London, Nov 29 (PRINTWORDS NEWS) -
A gadget that has become incredibly popular with people from all age groups in the present times is the digital camera. The present generation digital cameras have brought photography within the reach of the masses. They have become quite affordable and the market is replete with a lot of models from various manufacturers. Therefore, the companies are trying to pack as many features in possible in their models to woo the users. There are some digital cameras that also perform other tasks that people generally do not expect from a point and shoot imaging device. Samsung has been a pioneer in this aspect.
The ST1000 compact digital camera from the stable of Samsung is a multipurpose device that does a lot more than taking snaps and recording video footage. The model is not exactly svelte but it is not too bulky either. The brushed metal finish and rugged exterior of the camera is sure to turn heads when you pop it out from your pocket in a get together event. The back of the camera has a large 3.5 inch Touchscreen. The interface of the display is responsive and it is fairly easy to use. Samsung has made the on screen menu straightforward and it would not intimidate the novice users.
It has integrated Bluetooth for easy photo transfer. What’s more, this camera has WiFi for web access. It can send pictures as email attachment or upload them to online photo sharing sites. Of course, one needs to locate a Wireless access zone for that. Its QWERTY keyboard is ideal for emailing. As if Wireless features are not enough, Samsung has also packed in GPS navigation in this compact model. The technology works well in general but in areas with a lot of buildings and trees the signal reception suffers to an extent.
As a camera the ST 1000 performs on par with the other models available in the market. It has a total of 15 scene selection modes. The Face detection system works well too. The photography enthusiasts will be a tad disappointed with this model as it lacks a wide-angle zoom. However, if you are looking for a feature rich digital camera that doubles up as a web access device and navigation assistant, buy this model.
