I copy them all from the root folder into a single folder on my hard drive at the same time and move/rename them from there.
In short, this is an alright camera. It can be tempermental at times, but it's good for beginners so long as they don't encounter the same problems I've had. User friendly and all that. Everything's pretty simple to find. Nice zoom, good selection of flashes.. Definately better with rechargable batteries and a charger though. I also wouldn't reccomend buying it if the feature that you like the most is the video clip since that uses all the memory and has no sound. There's no flash available for the clip as far as I know so the quality's horrible if you're indoors with little light.
A Good Value.......2004-02-10
Take a travel writer's word for it!.......2003-12-06
This was my 10th digicam, to be precise. I have taken this with me to Kenya, New Zealand and Mexico. All 3 times, I have got fabulous photos, whichi magazines have accepted.
True, this IS a beginner's camera, but one easily gets fooled by the looks, style, price and brandname. I got fooled, to tell you the truth. But even a professional photographer would be amazed at the quality of these photos;they come out ACE!! I mean, they ALWAYS come out ACE!!
So the bottomline:
THIS CAMERA IS A SNATCH. IT'LL BE THE ENVY OF YOUR FRIENDS, AND YOU'LL BE WOWED BY IT TOO. SO DON'T HESITATE:GO AHEAD AND BUY IT;YOU CAN WORK WONDERS WITH IT!!
From an observant consumer.......2003-11-12
2-M Pixles from Digimax 240 is more than sufficient for photo sizes of 4 X 6 or 5 X 7 as it gives superb photo quality & sharpness. I find that it is good enough for larger photo sizes as well when the best performance settings are chosen when taking shots.
I see that a lot of people complained about the short battery life. But I conclude the reason is that Digimax 240 operates on 2 AA batteries whereas most other 2 MP digital cameras need 4 AA batteries. It is a trade-off because 2 AA batteries give you shorter life, but 4-battery-operated cameras look and feel funny (also bulky and heavier) because they have to house 4 AA batteries. Digimax 240 has an attractive shape without any funny contour since it only houses two AA batteries - makes it easier to pack and carry. Also, see my comment on rechargeable batteries at the bottom.
Here are good and bad of my Digimax 240.
Very good: Excellent photo quality, sharpness / Ergonomics & easiness of camera operation / Easy to follow manual / Light weight-wise / Comes with a quality pouch / Solid construction / Easy software installation / Different settings for different weather situation - cloudy, sunny, sunset and more / Different settings for fineness and sharpness - 1200 X 1600, 600 X 800 and more. This allows you to control the size of the file - sometimes you don't want the photo to be too big in file size. / Automatically (but also manually) able to change the level of light exposure (separate feature from the aforementioned weather settings) - this helps you to get quality photos in darker and brighter environment. Usually the camera will automatically adjust the settings according to different environment, but you can do it manually as well, over-riding the automatic settings. Being able to manually adjust the weather and light exposure really made improvement in my photo outputs in extreme conditions.
Good: Flash reload time / Flash power - could be stronger as the flash recommended range in dark indoor space is about 8 feet. But then, this is what the photo-editors are for. Also, talking to and seeing photos from many friends with fancy digital cameras, I found out that shooting, focusing and getting quality photo product in darker environment is a challenge for any digital camera. In other words, conventional film camera is still the way to go for photos in darker settings.
Bad: Fairly short battery life - but my friends with other digital camera brands told me that they can't really use theirs without rechargeable batteries and AC adaptor... Besides, the manual strongly recommends using AC adaptor when connecting to PC, where the batteries really get used up. I recommend NiMH type rechargeable batteries and an AC adaptor - I bought them and they work very well. With the first two AA size rechargeable batteries I have shot close to 100 shots with flash and I still didn't have to recharge the batteries.
Not Very Good.......2003-09-28
I returned the camera and spent a little more to buy a Cannon A40. I love the Cannon A40. It really does have adjustable ISO along with many other mannuel controls, including a variety of special effects, such as black and white. It takes good pictures under all conditions, even in low light, and comes with better software than the Digimax 240. Battery life is also much better. The A40 still uses batteries relatively quickly when campared with other devices, but it can nevertheless take 50 to 100 pictures or more before the batteries die, and that is with inexpensive store brand alkaline batteries.
My choice for buying either of these cameras was based on the limited RAM in my computer, 32 megabytes. Most of the cameras out there required 64 megs, but these cameras could run on less. If I had 64 or more megs on my computer, I would have purchased a Cannon A-60 camera that has even more features than the A-40.
