Camera Overview — Samsung SL201

The Samsung SL201 is a compact point-and-shoot camera built around a 1/2.3-inch sensor with 10MP resolution, making it a straightforward option for everyday casual shooting. The camera's autofocus system combines Contrast Detection with Face Detection AF, capable of identifying up to 9 faces in the frame simultaneously — a genuinely useful feature for group shots and portraits. Image stabilization is handled digitally via Electronic IS, helping to reduce blur in handheld situations.

The SL201 features a 2.7-inch TFT LCD display with 230,000 dots of resolution for image review and composition. Video capture is supported at up to 30fps in 8-bit color with a Standard color profile. The ISO sensitivity range runs from 80 to 1600, covering a reasonable spread of lighting conditions.

Storage is flexible, supporting SD, SDHC, and the camera's own internal storage. Connectivity includes USB, though there is no Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. A built-in pop-up flash is included for low-light situations.

The body is constructed from a plastic and metal composite, measures 90 x 58 x 19 mm, and weighs 150g — genuinely pocketable. Battery life is rated at approximately 200 shots per charge using the SLB-0837 Li-ion cell. There is no viewfinder and no weather sealing.
