  • 4.0 Mega-Pixel High Resolution Digital Camera
  • An Outstanding 12X Zoom (3X Optical Zoom & 4X Digital Zoom)
  • A World Superior Schneider Lens

Samsung Techwin (President & CEO Joong-Koo Lee, www.samsungtechwin.com) will launch the Digimax V4, a 4.0 mega-pixel, high-resolution, high-performance digital camera, equipped with a Schneider lens. With this product launched, Samsung Techwin sets to penetrate the high-resolution digital camera market all over the world.

The 4.0 mega-pixel Digimax V4 features an advanced multi-purpose 12X zoom consisting of a 3X optical zoom (focal length of 38mm~113mm in a 35mm film camera) and a 4X digital zoom. The small and compact Digimax V4 is housed in a stylish body, giving it its luxurious and elegant appearance.

The Digimax V4 uses a 4.0 mega-pixel, high-resolution CCD that provides vivid picture images and renders accurate color tones. It is ideal for general pictures as well as for high-quality printed results. In addition, the Digimax V4 uses a Schneider lens, recognized throughout the world as being one of the leading quality lenses available, producing crystal clear images.

The Digimax V4 is the world's first camera to use 9 different power sources. These include AA Alkaline, AA Lithium, Ni-Mn, Ni-Zn, CR-V3, and rechargeable Ni-MH, Ni-Cd, I-Pack batteries, as well as a dedicated Li-ion battery.

The Digimax V4's Super Macro function makes it possible for users to capture images from as little as 6cm away from the subject. Accurate focusing control has been made possible through precision design and lens cutting skills.

The Digimax V4 personalizes camera settings to work for each user. The "My Set" function lets users choose and save 3 favorite camera settings, such as image size, quality and ISO. This enables users to achieve the great results they personally want, in many different shooting conditions, with just one touch of a button.

A number of useful additional functions include : designing your own loading screen by quickly resizing a chosen picture to appear as a camera loading screen, and powerful manual shooting, which enables you to achieve the same quality of images as a professional photographer. The Digimax V4 also has an enhanced movie clip & voice recording function for capturing movie clips with sound and for adding audio to still images. Another useful feature is the One-touch play back function, for reviewing captured images straight away, even when the camera's power has been turned off. The 1.5" color TFT LCD monitor is controlled automatically, or can be adjusted manually to allow for the clearest vision in different surrounding environments. The convenient user interface makes the Digimax V4 very user-friendly.

The introduction of the Digimax V4 completes the varied range of digital cameras established by Samsung Techwin. Samsung Techwin manufactures a wide variety of digital cameras from 1.3 mega-pixel to 4 mega-pixels, and is set to greatly increase its market share internationally.
