Samsung i6 Digimax PMP Digital Camera

May 18 2007

Want a digital camera that can play media as well? No. Me either. Until I saw the Samsung i6 Digimax which does a lot more than just take cool photos.

What is the Samsung i6 Digimax PMP
This is a state of the art digital camera with 6 megapixels shots. However, it also is a Personal Media Player (PMP) and it can play music and video files right there on the camera. This is pretty cool.

The thing I really love about this camera, as usual, is that it is so small and thin. The slim design is pretty good for a 6 megapixel but because this one is a PMP it is even more impressive.

The Features of the Samsung i6 Digimax PMP
DPreview.com has the full feature list with the main ones being:

The i6 is only 18.5mm thick, and has an enhanced grip, using a unique curved design ensuring a steady shot when taking pictures. Thin and striking enough to take anywhere, the i6 is style and portability in one camera.

The Digimax i6 has enhanced multimedia capabilities with upgraded MP3 and the addition of a personal media player function. Play back MP3 music files and also video files, using the conversion software supplied with the camera. The user can even take pictures whilst listening to music.

The i6 also has ASR (Advanced Shake Reduction). This algorithm reduces the effects of camera shake and helps the user take clear and natural pictures indoors or in dark conditions without using flash. The i6 also has its own movie editing function, 1cm super-macro, and a cradle for charging and image transfer.

I think Samsung is really taking over with some of their new products. As I metioned last week, they were the number one seller in the USA last year for a certain type of product. This will continue to grow as far as I can tell.
