The Samsung Maxima 170GLM QD camera has a high-definition lens with a quick zoom in and out. The auto macro lens reaches a magnification of 4.5x (38-170mm) and gives you a wide range of shooting distances. You can choose from six fully automatic shooting modes to fit the situation such as basic automatic, snap shooting for moving subjects, portrait zoom for a constant subject, continuous shooting for snapping several photos in a sequence, spot shooting for focusing on one subject in a crowd, and landscape shooting where focus is set to infinity.
The camera's passive autofocus system is easy to use and responsive--when pressing the shutter down halfway a green light will let you know if the subject is in focus. It also switches to macro mode whenever the subject is four feet or closer. The auto exposure control and programmed shutter speeds open up many photographic possibilities. The flash has standard red eye, on, and off modes as well as backlight control and slow shutter.
The LCD on top of the camera contains useful information like shooting mode, exposures left, zoom ratio, flash setting, and self-timer. Film loading is completely automatic and the roll rewinds on its own when finished. You can label your photos with 7 different messages and 5 date/time imprints. The camera comes with its own camera case and runs on a 3-volt lithium battery.
Product Description:
This camera is exceptionally easy to operate: six fully automatic shooting modes are easily adjusted, using the mode dial switch on top of the camera, which is similar to dials often found on digital cameras. The modes include basic automatic, snap shooting (for active subjects), portrait zoom (which maintains a constant subject size within the frame), continuous shooting (for photos in sequence), spot shooting (for one subject in a crowd), and landscape shooting (for focus set to infinity). Its SHD (Samsung High Definition) 38-170mm auto macro lens zooms in and out at 10-millimeter increments with impressive speed.
