CES 2013: Samsung launches a host of new Smart Cameras
Samsung Imaging has expanded its
range of smart compact cameras with slew of new point-and-shoot cameras
at CES 2013 showing that the company is still betting on compact cameras
for its imaging needs. The original Samsung Smart Camera was launched
in 2012, but has now evolved into Smart Camera 2.0.
The reason Samsung calls these smart cameras is because the standout
feature of the system dubbed “Smart Camera 2.0″ has a new AutoShare
function that enables photos to be shared automatically and immediately
with a smartphone using a Smart Camera app for Android and iOS. Users
can share and edit images on their smartphones and this app also works
like a remote viewfinder and a mobile link via Wi-Fi that’s built-in to
the products. A direct “hot key” has been added to all the new Smart
Cameras to take advantage of these features.

The first models that come with Samsung’s Smart Camera 2.0
capabilities are WB250F/WB200F, WB800F, WB30F, DV150F and ST150F. The
new cameras break down into several categories, like the WB series are
long-zoom models equipped with more and bigger lenses; the DV series are
dual-view cameras that come with front-facing screen efficient for
taking self-portraits; and the ST series that offer more stylish cameras
still with pretty decent specs, so there’s a Smart Camera for all types
of photographers.
All the cameras are expected to hit the market during the first
quarter of this year and are reportedly priced in the range of $500 to
$120. It seems Samsung has gone smart camera crazy at CES 2013.
