This camera is enormous, but not without good reason: the 15x zoom range and 31/2" LCD screen set new records for digital cameras. So too does the battery capacity. It lasted for 532 shots in our test. If you need a rest from the LCD, there's an electronic viewfinder with a similarly high resolution. Even the top-mounted colour screen normally used to display camera settings can be pressed into preview duties. Physical controls are equally abundant,
The camera rarely excelled or embarrassed itself in image-quality tests. Dependable performance in tricky lighting conditions is not to be sniffed at, though image noise was intrusive at ISO 400. The zoom range makes for a highly versatile camera, stretching from a wide-angle 28mm to the same 420mm focal length offered by Panasonic. However, Samsung's lack of image stabilisation means you'll need very bright conditions or a tripod to use the 420mm focal length. The Pro815 is great fun to use, but it's almost too audacious. It's the monster truck in a Lab test of four-wheel drives: fun in theory, but you might feel self-conscious using it. SPECIFICATIONS:
