Get a whole new view: 27mm, 4x zoom
Get more from your lens, whether shooting a memorable landscape or the gang’s reunion around a restaurant table. By using the precision-cut ES9’s 27mm wide-angle lens, with its 4x optical zoom, you instantly cover a whole-horizon field of view. Now, you can now capture full-scale memories of landmarks and landscapes, entire wedding parties and the tallest skyscrapers.

Shake, Rattle or Stroll: Digital Image Stabilization (DIS)
Even the tiniest shake can ruin your shot. The ES9's Digital Image Stabilization solves that. Digital Image Stabilization gives you sharp images no matter the condition. Whether it's low light, zooming or just a case of plain old shaky hands, your photos come out sharp and clear. So let the ES9 shake things up. In a good way.

When it comes to brightness, it’s brilliant: 2.4" Intelligent LCD
When we engineered the Samsung ES9 to be bright, we meant it in both senses of the word. It’s intelligent and luminous. It has a 2.4” LCD for improved contrast and color reproduction, which allows you to enjoy a wider and clearer image. And its Intelligent LCD brightness automatically detects environmental illumination and adjusts the LCD brightness for optimal image viewing. It does the thinking for you, which makes the ES9 a smart choice.

Just what you had in mind
You see the image you want in your head. You point the ES9. And Smart Auto sees it too. This scene recognition technology actually chooses from 15 different settings ranging from landscape to portrait automatically.

VGA quality video. Now in a compact camera
If you prefer still shots to movies but want to leave your options open the ES9 is right for you. You'll get 640x480 quality video at 30 frames per second. You even can use the 5x optical zoom to get up close and vividly personal. And when things get dicey, you can even pause your recording. You'll give up nothing, except carrying around that extra camera.

The camera loves you: Perfect Portrait System
No one has a bad side with ES9's Perfect Portrait system. Sure it fixes red-eye, but this next generation face detection technology even detects blinking. So you're always sure eyes are open and smiles are bright. In addition it evens skin tones, erases blemishes and removes dark circles. And with different level settings, you can control how much retouching as needed.

Object Tracking AF
Achieve the beautiful composition you’re looking for by simply selecting any object on the camera display. Object Tracking AF technology will track the object and focus for you?all you need to do is press the shutter button.

Smart Album
Smart Album automatically organizes your photos by type, date, color and week so that you can find that one particular shot amongst 2,000. It does the looking for you. In fact, it can even do a face search!
