Samsung Digimax L85 8.1MP is the world’s first digital still camera to feature High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI). This revolutionary new feature allows L85 users to share their photos on a high-definition television in their original quality. The eight-mega-pixel L85 also includes a Schneider Kreuznach 7.8-23.44mm lens with 5x optical zoom, as well as a 2.5-inch LCD display (approximately 230K pixels), which provides the photographer with a wider viewing angle and a more vivid viewing display. The stylishly designed camera offers a comfortable grip, ergonomic design, and a sleek black body with silver accents.
For the more advanced photographer looking for additional control, the Digimax L85 provides multiple manual functions at the user’s fingertips. The L85 features three kinds of manual exposure adjustment including Aperture Priority, which allows more control of depth; Shutter Priority, which allows better capture of fast motion; and Manual adjustment, which allows users to set the shutter and aperture themselves.
Along with its many manual functions, the Digimax L85 also has Continuous Shooting mode for consecutive shots. This model also includes Auto Exposure Bracketing (AEB), allowing users to shoot a series of pictures with slightly different exposures to ensure perfect lighting and Autofocus Bracketing to take several shots which focus on different elements of the frame to ensure that the perfect image is captured.

4.0 out of 5 stars It’s worth the investment., July 3, 2006

I took this camera with me to Honolulu, Hawaii during my very recent vacation trip there. Since it was my first trip to the island, I wanted to make sure that I took good pictures not only as a memorable token but also to show off to friends. I was amazed on just how crisp and clear the pictures turned out. The colors were so rich and vivid. The video was unbelievable that it captured every moment liked I remember seeing the events live.
The one thing I don’t particularly like about this camera is the size which is about the same size as a disposable camera, maybe slightly smaller. But, I learned to live with it very fast.
I am looking forward for my next vacation trip to Buenos Aires in less than 2 weeks. I love to go places I’ve never been to so I know that I will be using this camera for a very long time. It’s really worth my money.
