Review: Samsung Galaxy Camera

When this galaxy first release at  Malaysia on November (if I not mistaken)

it doesn't excites me at all.

Perhaps the fact that I prefer brand such as Canon or Sony for digital camera

But I think Samsung try to be creative and innovative by combining camera and android in one gadget

which also not a bad try since people nowadays love to take picture and shared in instantly through instagram(including me follow my insta u can find it at the right side bar hehe), foursquare and also on facebook.

so the thing about this Samsung Galaxy Camera is you can insert micro sim but you cannot make call because it doesn't support for GSM voice communication.

Sebab tu lah kalau kamu beli SGC ni selalunya dia didatangkan dengan pakej-pakej internet dari hotlink, digi 

mahupun celcom.

so lets go through the physical outline of SGC

THE BODY

if you are a guy, the cam look smaller

when u are a lady, the cam look bigger

berat pulak, it is heavier than S3(133g), Note 2 (183g) but lighter than tab which is around (345++g).

and yeah camera ni ada flash.

THE DISPLAY SCREEN

if u want to know what is the difference between Super AMOLED and Super Clear LCD

LEFT: Super AMOLED

RIGHT: Super LCD Plus

AMOLED has a few advantages which it is better under the sunlight compared to super LCD.

and Super AMOLED also use up less energy to save your battery power.

got it from wiki answer. hope it helps.

and also talking about the screen size. its size exactly match Galaxy S3.

which is also 720 x 1280 pixels, 4.8 inches (~306 ppi pixel density)
and it is the biggest viewfinder in any camera.

and do u want me to talk about corning gorilla glass 2 again?

take a look at this, and dont forget to watch the video. 

Kenapa Note II bukan S3?

THE MEMORY STORAGE

no need to explain about this
don't worry about the memory as SGC ni ada dropbox 50GB storage

and camera ni jugak support bluetooth :)

THE CAMERA ITSELF

haha sekarang mari kita berbicara tentang kamera.

here is a few comparison for SGC, Nokia 808 PureView 38MP, Canon 5D Mark II (21MP DSLR)

and this is the video comparison for 5 different 1080p mobile phone.

IPhone 5 Good Light

IPhone 5 Low Light

SGC Good Light

SGC Low Light

Sony Xperia V Good Light

Nokia Lumia Good Light

LG PRADA Good Light

overall I can conclude that SGC cam's is not so bad but I prefer Nokia Lumia 808 :))))

even sony Xperia V pun xboleh beat Nokia Lumia 808.

but then Samsung Galaxy Camera is not a phone, its a android camera.

So there are 3 different camera settings.

1.Auto mode: the easiest, with 1 click kamu boleh dapatkan the best pictures dah, lepas tu boleh pilih pelbagai photo filter cthnya, sephia, lumia mcm dalam instagram boleh choose terus.

2.Smart mode: the medium, you will have 15 diferrent camera presets kalau dah ada SGC ni boleh lah berlagak mcm photographer professional sebab with help of 15 different presets ni kamu boleh buat effect macam-macam. Bagi yang sakan menggambar tu boleh la beli camera ni. Xsusah pun buat ni, tap tap dah siap. Ada jugak 'night mode' for clear and bright picture at night serta 'continues shots' which take 20 photos in 5 seconds. Also with 'rich tone' xpayah takut bergambar against bright light then gambar kamu jadi gelap, sebab it help to balance out the exposure differences. And it has sunset mode designed especially for those yang suka ambik gmbr sunset.

amacam, cool kan?

3. Expert mode: for experto, bila kamu tap pada expert mode ni, akan keluar 'virtual lens'. Dimana bagi yang selalu bermain dengan DSLR tu paham la. Kamu boleh adjust shutter speed, aperture, dan ISO.

dan yang sangat membezakan SGC ni dgn smartphone yang lain adalah

the astounding 21x Zoom Lens dilengkasi dengan lens f = 4.1 - 86.1mm (35mm film equivalent: 23 - 483mm) dan 2.8 (W) - 5.9 (T).

Owh before I forgot. SGC pun ada 'best face' di mana if u take group picture it will take a sequence of 5 picture and everyone can choose their best face. jadi xda la isu mata tertutup, hidung terkembang atau senyum tersenget hehe. and  also the camera record slow motion video. 

THE FEATURES

Yeah wow I'm impressed by the chipset haha and

 also the CPU 1.4Ghz which is xpayah risau pasal lagging dan battery heat.

SCG ni macam smartphone jugak, kamu boleh download di playstore,

main game, surf facebook, play music, videos dan etc

dan salah satu cool features dia adalah the sharing.

kalu bab-bab sharing ni, selalunya kita kena tick satu-satu gmbar ni.

Tapi kali ni Samsung telah mengubah gaya tick and share dengan 

'Share Shots' di mana open Bluetooth >> connect with the device(1 or more).

Then bila dah snap gambar automatically gambar tu akan keluar di screen SGC dan juga mobile si kawan.

yeah mobile, xsemestinya kena SGC jugak.

and yeah pasal managing, xpayah connect di laptop. Macam smartphone lah jugak, just click and drag the photo in 1 folder.

THE BATTERY

I think most of the user will be upset about the battery.

the battery life is limited enough and you guys probably should consider limiting the packet data and wireless connectivity.

I heard that u can only snap about 150 pic or record 10 minutes HD video then the battery will drain out.

*sigh sayangnya. Camera dah best dah, tapi battery pulak slack.

harap-harap lepas ni samsung will come out with new solution.

kalau ada salah silap sila lah tegur saya.

have a good day people.
