Editorial note

The Samsung PL90 is a compact camera that stands out for its exceptional image quality, thanks to its 12.4 MP CCD sensor and a maximum resolution of 4000 x 3000 pixels. Users will also appreciate the built-in image stabilizer, which ensures sharp photos and videos, even in motion. With a 4x optical zoom and a 5x digital zoom, this device allows for capturing precise details from a distance, making it a good choice for those who want to immortalize distant moments. However, there are some limitations to consider. The maximum video resolution of 640 x 480 pixels may disappoint users looking to create high-quality videos. Additionally, the internal memory of only 50 MB is insufficient for storing many photos and videos, making the use of an external memory card necessary. The lack of compatibility with Mac systems may also restrict usage for some users. In terms of design, the Samsung PL90 is lightweight (122 g) and compact, making it easy to carry on a daily basis. The battery life is also satisfactory, with a capacity of 740 mAh, although frequent recharging may be necessary for heavy users. Features such as various scene modes are assets, even if the macro focusing range is relatively limited. In summary, the Samsung PL90 offers good value for money, but it is essential to consider its limitations in terms of video and compatibility before making a choice.
