Product Description
It's first appearance seems somewhat like a home movie camera from the 1950's but the SC-D6040 is very much a technological breakthrough of the 21st century. It combines a DV digital-video camcorder along with a digital-camera while delivering uncompromising performance for both functions.

 The best of both worlds February 2, 2006

This is what you have been looking for.I love my Samsung DuoCam.It takes great pictures and the video mode is awesome.I love the night mode too.I actually used my Samsung to take a picture of my cousin's new car at night(it was pitch dark). Wow is all I can say! The picture came out great, it was crystal clear. I love that I can capture video on my memory card or miniDV, but I hate that there is no sound on the memory card playback. Of course when you download your video to computer you get sound.The software is little difficult to use but, I've mastered it now. Hint:READ the manual, it will save you some time.
 The perfect 2-in-1 camera. Great buy!! January 10, 2006

I love this camera. The video and picture quality is great. It is so easy to use and switch from video to still pictures. It is easy to manage your pictures on the computer also. I simply can't say enough good things about this camera. What a great feeling you get when you purchase something that lives up to the hype and expectations. A rare find!

I did some research whether to buy a digital camcorder or a new digital camera. I couldn't decide. I had a digital camera, but many times I wished I had a DV to bring back the sounds and feel of the moment also.
Well, when I saw this Samsung online, I had to read the reviews. Not bad, so I bought it thru amazon. Very Impressed - good video and good pictures - you must use supplied software. I was not successful in putting the memory stick in a card reader and coping over the files. Didn't work. Put it back in the camera and plugged the camera into the usb port - no problem.
Only other issue is if you twist the knob to fast from video to still pictures - it gets messed up and doesn't do the right thing. I then have to shut it down to recover. Power on to taking a picture is maybe DV or still is about 8-9 seconds. Don't be in a hurry to grab that shot!
Still a good buy for having both in one unit. Good choice.
WOW! I never knew it could be this good- can't put it down April 13, 2005

This bad boy ROCKS!! Within minutes of getting it I was taking pictures and video of my son. It has all sorts of cool features- artistic effects, sepia tones, black and white, fading in and out...but that's not the coolest part. I love that there is a lens cover for the camcorder and that we always have the choice available between camcorder and digital camera. The battery life is long and you can easily adjust the settings for lots of pictures OR very very high quality pix and just not as many can be stored in memory. Hooking it up to transfer pictures to a PC was a cinch. So much easier than our old JVC camcorder. This is so easy to use and we've only had it a couple of weeks. Did I mention the night vision? Don't hesitate...buy now, you won't be sorry!!

This is an easy to use camera and videocam. It takes excellent digital photos and the video quality is also great. For a very reasonable price you get very high quality equipment! My four year old son even took some good photos with it.
The product came with all necessary items needed to use it right away, including a battery and charger and all necessary cables, such as USB. The only thing I had to go out and buy was a tape.
