It's small enough to carry around everywhere without sacrificing much of anything. The Samsung HZ35W offers a lot of versatility from its wide-angle long zoom to its wide range of shooting options. Again, though, if you have no interest in geotagging and can be happy with a modest 230k pixel resolution LCD, then check out the HZ30W. On paper, the Samsung HZ35W looks good, even at a price of US$350. The camera also offers a special Beauty mode, which helps alleviate imperfections by softening the skin. Other people photography options include Face Recognition, which gives priority to faces you register, as well as Smile Shot and Blink (the camera takes a second shot if the person's eyes are closed in the first shot). Of course, HD video is available as well, with the highest resolution topping out at 1,280 x 720 at 30fps.Īt this point, Face Detection is a standard feature on almost all compact cameras and the Samsung HZ35W is no exception. Image adjustment options and the ability to apply certain styles to photos are complemented by a few creative effects including Vignette, Miniature, and Fish-eye. The combination of automatic and manual controls also makes the Samsung HZ35W a good learning tool for those who want to amp up their photography skills. Preset scene modes, Auto, Program AE, and Smart Auto are ideal for point-and-shoot simplicity, while shutter-priority, aperture-priority, and manual exposure options will appeal to more experienced users. The Samsung HZ35W also offers a solid feature set that is designed to span the needs and experience levels of snapshooters and enthusiasts alike. Both of these features set the Samsung HZ35W apart from its near-twin, but less expensive sibling the HZ30W (WB600), which has no GPS and is equipped with a 3-inch, 230K pixel LCD.
In addition to the 15x optical zoom lens, other hot features include built-in GPS with a map display and a 3-inch, 614K-pixel AMOLED (Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode) screen for framing and viewing images. Shutter speeds range from 16 seconds to 1/2,000 second, so you can take long exposures in low light or stop action.
Dual image-stabilization, optical and digital, helps steady the Schneider-Kreuznach lens, while an aperture selection of f/3.2-f/11.6 at wide-angle and f/5.8-f/12 at telephoto allows for depth-of-field control. That's more than wide enough to capture great landscapes and group shots of family and friends and grab distant shots that would otherwise be out of reach.
It's small enough to be pocketable yet is equipped with a wide-angle, 15x optical zoom that delivers an impressive focal range of 24-360mm (35mm equivalent). Long zoom compact cameras are emerging as one of the latest trends in digital photography and the 12-megapixel Samsung HZ35W (Samsung WB650 in some markets) fits neatly into that category.
