Is the Samsung WB1100F worth it?

It is a reasonable pick if you want a long zoom for daylight travel shots at a low price. If you shoot indoors or want sharp video, a newer camera with a larger sensor will serve you better.

How far can the Samsung WB1100F zoom?

The lens reaches 875mm equivalent at full telephoto, a 35x range starting from 25mm wide. That is enough to pull in distant subjects, but the small sensor and lack of stabilization make hand-held telephoto shots harder.

Does the Samsung WB1100F shoot 1080p video?

No. Its maximum video resolution is 1280 x 720 (720p) in H.264 format.

What memory card does the Samsung WB1100F take?

It accepts SD, SDHC and SDXC cards. Internal storage is only 21 MB, so plan on buying a card.

Does the Samsung WB1100F have Wi-Fi?

Yes. The F in the model name denotes Wi-Fi, which lets you transfer photos to a phone or tablet for sharing.

When is the Samsung WB1100F cheapest?

This is an older model, so prices mostly move with remaining stock and clearance sales. Watch for drops around major sales events and when a listing is the last of its inventory.

Our take on the Samsung WB1100F Compact Camera

The Samsung WB1100F is a bridge-style compact camera built around a 35x optical zoom lens covering 25-875mm equivalent, so it handles wide landscapes and distant subjects without changing lenses. It uses a 1/2.3-inch CCD sensor, a manual zoom ring, and a 3-inch rear screen, with Wi-Fi for sharing shots. Video tops out at 720p, and the sensor is small by modern standards, so low-light results are limited. It is a long-zoom travel camera rather than a low-light or video tool.
