The Samsung ES55 body has horizontal lines on the front side and there is a powder finish color on the body of the camera. The Samsung ES55 is available majorly in Black, Silver and Pink. The positions of the buttons are very convenient for using the camera. The Power button as well as the Shutter release button is on the top of the camera. The Zoom and other function buttons are placed on the back of the camera besides the LCD.

There is an Optical CCD image sensor with 10.2 million pixels. The resolution of the lens is quiet good. There is 3x Optical zoom. The optical viewfinder is absent on the Samsung ES55. Though the presence of it is not a big issue but it does add to the versatility of the camera. The LCD in the camera acts as the viewfinder. There is a 2.5” LCD screen on the back with 130000 pixels. The resolution of the screen is not great but at the same time it is not bad also. There is an inbuilt flash on the Samsung ES55.

The Samsung ES55 can also record movies at a good resolution of 640 x 480. There is also a microphone for recording sound as well as a speaker to play sound while playback. Lithium batteries are used to power the Samsung ES55. The camera is not energy efficient at all. The batteries last you maximum till 150 shots. There is hardly some memory onboard the Samsung ES55. Thus you have to buy a new Secure Digital or a Secure Digital HC card increase the memory of the camera. So the additional cost of the memory card has to be counted while you think of purchasing this camera.

The Samsung ES55 has other features like Dual Image Stabilization which is a much expected feature from all of the Samsung cameras so nothing great about it. The Samsung ES55 takes less than 2 seconds to start. The processor installed on the camera is quiet fast. The camera is a very good option for the beginners and a good point and shoot camera.

The Samsung ES55 is available at a price of Rs.6500/- approx. There are no great features nor is the price very high. The camera is an extremely cheap one and a really good option for all the beginners.

The Sony DSC-H20 has dimensions of 4.3 x 2.8 x 1.9 inches and it weighs around 280 grams making it a little on the bulky side. The Sony DSC-H20 is a 10 megapixel camera and one of its main features is its 10x zoom capable lens. It also features a 3 inch LCD capable of 230K dots. The Sony DSC-H20 is not too portable and you won’t be able to fit it in a pocket, requiring a case of some sort. The controls on the camera are perfectly sized allowing you to access all the cameras features with ease. One of the main complaints with the Sony DSC-H20 is that it has a physical lens cap. This means that you must remember to take off the cap every time you want to take some photographs as if you don’t, you’ll have to remove it, then turn the camera off and on again. Another problem is that the lens of the camera is narrow rather than wide and this can particularly cause some problems during indoor shooting or group photographs.

A variety of modes can be selected on the Sony DSC-H20. There is a Manual mode that allows you to tweak settings as you want them, there is Sony Intelligent Auto that allows you to choose from 8 preset scenes and automatically turns on face detection and image stabilization and there is also Program Auto which lets you have the best of both worlds. There is a Scene mode that gives you the option to choose from 10 less common scene conditions such as fireworks, gourmet, beach etc. to allow you to take the best picture for those conditions. There is also an Advanced Sports Mode that works best at taking fast moving pictures. The other two modes are an Easy mode for novice users and a Movie mode that lets you shoot 720p HD video.

The Sony DSC-H20 needs just 1.5 seconds to take a shot from start up and time between shots is 2.1 seconds for bright light and just 2.8 seconds when using flash. Continuous shooting can give you 1.7 frames per second and shutter lag is decent at 0.4 seconds in normal light and 0.7 seconds in dim light. The Sony DSC-H20 provides admirable photo quality though at ISO 800 and above taking prints isn’t recommended due to noise. Colours appear natural and bright though not overly so and the lens is extremely sharp. The camera is also great for night photography and its image stabilization works perfectly.

Overall the Sony DSC-H20 provides above average photo quality with great ease of use and functionality that makes it accessible to everyone. There are a few sore points such as the lens cap but it’s easy to look past them. You can buy the Sony DSC-H20 from anywhere in India for a price of Rs. 19000 and many dealers throw in a lot of free stuff like extra batteries, scratch guards etc.
