Samsung Maxima Zoom 145

I sure hope you all are liking these little reviews.

This is the second camera I had with me for a little check ride (the other was the Ricoh Shotmaster 130), and it performed splendidly. It's a little chunky for a P&S, but then it has to store that Schneider-Kreuznach 38-145mm zoom when it's not in use. I'll have to get a manual so I can check out the rest of the features, but what I did use worked right.

I wouldn’t call them lucky, but these cattle have a nice place to feed until its market time.

Tectonic force is an amazing thing.

This is now one of my four favorite P&S cameras. Let me know what you think.

Nice shots from both and thanks for the capsule reviews. I think the Ricoh would be my pick just because of wheel vs button mode select. The LCD dies, you're still in business with the Ricoh.
