Questions & Answers

Janice . : What type of battery charger is used for this camera? I've misplaced mine.
Shopper : I'm trying to decide what to get. Why did you pick this one?ANNA M : I actually got this for my daughter. She wanted a camera that also had video and liked the front view feature as well. I was trying to decide between this and the pl170 and ended up getting the pl120 because it was cheaper.DAVID S : Bottom line is that it was the best bang for the buck. The front facing lcd screen is a plus as well. After receiving it and testing it out, I definately made the right choice. It was simple to use and the picture quality was better than I anticipated. Hope this helps.THANH D : I never have this camera before, I just see the option that you can view your self from front view lcd, It kind of slow to save the image into your media. Overall. I still like to use Sony camera better than Samsung. Better color, take faster, more option to adjust with auto mode.
Shopper : is this a touch screen?OLYA T : No, it isnt.MICHELLE C : I will have to apologize that I am not sure. I am amateur photographer and use a Nikon DSLR. I was looking for a decent camera for my 25 yr old daughter while still in college. I had it narrowed down and then I just showed them to her and she chose this specific camera for the dual screens because that's a really big thing nowadays to take pics of self with friends. I charged it and took a few goofy shots and left them on the camera just for fun. I didn't read manual. I have a niece who received a Samsung dual view in summer 2009 and I'm not sure if it's same model but don't think hers was touch screen. I think there are only a couple that have that. It wasn't a priority for us so I didn't pay attention to it. I DO know that if you have ANY questions at all about products Adorama sells, don't hesitate to call their sales dept. I have been buying and selling equip with them since 2002-2003. They will give great advice if you have something in particular your looking for. My 2nd point and shoot was a Nikon 4300 way back and after my brand new camera was stolen in NYC within days of 9/11. I called to purchase a specific camera and sales person directed me to the 4300 that cost way less than what I had called to purchase. That's integrity! I still pull out that point & shoot when I don't want to carry weight of DSLR. They gave me excellent prices on older equip I never used to get a new DSLR lens. I trust them and do not hesitate to recommend them. Narrow your choices down then call them to tell them what you are looking for and they will give great advice! Good luck and sorry I could not specifically answer your question. I think since the camera is not a new model that it's prob not touch screen but daughter loves it so far!ERICA M : NO, I wish..Sorry, it seems that way doesnt it.Erica H : No, this is not a touch screen.

Dissappointingly slow performance

I purchased this camera for my wife for Christmas because she loved the idea of the front facing LCD screen. The screen is neat but all of the nice features were over shadowed by the woefully slow shutter performance. From the time you press and hold the shutter button, it takes several (3-5) seconds before the picture is taken. This makes it impossible to shoot quick candid shots. So unless you tell everybody to hold still you will miss the shot you want. Unfortunately, we will be returning this one.

wonderful product

Wonderful camera in low light, however, self-portrait mode which is great doesn't use the flash. Sometimes it takes awhile to focus and there is a slight delay after the shutter is depressed.

Whether you're taking a self-portrait in your living room or posing with friends on vacation, the new PL120 gets it right every time. Its dynamic Dual Display feature lets you see the shot on the 2.7" Intelligent LCD and 1.5" Front LCD screen before taking it, so you can smile for the camera and be the photographer at the same time.
