Samsung DualView TL225 Camera gets Reviewed


The Samsung's DualView TL225 digital camera's second front-mounted display seemed like a good and innovative idea. But is it really good or disappointing? Wired reviewed the camera today and they rated this one a disenchanted score of 4/10.

Wired have been putting the TL225 through its paces, and they’ve concluded that not only does the second screen cause its own share of problems rather than solve them, the underlying camera itself is a let-down.



Wired also found that the front display does make lining up shots straightforward, but unfortunately it then encourages those in the picture to look to the side of the lens. The end result is a well-framed photo with nobody looking at the camera.

In addition to the laundry list of problems listed above, the image quality is also poor in anything other than bright light with plenty of shutter lag, much less then you would expect from a 12.2 megapixel camera. For $300 it seems like a gimmick that’s gone wrong.
