further, with a wireless auxiliary lens. Also, the Sports
Camcorders are multipurpose 6-in-1 devices; consumers can use
each as a camcorder, still camera, web cam, MP3 player, voice

"Samsung created a new camcorder category in 2005 with the
original hard drive based Sports Camcorder. This product remains
as the only product of its kind on the market today," said Aaron
Novak, marketing manager for camcorders, Samsung Electronics
America. "This year's models add longer battery life, expanded
storage capacity and enhanced movie quality to an award-winning
design. They provide consumers with a quality picture and the
flexibility that fits their active lifestyles. We are proud to
introduce the wireless sports camcorder as the next step in
demonstrating Samsung's ability to quickly turn consumer
functionality desires into reality. In 2005 our customers and
retail partners said 'wouldn't it be great if this was
wireless,' and here it is."
The SC-X205WL and SC-X210WL Sports Camcorder feature a wireless
auxiliary lens that allows adventurous users to film at
distances of up to 15 feet from the camcorder via a radio
frequency (RF) signal. For example, consumers can leave the main
unit in their backpack as they film footloose, wireless and
hands-free. The SC-X205WL and SC-X210WL offer 512MB and 1GB of
built-in flash memory, respectively, and an improved-life
battery to maximize usability time. Made specifically with the
outdoor traveler and extreme sports devotee in mind, the unit is
compact, rugged and fits easily into pockets, backpacks and
other gear. The unique auxiliary lens module comes with an
armband and headband for added hands free convenience.
The MPEG4 ASP compression format provides increased-quality
movie clip capture, and Samsung's electronic image stabilizer
helps minimize blur. A 680K CCD and 10x optical/100x digital
zoom allow consumers to capture their athletic feats in superb
clarity. Users can set up and view a shot through its 2.0" LCD
and grab additional footage or stills off of an SD or MMC memory
card. As a versatile multi-function device for the active
consumer, the SC-X210L doubles as an MP3 player, voice recorder
and data storage device. The unit also includes a carrying case
and webcam module.
The award-winning SC-X210L Sports Camcorder offers all the
features of its wireless counterparts minus the wireless
capability. This unit has the added attraction unlike its 2005
predecessor, where its auxiliary lens is powered by the same
battery as the main unit, allowing for extended battery life.
The SC-X205L also features Samsung's unique hands-free
additional lens and a high-capacity battery for additional
extreme shooting time. The unit has 512 MB of built-in memory
with an SD/MMC memory slot for additional storage capacity. A
680K CCD and 10x optical/100x digital zoom offer superior video
capture quality and the built-in electronic image stabilizer
helps keep the video sharp and in focus.
The SC-X205L is currently available at $479.99.
