Be adventurous with the Samsung W200 pocket camcorder. Full HD and Aqua Mode let you capture the ocean’s brilliant landscapes with sharp clarity and in vivid colour. Shoot high-quality videos and stills even in poor lighting conditions thanks to the 5M BSI CMOS Sensor and F2.2 bright lens. And since it’s shock resistant and dust resistant the W200 can withstand anything you can. Now you can play hard without harming your camcorder.

Designed to be resistant to Water, Shock, and Dust
Capture a world of mystical underwater creatures, vibrant coral reefs or simply underwater fun. The Samsung W200 films sharp, brilliant moving pictures in up to 3 metres of water depth, handles dust and sand with its dust resistant feature, and resists shock (2m shock resistant) making this camcorder the must-have item for all your adventures. Take it with you to the beach, pool, desert, mountain tops, anywhere your adventure takes you and capture every moment with the Samsung W200.

Stunning details, vivid colour in any environment
Recording in 1,920 x 1,080 30p/25p Full HD helps you capture the exquisite beauty of each and every moment in rich natural colour with deep and dynamic details. Movies shot in Full HD resolution retain their incredible image intensity when viewed on Full HD TVs and monitors. The W200 camcorder uses 30p/25p BSI (Back Side Illuminated) CMOS Sensors to deliver improved sensitivity of conventional Samsung CMOS Sensors, dramatically reducing image noise, distortion, and enhancing recording quality in low light conditions. With an F/2.2 aperture, the Bright Lens on the W200 camcorder offers a wide range of aperture stops compared to standard models of Samsung camcorders. That gives you the ability to shoot at high shutter speeds during low-light conditions for stunningly clear, sharp, images.

Clear video underwater with Aqua Mode
Filming underwater generally generates low quality videos due to dim lighting and static noise. However, the Samsung W200’s advanced technology and features-White Balance, Sound, Focus, Aqua Mode-specific to underwater environments helps you take clear, high quality videos up to depths of 3M. So, every video you take whether in or out of the water is perfect!

Always Clear for Full Enjoyment
Nothing is more frustrating than having your camcorder lens fog up when you come in from the cold or water. The Pocket Cam, W200’s lens with Anti-fog coating lets the steam disperse, so you have clear videos and pictures.

On-the-go convenience in one compact camera
Tired of too many wires weighing you down? The Samsung W200 lets you connect anywhere without the inconvenience of having to carry extra cables. It features a handy USB arm built right into the bottom of the camcorder so you can easily transfer videos to your notebook and share them with friends and family.

Take a break in the action
The Samsung W200 is filled with a number of unique features, including Samsung’s Record Pause. While shooting a video in Record Pause mode, it allows you to briefly pause the recording and then pick up right where you left off without creating a new file. This way you only have one file to work with and don’t have to merge files for editing, sharing or transferring. With the W200, recording your child’s playoff baseball game and sharing it with your family is easy.

Personalise your memories with artistic effects
Get creative with your Samsung W200’s Smart Filter feature. Smart Filter lets your creative imagination run wild with a wide range of colour and lens effects to deliver an artistic edge to your videos and stills. The Miniature effect shrinks your subjects; Vignetting fades the edges of your shots; and the fun Fish-eye effect gives your videos a cool, distorted feel.
