The Samsung ES80 delivers true-to-life colour and detail with its ultra wide lens and 5x zoom. Once you have taken the photo, that’s when you can start being creative with the editing tools. The Perfect Portrait system allows for you to create visual effects while also removing unwanted blemishes - giving your pictures that professional look. And with VGA quality video recording capabilities, you can really capture all of life’s precious moments.

Get a whole new view

Get more from your lens, whether shooting a memorable landscape or the gang’s reunion around a restaurant table. By using the precision-cut ES80’s 27mm wide-angle lens, with its 5x optical zoom, you instantly cover a whole-horizon field of view. Now, you can capture full-scale memories of landmarks and landscapes, entire wedding parties and the tallest skyscrapers.

Shake, Rattle or Stroll

Even the tiniest shake can ruin your shot. The ES80's Digital Image Stabilisation solves that. Digital Image Stabilisation 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 ES80 shake things up. In a good way.

When it comes to brightness, it’s brilliant

When we engineered the Samsung ES80 to be bright, we meant it in both senses of the word. It’s intelligent and luminous, both. It has a 2.4'' LCD for improved contrast and colour 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 ES80 a smart choice.

Just what you had in mind

You see the image you want in your head. You point the ES80. And Smart Auto sees it too. This scene recognition technology actually chooses from 15 different settings ranging from landscape to portrait automatically. Then adjusts for the perfect shot. Whether it's catching your friends on a night on the town or a waterfall off a mountain.

VGA quality video. Now in a compact camera

If you prefer still shots to movies but want to leave your options open the ES80 is right for you. You'll get 640 x 480 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

No one has a bad side with ES80'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 you do. Not that your friends and family need any.
