Product Description

The L73 allows the use of the optical 3x zoom to get closer to the subject while still recording. This offers a camcorder-like recording experience. The L73 supports 800x592 SVGA quality a 20fps for an enhanced video shooting experience. You can even edit your movies on the camera itself, making it brilliantly portable. This mode is used to select and cut desired scenes from a recorded movie, and save the scenes. The mode is very convenient because editing a movie can occur within the camera itself, immediately after recording the movie. A special Red-eye Fix algorithm on the camera automatically eliminates red-eye from your pictures. When viewing the images on the LCD, it is possible to listen to music provided by the camera or add special effects to the images to be displayed on the LCD.

SAVE YOUR MONEY
We purchased this during the Christmas sales from Tigerdirect. I used it for about 2 months without any problem. Then one day the lens stuck open and the screen went black. Power turned off. Tried removing the battery and replacing. Battery was charged up to full and still would not work. Zip, Zero response. About a week later I picked it up because I noticed the lens had retracted. Camera was not on. I turned it on and it worked fine. Then about 3 weeks later I used it again and was playing back the pictures on the screen when it did the same thing again. I recharged the battery to full and while hooked up to the computer I was able to turn it on and the lens retracted. But after a full charge it still will not turn on. Even connected to the computer it will not turn on. I have researched the Samsung site but nothing is mentioned about this problem. I did find the E18 error code that is associated to Canon cameras and the symptoms are the same except for the lack of the E18 code on the screen. In hindsight I wish I had purchased one a little more expensive that did not have this problem. I am in the process of trying to get a RMA for warranty repair. But if they are like Canon it will be a user error or misuse even though the camera is kept in a camera case and has not been abused at all. Wish we had spent another $50 and got a Sony.

A great camera - tremendous for the price
I think this camera is awesome for the price. I have tested or owned a bunch of point-and-shoot digital cameras, including a really nice Canon, Panosonic, Nikon, Sony, Casio, Kodak, HP, GE, and several Samsungs. For the money, this is the best of all of them - as I said, weighing price against quality. For some reason, this very well-made and solid camera, in my opinion, has gotten a mixed review - maybe it has too many cool things that it does - I don't know. But it takes great pictures. I think it might be a bit inimidating for the point-and-shoot crowd, because it has all these programmable functions - but that's all I can think of. I give this camera 5 stars all the way.

NIce Camera interesting experience
The camera is os far a good camera, decent batt, nice pics
decent value overall
My first camera came obivously open used and .....broken the zoom was stuck open
JR took their sweet time approving the return even though they were negligent......whatever
eventually they made good and gave me a nice brand new one
i'm happy now

awesome little thing
awesome...way better than my old one... takes crisp pictures especially scenery and text... might be better ones out there but this one is pretty darn good

One of the best
For a point and shoot camera at at very reasonable price the L73 is a proven winner. I have now bought two of these after being disappointed with another product.
