Description — Samsung NV100 HD
The Samsung NV100 HD combines a 14.7MP sensor on a 1/1.7-inch chip with a refined all-metal body measuring just 95 x 60 x 20 mm and weighing 178g. The 3.0-inch TFT LCD touchscreen at 460,000 dots makes it straightforward to compose shots and navigate the camera's menu system. Autofocus uses Contrast Detection and Face Detection AF, covering multi-area, center, and face detection focus modes.
The camera's Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) works alongside a digital IS option to minimize blur from hand movement. An ISO 80–3200 range provides flexibility across different lighting conditions. Video can be recorded at up to 30fps in 8-bit color, with the same five color profiles — Standard, Vivid, Soft, Forest, and Custom — available for both stills and video.
The built-in pop-up flash handles low-light fill, while HDMI output and USB connectivity cover wired sharing and playback needs. Storage is handled via SD, SDHC, or internal memory, and the SLB-0937 Li-ion battery is rated for approximately 220 shots per the CIPA standard.
