The battery life on this camera is also
superior. It can be used for a very long time without being recharged. I
get about 100 pictures with the screen on. The LCD can be turned off
though to conserve battery life, thought you probably won't have to.
The aperature speed control is very useful for action shots. I have used
it to capture things being thrown mid-air clearly. The only weird thing is
that it flashes twice, once may be like a warming up or something else, so
if your taking a portrait, you should tell them the second flash is the
actualy taking of the picture, so they shouldnt look away after the first.
For 300 dollars, this is probably the best 7 megapixel camera you can get.
I have yet to see a better picture quality, even with expensive Nikons and
Canons. This camera gives those well known champions a run for their
money. This reaffirms me that you should never doubt anything from
Samsung.

Estoy muy contento con la cámara, el único defecto que le he encontrado es
que el volumen al grabar video MPEG4 es exageradamente bajo.... parecen
películas mudas y ruidosas. Por lo demás es muy buena.

I need a camera with >5MP and short movie feature.
This one looks cool since it comes with mpeg4 video and 7 MP. The reviews
from Steve and other experts are not too bad. The sample pictures online
are really nice to me.
So I bought it. I like it very much before I found this problem.
THE SOUND VOLUME of the VIDEO is VERY VERY LOW! you can barely hear it if
you shoot someone a couple of feet away. How disappointing!
I called Samsung to make sure whethter it is a design issue or just this
one I got is malfunctioning. The RP was so rude. She told me, "this is a
still camera, no a video camera", "it is not a design issue".
I used Sony P-92 before. The volume level of that camera is very good. But
this Samsung V700, what a flaw. Otherwise I will like it and keep using
it.
I ended up sold it on ebay. Please avoid this one if you are inrerested in
its mpeg4 video. It is not worth it.
