Camera Overview — Samsung ST66

The Samsung ST66 is a compact point-and-shoot camera built around a 16MP, 1/2.3-inch sensor capable of capturing images at a maximum resolution of 4608x3456 pixels. Its brushed metal body measures 91.4 x 53.3 x 17.8 mm and weighs just 102g, making it an easy camera to slip into a pocket for everyday use. The 2.7-inch LCD display with 230,000 dots serves as the primary framing and review tool, as no viewfinder is present.

Autofocus is handled via contrast detection, and the camera operates across an ISO range of ISO 80 to ISO 3200. A built-in flash covers a range of up to 13.8 feet, providing onboard lighting for low-light situations without the need for an external unit. Video recording tops out at 720p at 30fps.

The ST66 stores images to SD and SDHC cards and is powered by a Lithium-Ion BP70A battery rated for approximately 280 shots per charge. Connectivity is straightforward, with USB available but no Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or USB-C. There is no image stabilization of any kind.

The camera's lightweight brushed metal construction gives it a more premium feel than typical plastic-bodied compacts in its class.
