It delivers a maximum photo resolution of 4000x3000 pixels and supports an ISO range spanning from 64 to 6400, offering flexibility across a range of lighting conditions. The camera features Dual IS, combining both lens-based and in-body image stabilization to help minimize blur during handheld shooting.

Autofocus relies on a contrast detection system with face detection AF across 9 focus points. On the back, a 3.0-inch TFT LCD display with 230,000 dots serves as the primary framing tool, complemented by an electronic viewfinder that also resolves at 230,000 dots. Video capture tops out at 720p at 30fps in 8-bit Standard color.

Burst shooting is supported at up to 7 frames per second. The HZ25W stores images to SD and SDHC cards and is powered by a Samsung SLB-11A Lithium-Ion battery rated for approximately 300 shots per charge. Connectivity is handled via USB, with no Wi-Fi or Bluetooth on board.

The body is constructed from plastic with metal accents and measures 116 x 83 x 91 mm at a weight of 428g, with no weather sealing. A built-in pop-up flash rounds out the feature set, making this a self-contained travel-oriented compact.
