Manual of product DV90
Editorial note
The Samsung DV90 is a compact camera that stands out for its exceptional image quality, thanks to its 16.1 MP sensor and a maximum resolution of 4608 x 3456 pixels. This allows for capturing every detail with precision, making this device ideal for immortalizing precious moments. Additionally, the 5x optical and digital zoom offers the ability to photograph distant subjects while maintaining superior image quality, while the built-in image stabilizer ensures sharp photos and videos, even in motion. However, this device has some drawbacks. Manual focus can be complicated for users who prefer the simplicity of automatic focus, especially in fast shooting situations. Furthermore, the internal memory of 50 MB is relatively limited, which may restrict the number of photos that can be stored without an external memory card. The maximum video resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels may also seem insufficient for those seeking higher video quality. Finally, the lack of compatibility with Mac systems could limit access for some users. In terms of user experience, the score of 80 indicates an intuitive interface and various shooting modes, although manual focus may pose a problem. Image quality performance is rated at 75, highlighting the excellence of the sensor, but the video may disappoint. The nickel-metal hybrid battery technology offers satisfactory battery life, with a score of 85, while the compact and lightweight design is rated at 78, making it easy to carry, although the weight may hinder stable handling. Finally, the value for money is reasonable with a score of 70, but the limitations of memory and compatibility may restrict accessibility for some users.Score details
