12 MP CCD
High resolution images, outstanding quality. The SAMSUNG HZ15W delivers nothing short of brilliant images - even for super-sized photos - with a true-color filtered 12 megapixel CCD.

24 mm ultra-wide lens
Whether you’re indoors or out, snapping a landscape or friends around a table, the 24 mm ultra wide angle lens gives you a wider shooting range from a shorter distance. Easily capture images of beautiful landscapes and entire buildings—not something you can do with a standard 35 mm. The 24 mm ultra wide angle is a perfect marriage of advanced versatility with the convenience of a stylish, compact camera.

Dual Image Stabilization
Twice the technology for crisp, clear images. Dual Image Stabilization eliminates the blur caused by camera shake and delivers clear, crisp images every time, even under difficult lighting situations. Integrating the best lens shifting mechanisms of Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) with the sophisticated algorithms of Digital Image Stabilization (DIS), Dual Image Stabilization, another superior SAMSUNG innovation, corrects even the tiniest of shakes.

Schneider-KREUZNACH lens with 10x optical zoom
The high-quality optics in this Schneider-KREUZNACH lens delivers crystal-clear images with every shot, and the 10x optical zoom gets you up close and personal with incredible detail. The bright F2.8 lens offers even resolution from the center to the edges. For more natural-looking pictures, each lens surface is multi-coated to minimize the "ghost" or "flare" phenomenon and make sure you get your best shot. Plus, a slim, efficient design makes the mounted inner zoom lens easier to use and carry.

3.0" LCD screen
It’s easy to take pictures with the large 3.0" LCD. And with improved contrast and color reproduction you’ll be able to take and edit your photos effortlessly.

Record HD movies
Experience Full HD quality with your camera. Capture images and record videos in high definition - then watch them on your HDTV in high-quality 720p resolution.

"The zoom lens and picture quality for a camera this size is awesome. The 10x zoom in a camera this small is nice. It is small enough to fit into your pants pocket.

"[...].Samsung is a different story with the first camera sent to me. They are not easy to work with, could not even find the serial number to their own camera to fix a problem I had with the first one sent. NO easy way to Email customer support. I hope the camera is better than their support. "
