Pentax M50 8MP versus Samsung S730 - Revenge of the shit cameras Anonymous
Hello /p/

I have a bit of a dilemma and I'm hoping you can help me.

I have two cameras here, one a Samsung S730 7.2MP and the other a Pentax Optio M50 8MP. I got both at the same time and have had the time to use both. I can't decide which is better because I don't really have a discerning eye for quality.

My mom's birthday has come up and I'm going to give her one of these cameras. I'm a bit more of a techish girl and she's...well...she's a 50 year-old woman. Which do you believe would be better for my purposes versus hers?

I use my digital camera for just about everything...from vacations to sight-seeing. She borrows my camera for eBay and taking pictures of our horses.

Thanks for your help.

flip a coin, really. the difference between these two cameras is basically splitting hairs. better yet, give one to your mom and one to your dad and go buy a better camera for yourself. honestly, almost no one regrets buying a dslr.

You're the one with both cameras in front of you. Most of us haven't even touched either. Do you really think we're in a better position to make this decision than you?

>I'm a bit more of a techish girl
Not techish enough.

Based on specs alone, keep the Pentax.

OP here, and I was hoping someone had experience with one or the other. I mean, sure, I could've posted the specs too, but I was also interested in things like brand loyalty. I realize they're both shit cameras, but I'm using a Pentium 4 to post this, IE I'm as broke as fuck.

Hey, my dad is in his sixties and can write software and use an SLR. Don't let your mom's age be the deciding factor.
