The Samsung S850 is a high resolution digital camera that is equipped with a true-colour filtered 8.1 mega-pixel CCD. This allows the Samsung S850 to produce even better images and take detailed photos for printing up to poster size. In addition, the Samsung S850 has a optical 5x and digital 5x zoom giving 25x total zoom when combined.

FEATURES:

  • The Samsung S850 has a large 2.5” LCD for improved contrast and colour reproduction, allowing you to enjoy a wider and clearer image.
  • The ASR technology prevents the degradation of image clarity and colour common to flash photography. With ASR the effects of camera shake are reduced in lower light conditions. You can even take well exposed, sharper pictures in low light without using a flash at all. It guarantees brighter and more natural pictures.
  • The powerful video capability of the Samsung S850 delivers a “camcorder like” experience. For a more enhanced movie shooting experience, the Samsung S850 uses MPEG-4, the high-compression high-quality video format, which can record for up to 3-4 times longer than the traditional video formats used in many other digital cameras. With powerful video recording in SVGA(quality 800X592) at 20fps, it provides a wider screen view and clearer video quality.
  • The Samsung S850 has a Movies Stabiliser function, which helps maintain steady recording of a subject by means of automatic detection and correction of lateral and vertical camera movements.
  • The Successive Recording function of the Samsung S850, which is based on exclusive Samsung technology, allows you to pause and resume video recording as desired and merge those multiple movie into a single file.
  • For easier editing of movies, the Samsung S850 allows you to select and save only the desired part into a new file during playback, on the camera. Samsung S850 also allows you to capture a still image during palyback.
  • The manual functions of a digital camera enable you to produce any image you want to express in picture taking. The powerful manual function support enables you to express your image intentions according to the subject. For the convenient A Mode and S Mode functions, you can change mode easily by operating the left/right button (shutter speed priority) and up/down button (aperture priority) of the 5-directional button. When using the camera in M Mode, even a novice photographer can easily use the manual functions with the optimum exposure display at the bottom of the LCD.
  • Mode Macro’s available up to 1cm. When set to Auto Macro Mode, the Samsung S850 automatically adjusts the shooting distance and focus from between10 cm to infinity, helping you taker to take pictures more easily.
  • This clever feature allows you to choose the best picture by taking 2 shots simultaneously - one using ASR and one using a flash. So if you're unsure, let the camera do the work for you and simply choose the image you prefer when the hard work's been done!
  • The Samsung S850 has some intriguing special effect functions - including Colour Effect, Highlight, Photo Frame and Composite Shot - that give you unique, and sometimes amusing, shooting experiences beyond conventional picture-taking. You can access each of these special effects with just one touch of the “E” button.
  • The S850 support the latest SDHC memory card that provides an expanded memory capacity 4GB and faster data transmission.
