The rumored Samsung smart camera in our last posts came out to be reality with its launch at IFA.The Samsung Galaxy Camera was officially announced at IFA in Berlin Germany, and this is going to be one point and shoot camera that changes the game. While smart cameras are nothing new, it has yet to be done by a major player like Samsung.
The device will feature a nice 16 megapixel BSI CMOS sensor, one that features 21x optical zoom to get those long shots without the horrible grain. All of it is fed to the 4.8 inch touchscreen on the back of the phone. This monstrosity is virtually unheard of in a vast majority of the camera world.
Smart Pro Mode will give you a feature-set that will make you feel like a pro. Things like fast shoot for getting action shots, light capture mode to get those cool looking trailing light scenes, and a feature that lets you bring out the color of the sky are all supposed to help you feel like you’re handling a professional DSLR without knowing much about professional photography at all.
The device also features full HD video, and you can capture slow motion video in up to 120 frames per second. Since the camera is based on Android 4.1 you can share all the content with many different apps straight form the camera. Samsung also includes a sharing widget so you can post your content to a bevy of social networkingservices without needing a ton of apps.
An auto cloud backup feature means your photos will be backed up to a remote server for easy, automatic downloading and sharing, and you won’t have to worry about losing your shots should something happen to your camera.
Share Shot will send the content you capture to other people in real-time using WiFi direct, and a remote viewfinder will let you view the image the lens is currently capturing on your smartphone or tablet.
And connectivity will be no issue if you need to share your content on the go. Samsung is promising 3G, 4G, and WiFi support. It’s essentially a camera phone without the phone bits.
Well seeing the configurations and style,if priced right this is definitely gone be game changer.
