Re: Owning a WB850F, my thoughts

A very comprehensive analysis. Sorry to hear you are finding things a struggle. You should not need patience though. How your average Joe on the street is going to cope with this I do not know. You have to wonder what field testing if any has been done on the camera with its production software firmware installed. They must stop beta testing the stuff with early take up buyers in the rush to get to market. Samsung really need to put a chunk of money into goodwill or their reputation with the photographic community will go farther down the toilet than it already is.

Sorry I am sounding like steakb. I will sign off for the day until I get better but it is depressing sometimes just looking at the way Samsung work. They do make money but a bit of Sony's customer orientation, though extravagant, would be nice occasionally.

I was tempted to switch my lumpy but reliable with long battery life Canon SX40 to a WB850 but that idea has completely evaporated.
