The world of technology is so exciting, we get to see it evolve every
day. For Samsung, technology is a commitment put forward in their products.
Samsung reveals its much awaited Galaxy camera EK-GC 100, a successful
combination of point-and-shoot camera and a smartphone, at Photokina 2012.
Going by the
clear edge of today’s smartphones, overwriting the point-and-shoot cameras at
the imagery division, the Samsung Galaxy EK-GC 100 has combined the interface
of a smartphone and the body of a compact camera. Samsung’s smart camera is
powered by Google’s Android 4.1 Jelly Bean. From the back the camera looks a
lot like a phone. The EK-GC 100 has a 4.8 inch HD LCD touch display which makes
it a capable media player and web-surfing device as well. The camera has a
voice control feature found in some of Samsung’s smart TVs.
The camera
sports a standard ½.3 – inch 16-megapixel BSI CMOS image sensor. It features a
21x optical zoom f/2.8-5.9, 23-480 mm lens, with built-in optical image
stabilisation.
The Galaxy
packs in a 1.4GHz quad-core processor, built-in 3G/4G and Wi-Fi connectivity.
The camera can send images and videos wirelessly to a compatible tablet or
smartphone so they can be uploaded using the data network. The 1,650 mAh
battery provides up to seven hours of battery life while connected.
The camera’s
main purpose for such an innovation is to carry the same Android feel in a
dedicated smart camera. It also features ‘Smart Pro’ technology modes. These
modes make professional photography easy for anyone to achieve. The Galaxy
camera comes with an interesting Smart Content Manager app that will help the
user to create folders, tag people and also identify and recommend bad shots
for deletion.
Samsung
Galaxy is the ultimate experience for people who are used to the touch
experience of smartphones. This camera is applications oriented; Google app
world would be the right place to get all the necessary apps. You can install the
apps and add creativity to your images.
