Wide angle lens with powerful zoom
When life’s too big for a single frame, the 21mm super wide shot mode with 12x optical zoom found with the Samsung WB210 digital camera is the jus the answer. It lets you capture and reproduce memories that are true-to-life and utterly mesmerising. It also features an intuitive 3.5” super smart touch-screen for swift navigation, which is really handy when capturing life on the go. And once you have your new pictures, or even HD movies, you can then add your own personal touch with the new creative editing features. This digital camera is definitely made for people who live life to the fullest.

Just point and it shoots: 21mm super wide shot mode
Wide & Powerful, the Samsung WB210’s 12x Optical Zoom captures long-range subjects fast and easily. Choose the 21mm Super Wide Shot Mode Lens setting and you can achieve sweeping panoramic and long-distance shots in a snap. Yet the WB210 is still lightweight and compact, so it goes wherever you do.

3.5’’ Super Smart Touch Screen
Just like apps on a touch-screen smartphone, the WB210 integrates easy-to-operate touch-screen menus and functions. The key to great performance is easy access and control. The Smart Touch feature offers convenience at your fingertips. Touch the icons on display to quickly launch options and applications that can make your images sharper and easier to capture. Tangible, touchable and intuitive, the WB210 modes and functions are made for effortless images capture.

Edit your own special effects
The unique Magic Frame feature allows you to create sophisticated images and poster-quality visuals that express your mood and personality. Just select one of the built-in Magic Frame templates, including Wall Art, Old Film, Ripple, Full Moon, Old Record, Magazine, Holiday, Classic TV and more. Point the camera at the subject you want, match it within the on-screen template and capture. That’s it. Your subject now is framed by a special mood and background – like magic.

Optical Image Stabiliser for clear, sharp images
Create beautiful images that move you, even if you jostle the camera. The WB210 comes equipped with sensor-shift optical image-stabilising technology. Samsung’s optical image stabiliser uses tiny sensor-shifts to cancel out motion blur, even in low exposure shots. And since the image is being stabilised on the sensor, what you see through the viewfinder — and on the display — is perfectly clear.

Shoot like a pro
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 don’t, or won’t, stand still.

High-quality movies in the palm of your hand
The Samsung camera 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 recording time 4x longer than MJPEG video. Use the 12x zoom to get up close and vividly personal. The HDMI connector lets you watch HD videos on any HDTV or HD monitor. You give up nothing in video recording, except carrying around that extra camera.

Invent new looks for your images
Samsung camera’s Smart Filter lens and colour options make special moods easy for still shots and videos. Tilt & Shift Lens Effect adds a miniaturised look and the Vignetting Effect makes striking compositional contrasts. New special effects include Soft Focus to add an emotional feel, Half-Tone Dot to soften skin tones and Old-Film Effect to set up a retro mood or frame. colour Palette for movies, adds an ultra-vivid vibe. It’s now a snap to get creative.

Smart Face Recognition
Smart Face Recognition recognises and automatically adjusts the focus and exposure on up to 20 faces you’ve designated or have taken the most photos of, so that you can make those special to you stand out in the group.
