Samsung Techwin widens its 5 mega-pixel digital camera portfolio with the DIGIMAX A55W
The DIGIMAX A55W provides 5x digital zoom in addition to a 4.8x optical zoom, achieving 24x total zoom when used at the same time. It also provides 8x zoom during playback, so you can really check the detail of the shots you have taken. The DIGIMAX A55W is equipped with a large 2.5″ 200k high-resolution LCD to offer superb image quality for both photography and image playback.
For better movies, the DIGIMAX A55W supports MPEG-4, the high-compression high-quality video format that can record for up to 3-4 times longer than traditional video formats used in other digital cameras. The DIGIMAX A55W can even be used as a camcorder since it can record more than 1 hour of high quality video recording time if you are using a 256 MB memory card. With video recording in VGA (640×480) at 30 fps, the DIGIMAX A55W provides a smoother movie that you can even watch on your TV.
The DIGIMAX A55W has movie stabilization, which helps maintain steady recording of a subject by means of automatic detection and correction of lateral and vertical camera movements of the camera. The continuous video recording feature of the DIGIMAX A55W, which is based on exclusive Samsung technology, allows you to pause and resume video recording as desired and merge those multiple movie clips into a single file at a later time. You can press the Pause button to pause or resume recording.
