Samsung PL200 is a standard point and shoot digital camera and if you are expecting anything out of the box, you will be bitterly disappointed. The video quality here is of DVD quality and this is disappointing as the manufacturer claims that the device can shoot 720p HD videos. There will be plenty of judder if you pan this camera too quickly or if you shoot moving subjects. AV output here is composite only and you need proprietary cable for it that is not included in the box.

Canon PowerShot G12 is quite similar to G11, its predecessor but the manufacturer has put in a few updates here like 720/24p video capture which was really needed and there is also miniHDMI and stereo audio. Just like S95, this camera has HDR scene mode which combines 3 shots. For this, you need to keep the tripod steady and this makes it only marginally useful. The image quality on the Canon PowerShot G12 is same as G11. The pictures look great in lowest ISO settings with excellent exposure and color. When you go beyond ISO 200, the details start degrading and pictures start getting overt and noisy at ISO 400 and above. The highest usable setting here is ISO 800.
