Samsung Digital Imaging Launch 2011 – “Life, from All Angles” – Samsung Multiview MV800

When I was told to attend the Samsung Digital Imaging Launch 2011 about a week back, I thought it was just all about the MV800 Multi-View point & shoot camera.

A quick Google reviewed some pictures & interesting specs; and I thought it was a nice camera to have; something in continuity from their ST700 and PL120 range – where it’s all about dual-view & the ability to take (front facing) “cam-whoring” pictures of yourself.
Taking it up a notch, the MV800 has a Flip-out Touch Display that allow users to frame the perfect shot or portrait, from any angle.

I certainly didn’t expect to step into a cinema hall & saw a collection of not 1, but 4 new cameras plus an ultra affordable camcorder on display!

Themed “Life, from All Angles”, the launch featured the groundbreaking Samsung Multiview MV800, pioneering a new “MultiView” category to enable today’s camera users to take the perfect shot or portrait from all angles.

Both the cameras above has 3D photo taking capabilities too, showing again that Samsung is certainly keeping up the current trends of photography. In addition to that, Live and Action Panorama modes enables you to take “wider” and more detailed shots!

While I’m still tinkling with videography, and so far been very happy with the Samsung Galaxy S2 video taking capabilities (I promise my drifting video will be up by this weekend ok, work’s been crazy!), Samsung tempts me with yet another compact but powerful camcorder. Ok la, I admit the most tempting part was the price of RM699.

Good launch venue. So comfortable & the tiered sitting ensured that all of us could see what’s going on at the front. I wish Samsung has thrown in complimentary movie that day too! Hahaa.a….:P

      I havent either! LOL.
      I can’t wait to get my hands on the HTC Evo. Will be getting a review unit next week too.

    Some are very old and valuable, not just in currency either, but in
    sentimental value. Insert the free HP Photo Editor available to download here which makes it
    really easy to upload your logos, images, and
    photos. You also have to ensure that all the decorations are child safe
    and that they match the overall style of the room.
