Product Description

Bring together the best of both worlds with the Samsung SCD6550 DuoCam, which combines a 5-megapixel digital still camera with a MiniDV digital video camcorder (680,000-pixel CCD). This palm-sized camera uses two separate lens systems to record still photos and video and weighs just under 1 pound. It also features a built-in flash, both USB 2.0 and Firewire (IEEE-1394) connectivity, and a multi-format memory card slot that supports Memory Stick, Memory Stick Pro, and SD/MMC cards.

The video camcorder part of the SCD6550 DuoCam has a 10x optical zoom lens and 900x variable speed digital zoom, which is activated by automatic sensing of the amount of pressure applied to the zoom tab. Digital image stabilization minimizes video shake and vibration distortion. The Simple-Q feature helps you make simple shots under any condition. Other features include:

Programmed video auto exposure modes include auto, sports, portrait, spotlight, sand/snow, color nite, and high-speed shutter mode; manual focus
