The new Self-Imaging Camera: DV300F

Equipped with a 1,5-inch front LCD display, the Samsung DV300F already has a Wi-Fi connection, so users can even instantly upload their images to Facebook, Picasa, Flickr or YouTube. The camera is available in black, silver, navy blue and red, among others. 

Special services

The WB and ST-Series feature Live Panorama, which allows you to pan around while holding down the shutter-release button to create a panoramic image that can be viewed immediately on the large LCD screen. With SmartAuto 2.0, even those who don’t understand the various settings will be able to boast amazing images, as the feature automatically assesses the conditions and selects the most appropriate setting for the situation, whether it’s a fireworks display or a foggy landscape. 
The designers of the WB and ST-Series, as well as the DV300F, also thought of those who wanted to have fun, with Magic Frame and Funny Face providing them with plenty of options. With Magic Frame, anyone can easily enchant themselves on the cover of a magazine, but you also have the option to create your own photo frames; with Picture in Picture, after taking the wallpaper, you only need to delete part of the picture so that the next photo will be in this frame. The Funny Face bends, stretches and curves, but if you just want to double your nose, you can easily do that with the five-position button. And when the machine is moved, Face Tracking preserves the modified image.
A special feature of the DV300F, WB3000F and ST200F is the Motion Photo feature, which, like the latest Hollywood audience successes, freezes the surroundings of a moving subject, such as filming someone jumping high in the park while the surrounding people are sculpturally stiff.
