Well worth it
Its just a bit larger and heavier than other point & shoot cameras. However, the EX1 has superior build quality, an incredible lens, and a super bright AMOLED screen. Very low noise and a larger than normal sensor. There is even an optional external viewfinder.

Samsung EX1 review
The best-selling cameras in this country, and in much of the world, are models the names of which most AP readers will not have come across. They sell in their thousands through electrical chain stores, mail-order catalogues, online retailers and TV shopping channels, and cost between ￡50 and ￡100.

- Easy to use
- Very good image quality
Cons:
- Limited resolution
