Remember the Essentials

Sufficient memory is not included. Don't get caught without memory, get a high-capacity memory card.

The Samsung CL65 Digital Camera (Red) is a high-resolution 12 megapixel digital camera with a 5x zoom lens that has many special features. The camera has a built-in GPS with geotagging capability. This feature allows you to always keep track of where a photograph was taken. You can use the same geographic information to manage large volumes of photos on your computer's hard drive. The Wi-Fi feature gives you the capability to e-mail your photos directly from the camera or upload your pictures and HD videos to the Web, without using your computer.

The Samsung CL65 allows you to connect your camera to a computer, cell phone, or any other Bluetooth device. These unique features, along with a high 3200 ISO, image stabilization, Smart Face Recognition, Scene Recognition, and the large 3.5" touch screen makes this compact camera easy and fun to use.

Geotagging
With the CL65's built-in GPS and geotagging capability, you will never forget where that photo was shot. You can use the same geographic information to easier manage large volumes of photos on your memory card or computer hard drive.
Bluetooth
Whether you connect from your camera to your computer, or to your best friend's phone, the CL65's built-in Bluetooth technology keeps it simple and fun. Tap into your other Bluetooth-enabled devices to play a quick slide show on your flat screen, or share snapshots and movies with anybody within range.
Wi-Fi
Email your photos directly from your camera, or upload your pictures and videos to the Web without using your computer. The CL65 makes it possible, and as simple as you can imagine. Now when you see the perfect pair of shoes for your friend's wedding, you can upload it to Facebook, Flickr, Photobox, or Picasa in an instant. Or when your cat does that hilarious back flip again, you can share it with ease on YouTube. Wi-Fi is only available where verification is not required.
HD Quality Video
You'll get 720p HD quality video at 30 frames per second. And a H.264 recording time 4x longer than MJPEG video. You even can use the 5x optical zoom to get up close and personal.
High Sensitivity (ISO 3200)
An ISO of 3200 delivers crystal-clear indoor shots even in low light and sharp details on fast-moving objects.
Digital Image Stabilization
Even the tiniest shake can ruin your shot. With the CL65's Advanced Dual Image Stabilization, you get the sharpest images even in low light, using a close zoom, or even with shaky hands.
Smart Face Recognition
With its Smart Face recognition technology, the CL65 knows up to 20 of your friends and family. It automatically focuses on them first, making sure the most important subjects are always crystal clear in your image.
Smart Gesture UI
Tilt it to one side, and the Samsung CL65's Smart Gesture UI will start a slide show without a single touch. With the CL65's built-in Acceleration Sensor, your gestures work as your commands. Manage camera functions, rotate or delete photos, create special slide shows - without lifting a finger.
Frame Guide
The CL65's Frame Guide let's you set up the shot then hand off the camera to a friend, and your frame guide is there for them to follow.
Scene Recognition Technology
Scene recognition technology chooses from 16 different settings ranging from landscape to portrait automatically, and makes adjustments for the perfect shot
Recycle Bin
Now, the shot you didn't really mean to delete is saved in the CL65's recycle bin. You can rest easy, because every deleted image is automatically stored in a temporary folder just in case you have second thoughts.

Comments about Samsung CL65 Digital Camera (Red):

If you aren't spoiled by REAL camera makers such as canon, nikon, olympus which have 80+ years of experience each, then you may love this camera. The features are great, far ahead of any other P&Shoot on the market. Everything works great, except the GPS can sometimes take a while to locate your position, which means, fast turn-on-and-shoot photos will not have the GEO-Tag info. If you leave it on for 1-2 mins it will find your location and you'll have the tag.

The biggest problem with this camera is IMAGE QUALITY. All the features int he world, (this camera has them) are useless without good image quality. The quality is good at the wide end of the zoom, but poor at the max zoom range. It also struggles to focus at the long end, or at any point in the zoom range in dark areas.
