Product Description
Samsung's user-friendly point-and-shoot S630 digital camera combines advanced image processing technology and quality optics with a straightforward, uncluttered user interface and stylish ergonomic design. The S630 simplifies the picture-taking process to let you capture images without worrying about adjusting multiple settings. Samsung's ASR image stabilization system helps to reduce camera shake and image blur during longer exposures and in situations where holding the camera steady is impossible or a tripod is unavailable. The S630 features a built-in microphone, which allows a 10-second voice memo to be attached to any still image. Slide Show automatically scrolls through photos and displays them on a bright and vivid 2.5-inch TFT LCD screen. The camera's Movie mode lets users capture video in one of two resolutions, 320 x 240 and 640 x 480 at 15 frames per second in AVI (MJPEG) format. Just as in still-picture mode, the ASR image stabilization system can be engaged to compensate for unwanted camera movement and subject blur in movie mode. Mechanical and Electronic Shutter Speed - 1 - 1/1500 seconds (Manual 8 - 1/1500 seconds) ISO - Auto, 80, 100, 200, 400 Flash Modes - Auto, Auto & Red-eye reduction, Fill-in flash, Slow sync and Flash off Flash Range - Wide 0.3m - 3.0m, Tele 0.4m - 2.5m (ISO Auto) Primary Power Source - 2x AA Alkaline battery File Format - JPEG (DCF), EXIF 2.2, DPOF 1.1, PictBridge 1.0, AVI MJPEG Movie Clip and WAV Audio Internal Storage Memory - 16MB flash memory System Requirements - Pentium 700MHz recommended, Windows 98, 98SE, 2000, ME, XP, 1024x768 pixels, 16-bit color display compatible monitor, (24bit color display recommended), Microsoft DirectX 9.0C, Macintosh Power Mac G3 or later, Mac OS 9.2 - 10.3, Minimum 64MB RAM, 200MB of available hard-disk space, USB port and CD-ROM drive Dimensions - 99.8x 62.8 x25.7 mm excluding protrusions Weight - 136 grams with

 Good pictures but low battery life November 18, 2008
This a is an overall good camera. Great pics, lots of different options, but the reason i give it 2 stars is because Of battery life.
The batteries on my camera last barely 5 minutes, usually around 3 1/2-
4 mins.. Ive gone through 2 22 packs of double a batteries in the 3 weeks ive had it.
Ive decided just to leave it rather than sped wayy more money on double A's.
Pros:
Great pictures
Lots of cool options
light
inexpensive
Compatible with many different types of cards
Takes Relatively good movies.
Cons
Low battery life
Lot of shutter lag
there appears to be no battery savers option
NO VIEWFINDER Just BATTERY EATING lcd screen.
 OK as backup camera November 11, 2008
I keep this camera in my service truck for those broken parts that has little or no description in the service manual or parts books. The NiMh batteries I use is rated for 2600MH and seems to keep the charge for three months.
The truck is cold on cold days but the camera starts right up. When the batteries dies or not work from cold, I use the NiMh batteries from my AA led flash light.
I rate this a 4 star; I need a viewfinder when it bright sunlight and It's hard to focus.
great "point and shoot" November 10, 2008
Quick camera features review:
runs on 2 AA batteries, either nimh or alkaline (I rec: nimh)
2 GB memory card has space for over 1200 photos at 6mp. (not included)
optical and digital zooms, optional image stabilization,
various single picture modes, video, programmable, timer mode, manual aperture (etc)...
big bright display on the back, fairly easy to use controls. Not to small.
Automatic dust cover closes on power-off.
The things I like about it, and why I bought it: it supports about as many modes as my older full-size Olympus (cost over 3x as mych), uses AA batteries (any kind), has a big viewer, uses commonly available media cards, is fairly small (bar of soap), common mini-usb plug to transfer pictures, cost less than $100. 6 megapixel.
It may not have the optics or ultra-clarity of a $1500 SLR, but for a "toss in the backpack or car and use as desired" camera, it going to be hard to beat.
 Cheap! Cheap! Cheap! So why isn't the price cheap? September 26, 2008
Okay, so you pick up the camera. The first thing you feel is the cheap plastic. We're not talking the same plastic most digital cameras are made of; this is CHEAP! Without batteries, it is by far the lightest digital camera I have ever held. That is already a turn off in my opinion. I doesn't look or feel, in any way, durable. I'm afraid of squeezing it too hard in the anticipation it will crack. Not good.
It has the same amount of buttons and switches most point and shoot cameras possess, the power button, the shutter button, a menu button, etc. The one thing it does have that most don't is the turntable switch to choose different modes of shots, which is usually only found on SLRs. I don't know if Samsung thought this would be appealing to people. It certainly makes switching shots quicker, but it's not going to cancel out the horrible body.
The startup time of the camera is quite fast with no welcome screen, so that's good. The first thing that I want to do is get in there and setup the size of the image. But, wait! It's nowhere to be found. 2816x2112 seems to be the only resolution this camera takes. But, I later discover that you have to press the trash can button to change image sizes. It's not in the menu where you would find it in most cameras.
So, after I have the images fine tuned, I go to take a shot. I have a stuffed moose that sits on my desk and I use it as a prop for most of my photo taking lately. It seems no matter what setting I set it on, Portrait, Scene, Manual, ASR, Program, Auto, or Night Scene, this camera will NOT focus on the moose, no matter how far away from it I am (we're talking within 5 feet or so). Now, most of the other cameras I've tested will focus within 2 feet of the moose. This is rediculous.
I take a picture of a different subject that the camera WILL focus on and wait for the Eye-Fi to upload it. IMMEDIATELY I notice noise in every shot. I thought this was just the jenky LCD screen that they used with the camera. Nope, it's the image itself. There is no reason why this camera should have so much noise.
I'm done toying with this camera by now. There is nothing that is going to bring my rating above one star. NOTHING.
I do not recommend this camera whatsoever. And the price that it is selling for? You have got to be kidding me. This is NOT a great camera for the price. If you gave this camera more than 2 stars, you have obviously never owned another digital camera before, or this is your second digital camera, with the preceding being manufactured in 1999. Horrid.
 Great Camera August 30, 2008
I brought this camera in April this year and it was my best purchase since. It is perfect, the quality is great and yes there may be a lag between pictures but hey my friend has a Nikon and a Sony and those cameras have the same lag time as this one.
I would recommend anyone to purchase this cam, and please don't study people when they say the camera has no battery life- you not suppose to use normal batteries on ANY digital camera because it will only last a few minutes. I bought a rechargeable pack batteries and it works jus fine.
For the price this is the perfect camera and it is HIGHLY recommended by me.
