Samsung ST150F Pro Reviews

The credit card-sized flat-fronted 16 megapixel Samsung ST150F with retractable lens is basically the same camera as its WB30F bigger brother, save for the fact that the latter fields a 10x optical zoom as opposed to the ST150F’s 5x optical zoom. This camera is £50 cheaper at a suggested £150, as opposed to its sibling’s £200 manufacturer’s asking price, so in a nutshell you’re paying £50 extra for the additional zoom power and a gently curved handgrip on the WB30F. However, also in its favour along with the cheaper asking price is the fact that the ST150F has a slightly brighter/faster maximum lens aperture of f/2.5 as opposed to f/3.1. Both cameras can be found a fair amount cheaper than the headline retail price however – a quick search found them both roughly £50 less than their maker’s asking price.

The Samsung ST150F is a very compact camera, with a 3inch screen, and a wide-angle 5x optical zoom lens. As a Samsung camera with built in Wi-Fi, it has one of the easiest to use Wi-Fi systems currently available and this makes it very easy to share images and video straight to social network sites, straight from the camera. For this reason, it's worth looking at, although, for just a little bit more money you could have a look at the Samsung WB30F with 10x optical zoom lens.
