Price last checked: 10 Sept 2013. Confirm current price before buying.
This is a compact point-and-shoot built around a 16.2 megapixel CCD sensor and a 5x optical zoom lens covering 26-130mm equivalent. The standout feature is the 3.0-inch touchscreen LCD that tilts, which makes framing self-shots or low-angle photos easier without a separate viewfinder. Optical image stabilization helps keep shots steady given the modest F3.3-F5.9 aperture range.
Video tops out at 720p HD recording in MPEG-4 or H.264, with a mono microphone, so it's fine for casual clips but not a video-first camera. Storage runs on microSD cards, and there's HDMI output for viewing on a TV directly. Samsung MV800 price in Malaysia starts from RM540, positioning it as a budget compact for someone who wants a flip-screen for selfies without stepping up to a smartphone camera.
At 121g and just 10mm thick, it's easy to slip into a pocket. There's no manual exposure control or external flash support, so this stays firmly in the point-and-shoot category rather than a enthusiast compact.
