Samsung Digimax V70 7MP Digital Camera

Samsung Digimax V70 7MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom

The Samsung V70 gives you powerful 15x zoom, 7.0-megapixels, crisp MPEG-4 movie clips with audio, and the ability to print without a PC. A customizable menu enables you to standardize the camera options that you use most, while its high-precision lens provides you with accurate focus control that captures images as close as 1.6 inches. It also has a built-in rotational (270-degree) LCD screen, which means you can capture great shots from creative angles and adjust the screen for better visibility in bright conditions.
With nine acceptable power sources you never have to worry about your Digimax running out of power, and you can take 440 images on one charge. Ten types of scene modes (like close-up, sunset, beach and snow, and more) provide you with extra image opportunities not offered by many other cameras. The useful text mode lets you shoot documents like books, magazines, and newspapers, save them as an image file, and then convert them to text or .doc files using the Digimax Reader Software.

By mounting the optional Wide Angle Conversion and/or Tele Conversion lens with lens adapter, your picture-taking opportunities become even more amazing. You can get shots as close as 1-inch with the Wide lens and a total zoom capability of 25x when using the tele lens combined with the V70's digital zoom.

The camera also offers multiple language support, a menu for you to set your color preferences in each shot, and a quicker transfer to print your images. This camera is even a handy camcorder. The MPEG-4 compression gives you an hour of video and audio recording time when using a 256 MB memory card.

270-degree Rotating 2.0-inch TFT LCD Monitor
The Digimax V70 has a large built-in rotational 2.0-inch (117,000 pixel) TFT LCD screen. The LCD screen may be rotated up to 270 degrees, enabling users to photograph themselves or to capture low-positioned subjects when holding the camera up high. Also, the screen can be rotated to adjust the LCD visibility when outdoors with bright light conditions.

7.0-Megapixel Digital Camera
The Digimax V70 has a built-in 7.0-megapixel, high-resolution CCD and uses advanced image processing technology to produce rich but natural color tones. In addition, the Digimax V70 has a 3x optical and 5x digital zoom, providing 15x total zoom when combined.

MPEG-4, VGA-Class 30 Frame-Per-Second Movie Clip with Sound: Superior Quality and Longer Recording Time
The Digimax V70 supports MPEG-4, a high-compression, high-quality movie clip file format that can record up to 4 or 6 times longer than MJPEG, the usual format for DSC movie clips. The Digimax V70 can even be used as a camcorder since it supports more than one hour of video and audio recording time if you are using a 256 MB memory card. It also processes up to 30 frames per second in bigger size(610 x 450) than QVGA (320 x 240), enabling playback on television. The length of the clip is only restricted by the amount of memory available.

Enhanced and Powerful Manual Shooting
The Digimax V70 provides a manual picture-taking function, especially useful for professional users. The camera supports detailed focus control with Manual Focusing. It also supports manually controlled exposures using Aperture Priority, Shutter Priority, and Manual options. Specifically, exposure may be controlled by the easy to use Jog Dial in conjunction with an AE Lock function.

Different Power Sources
The Digimax V70 supports no less than nine kinds of power sources, including AA Alkaline, AA Lithium, CR-V3, and rechargeable Ni-MH batteries, as well as a dedicated Li-ion battery. You are free to take pictures whenever and wherever you'd like without having to worry about running out of power and missing out on a perfect photo opportunity. With Samsung's exclusive battery and a specially designed low-power circuitry, you can experience the benefits of greatly extended battery life. It is capable of taking up to 440 shots and 220 minutes according to Samsung camera's standard (continuous shooting every 30 seconds with the LCD on). Samsung recomms using batteries for a digital camera (within a year from the date of manufacture). As for the AA type alkaline battery, you can only use the high capacity type. Do not use the normal type alkaline battery.

Outstanding 15x Zoom
The Digimax V70 has a Schneider lens delivering sharp 3x optical zoom with a focusing distance of f=7.7 to 23.1mm (f=38-114mm when compared to a 35mm camera). When used in conjunction with the 5x digital zoom, it results in a 15x zoom capability.
