The pocket-sized camcorder shoots 1920x1080 full HD resolution video (H.264) and 8 MP megapixel still images. Samsung is also adding to its point-and-shoot camcorder lineup with the HMX-E10.
Perfect Portrait System: Beauty Shot / Face Detection / Self Portrait / Smile Shot / Blink Detection/Red-eye Fix. The Samsung PL90 is slated for a September release at a price of US$149.99. In addition the PL90 features Beauty Shot and Smile and Blink detection and an onboard Smart Album which lets you search for images according to date, time and color rather than scrolling through every shot you've taken. The face detection can also track up to twelve different people in the same shot. Though it lacks the forward facing screen of the company's Dual View range, the camera does include a clever Self Portrait function which uses face detection and an audible noise to let you know when you are in frame. The Samsung PL90 features 12.2 mega-pixel stills, 640x480 movie mode at up to 30 fps, 4x Optical Zoom and a 2.7 inch, 230K-pixel LCD display in a compact 3.9” x 2.2” x 0.7” body. While it's not as high-tech as the built-in Wi-Fi featured on the recently announced ST80 camera and we've seen it before on cameras like the Flip Mino, it is such simple addition that I wonder why all cameras don’t have it? I know I would love to throw out my box of cables and adapters. Samsung's just announced PL90 digital camera solves that problem with an in-built USB connector which also allows you to power the battery through your computer, so you can leave your power cord at home too. You get back to your hotel room and you can’t wait to download the pictures onto your computer but you can’t find the cable for the life of you, only to realize you left it sitting on your desk at home.
You have spent the day exploring ancient sites and taking beautiful photos that capture the spirit of the place. So, you just got back to your hotel room after a fabulous first day on your long awaited vacation.
