Camera Overview — Samsung L301

The Samsung L301 is a compact point-and-shoot digital camera built around a 1/2.3-inch sensor with 12MP resolution, making it a capable everyday shooter for casual photography. The camera's slim plastic body measures 94.5 x 61 x 20.5 mm and weighs just 116g, making it genuinely pocketable for day-to-day use. The 2.7-inch TFT LCD display with 230,000 dots provides a reasonably sized screen for composing shots and reviewing images in the field.

For focusing, the L301 relies on a contrast detection autofocus system. Image stabilization is handled digitally via the built-in Digital/Electronic IS system, which helps reduce the impact of camera shake in lower-light situations. The ISO range runs from 80 to 1600, giving some flexibility across different lighting conditions.

A built-in pop-up flash provides supplemental lighting when needed. The camera stores images to SD and SDHC cards and connects to a computer via USB. Battery duty falls to the SLB-10A rechargeable Li-ion pack, rated for approximately 200 shots per charge.

Color profile options include Standard, Vivid, Black & White, and Sepia, giving users a handful of creative looks in-camera. Video recording is supported at up to 30fps in Standard color profile. There is no Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or weather sealing on this model.
