Samsung introduces i8 digital camera to KSA market


Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. a market leader in consumer electronics, announced its newest camera in the Saudi market, the i8, a multimedia digital camera supporting various functions other than shooting, such as watching movies through the PMP, MP3 music playback, travel information and text viewer.

'Over the years, Samsung has built and reaffirmed its reputation for pairing groundbreaking technological advancements with innovative and cutting-edge designs,' said Inamullah Butt, Marketing Manager Samsung Saudi Arabia. 'In order to keep with this tradition, the i8 design inspiration was a smooth round pebble; that each customer would like to feel it in his hand'.

A Samsung i8 is as ultra small as a business card, but it provides excellent camera capabilities.

8 Mega pixels with a high definition image sensor is fitted, and the optical 3x zoom inner lens method enables one to get shooting ready without any sound when turning on the power.

The i8 is equipped with a 2.7in (6.86cm) high definition LCD, and shows images which have been shot. SVGA size video recording is possible, and the optical zoom can be used while recording.

The i8 has also optimized camera shake correction using an enforced image processing technology.

Shaking is minimized in shooting situations where there is a poor light source, through the support of the ISO 1600, which is high speed sensitivity shooting.

The DIS (Digital Image Stabilization) function, Samsung's unique technology, that can display natural colors in a dark environment without using the flash, is also a main feature of the i8.

The i8 displays a variety of other functions such as the Photo Style Selector function that enables one to shoot various selected styles of pictures as they are in preview mode, a Colour Filter function that turns unwanted areas into a black and white tone and a Smart Tools function that can achieve various fun pictures in an environment without a PC and satisfies the creative nature of photography.

The Samsung i8 is available in 4 different colours suitable for the younger generation namely white, black, blue and pink.
