New Samsung GALAXY S4 Offers 10x Optical Zoom
Samsung today officially announced the launch of the Samsung GALAXY S4 zoom, a new device which combines the style of the latest GALAXY S4 smartphone with advanced photographic capabilities.
The GALAXY S4 zoom is combining 10x Optical Zoom, 16 Mega Pixel CMOS Sensor, OIS and Xenon Flash with the very latest Samsung GALAXY S4 technology.
Through the new Zoom Ring you acn access the GALAXY S4 zoom's key features. When you're in the middle of a phone call and you see something you absolutely have to share, a quick twist of the Zoom Ring will activate the In-Call Photo Share feature, letting you capture and send an image directly via MMS to whoever you are talking to.
For easy camera navigation, the Zoom Ring can be used to activate the Quick Launch and Shortcut features, giving you instant access to multiple camera modes including Auto, Gallery and Smart Mode with a simple twist.
The Zoom Ring also changes conventional camera zoom controls. Optical zoom control replaces traditional dials and buttons with smooth digital controls.
The compact GALAXY S4 zoom?s 10x Optical Zoom and 16MP BSI CMOS Sensor along with the built-in Optical Image Stabilizer (OIS) help you shoot high-quality photos and video.
Photo Suggest connects you to huge libraries of images taken by fellow photographers, to help you find and compose your best shots anywhere in the world. Photo Suggest can even direct you to the ideal nearby location which will give you the vantage point you need for that perfect photo.
The GALAXY S4 zoom also features Samsung?s Smart Mode, so you can stop worrying about settings and start taking professional-quality artistic shots. Simply choose from a series of pre-set modes and the camera will automatically adjust to ensure you capture the best photo possible. Use Drama Shot to merge continuous shots of moving objects into a single composed image, or Action Freeze to instantly capture high-speed action. If you aren't sure which Smart Mode to select, the Smart Mode Suggest feature can assess the scene for you and provide a short list of the best options for your consideration based on surrounding factors such as light levels, focal length, or face detection, ensuring you always get the best shot you want.
Running on Android Jelly Bean 4.2, the GALAXY S4 zoom boasts many of the same features as the recently launched GALAXY S4, including Touchwiz.
Story Album lets you arrange all of your images and videos into one timeline to share with friends. You can also edit images and even order prints directly from the device through a partnership withblurb. If you'd rather transfer your images to your laptop or tablet for safe keeping, Samsung Link lets you do so quickly with just the touch of a button. Alternatively, you can sync all of your data in your own personal cloud through HomeSync.
The GALAXY S4 zoom also features the new Samsung Hub, where you can search, download and enjoy entertainment at the touch of a button.
