Samsung NV24HD Highlights

The total HD experience

To help you get the most out of your still images and videos, Samsung’s NV24HD comes fully equipped with cutting-edge HD technology. Crystal-clear, digital images that can be viewed on a HDTV for the ultimate slideshow via a single HDMI cable. What’s more, the NV24HD is enabled with Anynet+ technology, so all you need is one remote to take control of the action.

24mm ultra wide-angle technology

Whether you’re indoors or out, snapping a landscape or friends around a table, the 24mm Ultra Wide Angle lens gives you a wider shooting range from a shorter distance and more flexibility for a greater variety of high-quality options. Now you have the ability to capture images of beautiful landscapes and entire buildings from a very short distance - not something you can do with a standard 35mm. The 24mm Ultra Wide Angle is a perfect marriage of advanced versatility with the convenience of a stylish, compact camera.

Face detection

The NV24HD has a built-in face detection feature that detects up to nine different faces, enabling you to take perfect portraits of friends and family. In addition to automatically adjusting focus and brightness to optimum levels, this feature also senses and removes red-eye.

Dual IS (Dual Image Stabilization)

Twice the technology for crisp, clear images. Dual Image Stabilization eliminates the blur caused by camera shake and delivers clear, crisp images every time, even under difficult lighting situations. Integrating the best lens shifting mechanisms of Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) with the sophisticated algorithms of Digital Image Stabilization (DIS), Dual Image Stabilization; another superior Samsung innovation, corrects even the tiniest of shakes.

Realistic color AMOLED technology has come of age with this beautiful display. A wider 180-degree viewing angle, enhanced color reproduction, ultra-high contrast ratio, and quick near-zero millisecond response time are just some of the advantages of this new, thinner, screen. Unlike standard LCDs, the bright 2.5-inch AMOLED screen reduces the glare from sunlight so you can see your images under any lighting condition. Add to that reduced image blurring and a broader color spectrum, and you’ll wonder why you ever considered an LCD screen in the first place.

Cutting-edge image processing algorithm DRIM's advanced image processing algorithm lets you capture crisp, rich color images with exceptional speed virtually eliminating artifacts and digital noise.

Customer Reviews

best compact
pros :
- best compact I ever owned (I have Nikon, Panasonic-leica, Fuji, Kodak...)
- AMOLED screen is bright and crisp.
- real wide angle (24 mm)
- one of the most simple to set up ( "real" smart button )
- up to 3200 Asa U can use (granulated but useful, if like me U don't like flash style light))
- SDHD card = 16 Go = more than 3000 photos 10 MP, ultra fine. (Do you remember film rolls ?)

cons :
(just to try to be exhaustive...)
- no optical viewfinder; it could be useful in very special conditions, but most of people don't have the use of it.
- I don't succeed to buy the cradle for HDMI connection. I think it don't exists yet, even at Amazon ! Wait and see..
- no separate battery charger. U must plug the camera to charge the battery. ( but I have a ten dollars universal battery charger for cellulars which works fine !)

1 PROBLEM= 25 MIN Video Max
This is the most recommended camera for real estate photography. However I am upset that I just found out that it has a maximum video length of 25 minutes. Even at the LOWEST video setting and it has nothing to do with the card and the battery.

Otherwise, it is a great camera.

Nice compact camera, stylish and functional
This is a nice little camera. It looks great, feels great, with a nice build quality and finish. Though it may not be the lightest, smallest compact on the market, I find it to be plenty slim and compact so that it easily slips into a pocket. The flash seems to work well, and produces nice skin tones in portraits. The overall image quality is good, but this is not a DSLR, it is an easily transportable compact that is convenient, yet still produces nice images. When images are blown up 100 percent, you can see some smearing or loss of detail, but you won't notice it under normal viewing conditions (screen size on your computer or printed out in small sizes).
This camera is pretty quick to start up, and the refresh rate of the amoled screen is great. The screen looks great and does indeed work outside in bright light. Processing time after taking a shot is quick, too.
The 24mm equivalent wide angle lens is fantastic to have, a must-have for landscape, architecture, or real estate shooting...or if you want to include a lot of people in one shot.
The "smart touch" interface works only fairly well. It is a great idea, but in all honesty, it can be fiddly at times. Personally it does not bother me now that I am used to its quirks, but some people may prefer more standard controls.
This camera has a full auto mode, a program mode which is like auto but allows control over ISO, exposure compensation and some other parameters. There is also an ASM mode which allows you to choose between aperture priority, shutter priority, and full manual. Full manual allows a full range of shutter speeds, but disappointingly, only a choice of two apertures. But at least there is a manual mode, something many other compacts don't have.
