Is it just mine or is the LCD display horribly grainy?

I got this for a gift for my sister-in-law. To me it's very easy to use that's why I bought it. We use the same camera at work. I'm familiar with it already. It takes a little time to get used to it may be to some people.

It seems as good or better than other ultra-compacts I've had. In low light it does indeed look grainy at times, but interestingly enough, the picture doesn't, it is often much better. Of course, your results may vary, but I think it's pretty good for this price point.

We used it for Christmas 2012 and two birthdays in January and We have not had a grainy image. The movement is a problem.

Yes, I noticed the same thing, you may want to change the ISO speed depending on what your shooting. Remember when using film in the old days, you would purchase 100, 200, 400, etc. The choice was depending on the numbers of what makes your photos grainy/smooth. Try the ISO change and see if that makes a difference. This camera doesn't work well if your image moves. Works well if your image is still. Also you could change the pixel size of the image to a smaller one, this might help also. Good luck!

The display is clear, it may just be a defect in yours or something with the settings.

It's running android 4.04 and the screen is the big problem for me, not high resolution like the Google nexus 7 and 10 which are the ones I use the most. The screen looks grainy to me but I'm old with old eyes.

It's not the best, most of the pictures come out grainy, or dark. Messing with the brightness changes the darkness of it, but the grainy look remains. Also be careful of when the disk space is about 50 mb, mine will not take pictures if it's less than that.

Mine was less than perfect in this regard too. 27$ screen, has to compromise somewhere..

I would rather recommend retunrning it and then rebuy it if needed, I bought mine last year and its totally the opposite to your description, works like a charm and displays 1080p, you can even read license plates

I have a Samsung ln40b610 and I hate the dejudder processing. It makes motion look so unrealistic and completely ruins the magic of movies for me. There is also still a lot of blur and ghosting, even with the anti-blur setting turned all the way up. I think LCDs are just inherently poor at handling motion. 120Hz and 240Hz does help a little bit, but not really that much.

Have you tried any older systems to see if they look okay/have lag?Anyway, thanks for the info! I may have to go for this, although I'm a bit nervous not being able to return it if there are dead pixels or whatever.

Thanks for the reply. Eagle came and picked it up today. I am going LCD this time...Amazon really came through with the return.

Not sure what you mean by flickering... pixelating? this may be a question for Samsung...

possibly it is just me, however i have not noticed any difference, in regard to resolution. I will take a closer look. I have been very satisfied. T. Fruehling

i just noticed they dropped the price to 157, that's a little better. i think it is possibly worth that, i was just irritated that it had dead pixels on arrival. i bought it specifically for emulation as well, and it did that just fine. however, keep in mind the screen is pretty bad. it is not that clear, and the viewing angle from one of the sides was terrible and not equal to the other three, which was odd. i honestly still want one, but am just waiting to see the handheld android market develop more.

You can see what is on the LCD screen but it is fuzzy, not clear. Not recommended. I have used mine to put a slide in it that I want to make a digital photo and put it up the the camera on the computer or Iphone and take a photo. Not perfect but workable.

I agree that the pictures could use more color and now that i turned my camera on (had to double check) I see what your talking about. It does look grainy on the LCD prior to taking the picture Hmmmmmmmmm I never noticed that before..... Here's a link to check out some of the photos taken with the SD950 IS http://flickr.com/groups/ixus960is/ Some of these are very colorful. I probably need to learn how to set my camera correctly :)

I do not notice anything like that on my display. So far, for me, this is a really good TV.

I also thought the 870 images looked grainer on the LCD screen in the store. But this is because its LCD screen has a lower resolution. In fact, someone else wrote that the 870's photos look fine and sharp when printed or when viewed on the computer. It's LCD screen can deceptovely show the photos as a bit grainy if they were taken in low light.
