Samsung show off their S830 camera today with a nice 8 megapixel lens. Beside the powerful lens, this camera is from Samsung, therefore it is very compact and feature-packed.
Here are some highlights:
- Shutter speeds of up to 1/1000 sec
- An ISO equivalent of 1600
- 2.7-inch LCD display
- One-touch Playback button
- 20 megabytes of internal memory
- SD and MMC memory slots
- Color effects include B/W, sepia, blue, green and red
- Auto Macro function
- Movie mode at 160×128 to 640×480 pixels
Here is an excerpt from the press release:
“Compact and powerful the Samsung S830 offers high resolution and provides enough detail to produce high quality images large enough to be creatively used up to poster size and by taking advantage of the speed of the camera and its high resolution it is the ideal camera for taking images of any fast moving action such as sports and animals.
For maximum versatility and ease of use a convenient mode dial with a range of 10 camera settings is easily accessible. These settings include special scene modes such as Night, Portrait, Children, Landscape, Dawn, Close-up, Sunset, Backlight, Fireworks and Beach & Snow which help to produce stunning results in difficult lighting conditions by optimising the camera’s exposure.”
There are no words on how much it will cost, but it should be out on the market by Spring of 2007.
