The Mobile World Congress may have ended on February 18th which means that the fever pitch of mobile phone news will subside and probably return back to it’s normal level. However, replacing MWC 2010 news will now be PMA 2010 announcements that is just starting to ramp up.
First off is Samsung Electronics who revealed their AQ100 waterproof digital camera. The portable camera measures a thin 0.78-inches and has been designed for use in water up to 10 feet deep. With its good performance in low lighting conditions and its ability to take bright underwater pictures, this digital camera could come in handy at a poolside party or on a family vacation at a seaside resort.
The AQ100 works just as equally well on land and includes a 5x zoom lens with digital image stabilization to counter the effects of an unsteady hand. Other features include a 12 megapixel digital sensor and a 2.7-inch TFT display screen for framing and reviewing pictures.
Digital video recording is also a staple of the AQ100 with the Samsung camera supporting 720p HD video both in and out of the water. Image stabilization is also a key component of the video capture process but Samsung has also developed a Smart Auto scene recognition technology that will automatically adjust both the video and picture settings to ensure that the perfect shot is captured with the camera.
We should start to see the new Samsung AQ100 waterproof digital camera this spring when it will retail for $199.99.
