Samsung 7 & 10 MP Cameras

Today Samsung announced two new "S" Series cameras for their Premium Digimax line. The two cameras, a 7MP S700 and a 10MP S1000, feature a 2.4" LCD and 3x optical zoom.

These two cameras also support MPEG-4, and the S1000 can record over an hour of VGA video at 30fps with a 256MB card. Samsung has also enabled movie editing functions with these two lines, making it easy to playback or save parts of movie clips to be saved as still images.

Like other digital cameras, these models include 7 scene modes, for automatic shooting, as well as a "Special Effects" mode for the more creative user. Some of the special effects include Sepia, color filters, black and white, photo frames, and composite shots, which allow a user to take 2 - 4 images and combine them into one file.

The Digimax S700 retails for $250 and the Digimax S1000 retails for $350. Both will be available in August.

With this announcement, it looks like Samsung is helping consumer cameras become closer and closer to the amateur professional range.
