Samsung L100 News Release Excerpt:
Samsung take the stylish L-Series to a new level with the launch of the L100.

Las Vegas, NV (January 7, 2008). Samsung is proud to introduce a new model to its compact and stylish L-Series of point-and-shoot digital cameras. The new 8.1 mega pixel L100 joins the popular lineup and combines a number of features commonly found on higher-priced, more advanced models.

It features a high-quality, 3x optical zoom Samsung NV lens and packs a large, 2.5" LCD screen which will automatically brighten or dim depending on the current lighting situation. For reviewing and sharing images with others, the L100 also includes an intuitive Multi-Slide Show. With Mutli-Slide Show, end-users can playback their images using five different slide transitions and can also have their images set to scroll to the camera's preloaded music or their own favorite MP3 files.

For low-light environments and to help minimize the effect of camera shake, the L100 utilizes Digital Image Stabilization to produce sharp, clear images.

The camera also features a number of user-friendly features, including Face Detection, Self Portrait and Auto Red Eye Fix modes. Face Detection technology makes taking pictures of family and friends a snap, as it detects up to nine faces and automatically adjusts focus and exposure to ensure better composition and image quality. Self Portrait mode is a unique functionality that takes the guessing out of taking a self portrait. By utilizing Face Detection technology, the L100 automatically detects the user's face, adjusts focus and exposure, and will only allow a photo to be taken if the subject is centered in the frame. For enhanced versatility, shooters can remove red-eye during image playback, or for even greater convenience, set the cameras to Auto Red Eye Fix to automatically detect and eliminate red-eye from their images as they are taken.

"The new L-Series model is the ideal choice for consumers in search of a slim, stylish and feature packed digital camera," said Stewart Henderson, Vice President of Marketing, Samsung Opto Electronics America. "With the L100, consumers have access to a number of advanced and helpful features, including Face Detection and Self Portrait modes, the ability to shoot at ISO 1600, image stabilization, as well as MPEG-4 video."

Another user-friendly feature of the L100 is Function Description. Designed to reduce the intimidation factor of the cameras' various modes, Function Description automatically provides a brief and easy to understand description of each setting when scrolling through the camera's menus, helping the end-user determine which setting is appropriate for their current shooting scenario. The camera's Photo Help Guide is another intuitive feature incorporated into the digital camera. Photo Help Guide offers the end-user a guided tour of how to take better images as well as easy-to-follow tips instructing them how to obtain excellent results.

The L100 is also equipped with Samsung's advanced i-movie mode, which offers users SVGA resolution (800x592), MPEG-4 video and advanced editing controls. By using the camera's Successive Recording mode, users can pause, and then resume filming of video clips without having to save the clips as individual files. Additionally, users can operate the cameras' optical zooms and engage DIS image stabilization while filming to compensate for camera shake and to reduce blur. The L100 will be available in February 2008 for $199.
