    Has anyone bought one of these yet - I can't find any user reviews online.....can't get to a store right now and thinking might order online...but it's excluded from money back guarantee!!!!

    I bought the 10MP version a few weeks back and I love it! It's got lots of different fun functions, like smile detection and blink detection, face recognition up to 10 faces, beautify etc ... and the images are great, IMO. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the camera. However, I'm a home & family user, not an avid photographer, so perhaps someone more experienced would feel differently!

    Hi
    I've reserved a Samsung ES60 Camera from Argos but still don't know if the camera has a plastic body or metal. I reckon if it was metal that this would be added as a feature to its description but as Argos and the Samsung website have not mentioned the body that its probably plastic.
    I would be grateful if someone who has bought this model could tell me if it's a plastic body.
    If it is made from plastic I will give this camera a miss as I'd prefer something with a metal body, noticed that the Samsung ES55 has a metal body although its 10 mega pixels and costs an extra £10.
    Thanks
    Jeff

    Don't worry too much about the difference in megapixels, anything above 8mp is more than sufficient.
    Gone ... or have I?

    Did you not get a camera last week with the offer? :rotfl:


    I did but returned it because it was further reduced after the points evening!

    Even better - they forgot to remove the 3400 points! :beer:
