Even in its ultra-compact body, Samsung did manage to fit in a little hand-grip on the right, which helps with single handed operation.
The manual features in the camera revolve mostly around setting your own exposure and color, but no manual focus. I especially love the white balance meter, which instead of giving you the same old presets, just gives you a color bar which you can navigate with the slider below as your display gives you an immediate preview. It's a lot more effective and a better way to set the colors you like.
There are, as one can expect, a plethora of scene modes to choose from but it was the effects mode that I had the most fun with. Take a look at some of the shots below.
