Can anyone remember the conclusion AP gave the Samsung NV24HD - I can't seem to find the copy with the test in it!
I'm looking to buy a smallish compact camera to use when my dSLR is not practical. I've narrowed it down to three cameras under £150.
1. Canon A590is
2. Canon a720is
3. Samsung NV24HD
I like the A590is and the A720IS they're neat and compact, have a viewfinder and manual control if required. Not sure that I need the additional zoom range of the A720is, although it may occasionally be useful.
The Samsung it a totally different beast, no viewfinder but it has a 24mm (equivalent) lens and can also capture HD video (this feature is quite appealing).
I'm not after ultimate image quality, just a camera to slip in my pocket when out and about.

Any idea how long ago it was tested? I'm sure I'll be able to locate my copy if it's a recent one.

Soryy, no idea. I've checked all my copies and can't find it. I suspect my wife has thrown it out.
I've read a few other review, online, and it seems that the picture quality is a bit average. But it does have a 24mm lens and HD video!

If you can't find the review, I think Chris (Siuya) holds the Samsung in high regard, look at this thread.

I was tempted, but I've just ordered a Canon A590IS, it was only £89 from Empire Direct (and I can pick it up in store for free as wark almost next door to their Bradford branch!) It seemed too good a bargain to miss out on! Plus I get a free Euro 2008 Football (Oh joy), so that's someone xmas present sorted as well!!!
