Here comes yet another point-and-shoot digital camera – Samsung PL200 with 14.2-MP and a stylish case. Combining the ability to record HD videos and features like wide LCD screen and powerful optics, the Samsung PL200 is sure to be one of the most sought-after cameras in the market.

The Samsung PL200, like other Samsung digicams, gives easy-to-use functionalities, which are rarely found in any other camera of its kind.

The Samsung PL200 targets that section of the consumer market that desires an indulging digicam experience without getting too much into the difficulty of the technological part of it.

The users of the PL200 are also provided with a detailed automatic control suite that they can run even after being in their safe zones, out of the nitty-gritty’s of technology.

With 3.9 x 2.3 x 0.83 inches dimensions, the Samsung PL200 falls under the category of sleek digicams. However, its 3 inches LCD display is wide enough to proffer a better and clearer view of videos and pictures. Also, this allows better framing of the subjects when you are capturing a group photo. The forte of the camera is the lens with 7x optical zoom and 35mm focal length.

The dual-image stabilization attribute of Samsung PL200 lends to the optimum quality of the images. Thanks to this attribute, the images are blur-free, clear and detailed. Samsung PL200 can also record 720p hi-def video at 30fps. The captured-video is stored in H.264 format. So, the recording capacity increases to 3-times that in case of MJPEG videos.

Samsung PL200 also comes embedded with the unique and intelligent scene recognition feature that automatically selects the most suitable scene mode for your image or video depending upon the shooting environment, the subject and other such parameters.

Some of the other rare features are: Beauty Shot that produces your better looking image right at the base, Face Detection that automatically spots the subject, Smile Shot that lets you know when exactly to smile and Blink Detection that relieves you from the fear that you might have closed your eyes while the picture was being clicked. Also, Smart Album manages your captured images.

Samsung PL200 will hit the market in September 2010 at an estimated price of $179.99.
