February 22, 2007 (PRLEAP.COM) Technology News
February 2007 (Secaucus, NJ) – Samsung today announced the launch of the super slim 7 mega pixel L77 digital still camera. In combining a sleek compact body less than one inch thick with an impressive 7x optical zoom lens, Samsung has once again set new standards in style and technology. The L77 offers an extremely compact and elegant design, combined with a host of advanced features and functionalities, making it the ideal camera for those looking for the latest in sleek design and premium digital compact camera performance.

With shutter speeds that reach up to an effective 1/1,250 sec and an ISO equivalent of 1600, users will be able to take advantage of the L77’s high resolution in any situation, ranging from landscapes at dusk to fast action sports photography. The L77 has an elegant metal body and features a bright 2.5” TFT LCD for bright and clear viewing of images. It also comes equipped with Samsung’s ASR (Advanced Shake Reduction) image stabilization system to minimize the effects of hand shake and ensure the best shots are captured even in dimly lit conditions.

The L77 can easily capture moving action and is able to record in MPEG-4 at VGA quality (30 fps). When activated, its Movie Stabilizer mode enables users to compensate for unwanted camera movement and subject blur. In addition, the L77’s Continuous Movie mode allows its operator to pause, then resume filming of video clips without having to save the clips as individual files. For added convenience, editing film clips and photographs is possible through the L77’s in-built editing capabilities, making it simple to trim, resize, or add effects right on the camera without having to wait until you’re back at a home computer.

The Samsung L77 - the World’s slimmest 7 Mega pixel/7x optical zoom lens camera - will be available in April 2007 at an MSRP of $399.99.
