Indoors or outside, up close or far away – with the Samsung WB150, you’re always ready to capture life’s special moments as they happen, so you can treasure them forever. The 24mm ultra-wide lens and 18x optical zoom ensure you capture exactly what you want in the frame. Samsung’s 14.2 megapixels mean that even the smallest details will be reproduced with professional quality. Whether you’re shooting stills or recording 720p HD video – the WB150 lets you relive memories perfectly.

Take your vision much further and clearer
18x Optical Zoom, OIS
The serrated, snow-capped peaks of a mountain range — your eyes take it all in, and so does your new Samsung WB150. With its 18x Optical Zoom, it brings the intimate details closer, so you can capture a Golden Eagle launching into flight. Whether wide-open vistas or detailed close-ups, the WB150 lets you get the shot you want. But it has to be steady too. That's where the WB150's OIS (Optical Image Stabilisation) comes in handy. The very second you shoot, the image is stabilised. So no matter how shaky your hands are, your photos won't be.

Get a whole new view
24mm Wide angle lens
Get more from your lens, no matter what the scene, whether shooting a memorable landscape or the gang’s reunion around a restaurant table. By using the precision-cut WB150’s 24mm wide-angle lens, you will instantly cover a whole-horizon field of view. Now, you can capture memories of landmarks and landscapes, entire wedding parties and the tallest skyscrapers in full scale. No need to back up to frame the shot.

Get full control
Full Manual Mode (A / S / M)
Full Manual gives you the ability to take complete control and capture the photos exactly as you want them to be. Aperture Priority and Shutter Priority settings let you experiment with shutter speeds and depth of field, so you can shoot fast-moving images in low light. With Samsung cameras, your creativity counts most.

When it comes to brightness, it’s brilliant
3” hVGA LCD
Its 3” hVGA LCD provides improved contrast and colour reproduction, which allows you to enjoy a wider and clearer image. And its hVGA LCD brightness automatically detects environmental illumination and adjusts the LCD brightness for optimal image viewing. It does the thinking for you, which makes the WB150 a smart choice.

Make your own movies
720p HD Movie Recording, H.264
The WB150 artfully combines a professional-grade still camera with a compact HD video camera. You get 720p HD quality video at 30 frames per second and 4x longer recording time than MJPEG video. Use the 18x zoom to get up close and vividly personal. SoundAlive, with special zoom noise reduction technology, ensures you crystal-clear, vibrant sound recordings.

The simple way to go pro
Smart Auto 2.0
Smart Auto 2.0 turns fleeting moments into perfect memories with professional-style results. Whether it’s friends at last night’s party or moonbeams reflecting off the water, Smart Auto 2.0 (still and movie) analyses key elements in the composition and automatically adjusts its 16 photo modes and 4 movie modes to capture the best shot. And since life never stops moving, the camera’s object tracking feature captures subjects that just won’t stand still.

See all of it before you shoot it all Live Panorama
With Live Panorama, you can practically capture the whole wide world without having to step back! Live Panorama lets you see the final image in advance, so you know you’re getting the picture you want. It’s as simple as holding down the shutter button and sweeping the camera across the scene.

Show both sides of the story PIP (Still / Movie)
A Picture in Picture Shot lets you iinsert one image or movie within another to capture the full, glorious story you want to share. Snap a picture of a friend bowling a strike, and then combine it with an image of everyone cheering the score.

Combine images, create fun Split Shot
With Split Shot, you can merge up to three different images to create an artistic statement - turn yourself into a centaur by combining a self-portrait with a picture of a horse. Let your imagination loose and enjoy fun.

More fun, More creative Smart Filter 3.0
Boost creative fun with the Smart Filter 3.0 –right on the display! Cartoon filter makes any photo look like an animated film scene while Cross Filter makes light sources appear to have several points of light, like stars. There’s also Ink Painting, Half-tone Dot and more ways for you to express your creative side.
