Whether you're taking a self-portrait in your living room or posing with
friends on vacation, the new PL101 gets it right every time.
Its dynamic Dual Display feature lets you see the shot on the 2.7'' 230k TFT LCD
and 1.5'' Front LCD before taking it, so you can
smile for the camera and be the photographer at the same time. The PL101 can
even automatically frame and take the shot for
you, capturing the moment perfectly. And say goodbye to tripods; its Tilt-back
body was also designed with taking the ultimate
self- portrait in mind. Factor in its Smart Auto feature that uses scene
recognition to make sure you get the photo you're
imagining, and you have a surefire memory maker in your hands.

Easier than Ever to Get a Great Shot
Who needs a professional photographer when you have the PL101? With a Dual
display 2.7'' LCD there's an easier way to take perfect self-portraits. Using
the 1.5'' Front LCD, users can see their self portrait before taking it. And
with a quick button on top, users can easily access front LCD functions like:
Self portrait (Still & Movie), Children mode and Couple shot. Pose with a friend
and Couple Shot will automatically recognise and snap the two of you together
without the need for pressing a button and shaking the camera in the process.

Stylish Design with 7Ë Tilt-back Body
The subtle infusion of colour in the body of the PL101 compliments your style
while the innovative Tilt-back body makes it easier than ever to take self
portraits without the use of a tripod.

Just what you had in mind
You see the image you want in your head. You point the PL101. And Smart
Auto sees it too. This scene recognition technology actually chooses from 16
different settings ranging from landscape to portrait automatically. Then
adjusts for the perfect shot. Whether it's catching your friends on a night on
the town or a waterfall off a mountain. What you get is exactly what you had in
mind. Plus all the credit.

Get closer without moving an inch.
Samsung's 12.2 megapixel camera is the next generation in high-resolution compact cameras. It comes fully equipped with a true-colour filtered 12.2 megapixel CCD and boasts a powerful 3X optical zoom. In addition, this high-resolution camera produces incredibly detailed images that can be used for printing poster-sized photos.

VGA quality video. Now in a compact camera.
If you prefer still shots to movies but want to leave your options open (and
leave your camcorder at home) the PL101 is right for you. You'll get 640 x 480
quality video at 30 frames per second. You even can use the 3x optical zoom to
get up close and vividly personal. And when things get dicey, you can even pause
your recording. You'll give up nothing, except carrying around that extra
camera.

Shake, Rattle or Stroll
Even the tiniest shake can ruin your shot. The PL101's Digital Image
Stabilization solves that. Digital Image Stabilization gives you sharp images no
matter the condition. Whether it's low light, zooming or just a case of plain
old shaky hands, your photos come out sharp and clear. So let the PL101 shake
things up. In a good way.
