Samsung Digital Camera SH100 review
We will start our review with a nice to hear news. It seems that Android developed an application for the Samsung Digital Camera SH100.
At first sight Samsung Digital Camera SH100 looks like a normal standard camera but this device has 14.2 Megapixels, a 5x optical zoom and it uses MicroSD and SDHDC cards.
This sounds good but why is this camera different from the other digital cameras on the market? Well, it is simple: first you need to download the associated application for your smartphone and this will allow you to control the camera over WiFi using the phone.
You can take pictures and the application will allow you to view your photos afterwards.
The Samsung Digital Camera SH100 has some great features. For example, some of us have shaky hands, and when we try to take a picture this comes all blurry but those at Samsung fixed that with the SH100 camera. SH100 has digital image stabilization and it can record movies at a resolution of 1280×720 at 30 fps. Also the camera has Samsung’s AllShare and by using this you can share pictures with other supported devices that are on your network.
The WiFi comes also in handy when you want to backup files or transfer images wireless and upload photos to social network websites.
By using the free application from Android you can adjust settings view the image that is on the screen of the SH100 digital camera and all of this is possible from your smartphone.
At 199.99 dollars I think this is a must have device.
