Samsung is proud to accept the Technical Image Press Association's prestigious "Best New Multimedia Digital Camera" award for its Digimax i6 PMP, the world's first digital still camera to double as a personal media player (PMP). Considered by many as the "Oscars" of the Imaging Industry, TIPA awards honor the best digital imaging products in all of Europe.
Selected for its innovative and ground-breaking technology, the Digimax i6 is a revolutionary 6 mega-pixel digital still camera that features Samsung's exclusive Digimax Converter software to play video files and MP3 files. The world?s first digital camera to incorporate a personal media player, the i6 allows users to enjoy entertainment while on-the-go right on their state-of-the-art digital still camera. Measuring a mere 3.7 x 2.4 x 0.7-inches with a 2.5-inch, high resolution LCD display, this credit card sized package integrates a 3x optical zoom capability with Samsung's exclusive SHD lens technology.
"The Digimax i6 is an incredible technological advancement and we are thrilled to be recognized by TIPA and to be included among the imaging industry giants that comprise this year's winners," says Stewart Henderson, National Marketing Manager at Samsung Opto-Electronics . "At Samsung we strive to develop cutting-edge technology and to provide innovative products that today's sophisticated marketplace desires. The i6 is an excellent representation of that strategy."
Representing a membership of over eight million readers throughout 12 European countries, TIPA is comprised of expert editors of independent European photo and imaging magazines. Winners are chosen by TIPA's General Assembly, the highest body of the association, in several categories including; features, price, performance, innovation, design, ease of use, ergonomics, and efficiency.
The Digimax i6 allows the user to create movies using MPEG-4, the high-compression, high?quality video format. The i6 can record in VGA (640x480) at 30fps, for smoother video and a bigger view of the movie on LCD and TV screens. For steady videos, the i6 includes a movie stabilizer function that automatically detects and corrects minor lateral and vertical camera movement.
Equipped with Samsung's state-of-the-art Advanced Shake Reduction (ASR) technology to combat hand shake, the ASR function provides enhanced image clarity by electronically compensating for excess hand shake and improving color in environments lacking sufficient lighting where the use of the flash is not desirable.
