For consumers looking for a bit more power in a point-and-shoot camera, Samsung has brought out the 16-megapixel ST6500.
Samsung touts the ST6500 as a "stylish" camera, which I suppose is true. The all-black exterior seems rather typical for a pocket camera, but I guess black never goes out of style.
Nevertheless, one of the key design points is the camera’s body, which is curved around the lens and angled at seven degrees for a more ergonomic fit.
From there, we have some above average specs:
- 26mm wide-angle lens
- 5x optical zoom
- Optical and Digital Image Stabilization
- 3-inch LCD touch screen with Smart Touch 3.0 user interface
- 1/2.33-inch CCD image sensor
- 720p HD video recording and playback
- Smart Auto focus (Still/Movie)
- Smart Filter 2.0
- Perfect Portrait System
The ST6500 will also be on shelves this March for $229.99.
