Camera Overview — Samsung Digimax 240

The Samsung Digimax 240 is a compact point-and-shoot digital camera built around a 2MP, 1/3-inch sensor capable of capturing images at a maximum resolution of 1600x1200 pixels. It features a 1.6-inch fixed LCD display with 117,600 dots of resolution, giving shooters a quick way to frame and review shots without relying solely on the optical viewfinder, which is also included for those who prefer a more traditional shooting experience. The autofocus system uses contrast detection with a single focus point, keeping operation straightforward and accessible.

ISO sensitivity runs from 100 to 400, covering basic indoor and outdoor shooting scenarios. The camera accepts SD cards as well as offering internal storage, and connects to a computer via USB for image transfer. A built-in flash handles low-light situations, and the battery compartment accommodates either a CR-V3 lithium pack or two standard AA batteries, making it easy to find power on the go.

The plastic body measures 110 x 62 x 40 mm and weighs 200g, making it genuinely pocketable. There is no image stabilization of any kind, and no wireless connectivity, which is consistent with the camera's era and entry-level positioning. Color output is limited to a Standard profile.
