Samsung Electronics, a global leader in digital media, has launched two new dual screen compact cameras.

The new PL170 and PL120 offer a unique combination of high image quality, fun and engaging special features and complete usability, while featuring Samsung’s innovative dual screen technology, a statement said.

In addition to the 1.5-inch front screens, the two models also incorporate the Easy Self Shot feature which enables users to turn on only the front screen for added privacy.

“The new Samsung 2View digital cameras combine simplicity of use and perfection; allowing consumers to directly recognize the value of what the dual LCD technology can do by ensuring the ability to take perfect profile shots even if they are not behind the camera,” said Justin Shaw, general manager of AV division, Samsung Gulf Electronics.

“2View is Samsung’s own proprietary and we’re the only provider of the technology until now. We look forward to these products improving our customers’ lives in the same way that they have helped us to grow our market share over the past two years, and we will continue to innovate to make sure we have complete ownership of this segment of the market,' Shaw added.

All 2View models come equipped with an HD movie recording feature. The Smart 2.0 filters, such as ‘soft focus’, ‘half-tone dot’ and ‘cinema’ sit alongside more common features such as ‘fish-eye’, ‘miniature’ and ‘sketch’ in the two new models.

Users may also deploy the newly added Magic Frame feature to instantly create formatted postcards or posters. By simply pre-selecting the template available on the camera and then taking your picture, the photo will automatically appear on selected template for original photo display.

In addition, the PL170 feature an HDMI output feature which provides seamless connectivity to the TV, and also come in four colours.

The Samsung 2View new models also include Samsung’s Smart Auto feature, which works for both still and video images. The system analyzes key elements of shots like brightness, colour and motion and automatically adjusts the camera’s settings to get the perfect shot, the statement said.

Smart Auto includes 16 different modes for images and four for video. Users also have the option of controlling advanced features by selecting manual control, according to the statement. – TradeArabia News Service
