Special Features
Feature
10.1 mega pixels 3x optical zoom
The Samsung S1030 is a high resolution digital camera equipped with a true-colour filtered 10.1
mega-pixel CCD and a 15x total zoom (3x optical, 5x digital), allowing you to produce highquality, detailed photos for printing up to poster size.

2.7" Large LCD screen

The Samsung S1030 has a 2.7" large LCD with improved contrast and colour reproduction for
easy image framing and reviewing.

1. Basis information
Special Features
Feature
Supports high resolution ISO 1000
The Samsung S1030 supports ISO 1000, making it one of the most light-sensitive models in its
class. This allows you to use faster shutter speeds - great for moving subjects and capturing crisp
images in low-light conditions. [Select from ISO/AUTO 80, 100, 200, 400, 800, 1000]

"E" button to access various photo effects directly

The Samsung S1030 has some great special effect functions - including Colour Effect, Highlight,
Photo Frame and Composite Shot - that give you unique, and sometimes amusing, shooting
experiences beyond conventional picture-taking.You can access each of these special effects with
just one touch of the E button.

1. Basis information
Special Features
Feature
MPEG-4, VGA 30fps movie function
The powerful video capability of the Samsung S1030 delivers a "camcorder like"experience. For a
more enhanced movie shooting experience, the Samsung S1030 uses MPEG-4(640 x 480 30fps).

Ergonomic grip
The user-friendly ergonomic body design delivers comfort and a steady hold for better shots. This
means you can expect even better focus no matter where your subject isin the frame.

1. Basis information
Special Features
Feature
Auto Macro & Macro 4cm
When set to Auto mode, the Samsung S1030 automatically adjusts the shooting distance and
focus from between 4cm to infinity, helping you to get great close-up shots more easily. For more
detailed macro pictures the additional Macro mode allows you to take shots of subjects as close as
4cm.

Convenient mode dial

The user-friendly mode dial - with Night, Portrait and Children modes - make it easier to get great
shots of your subject by giving instant access to the appropriate mode for each individual
situation. Children mode, with its open aperture and fast shutter speeds, lets you "freeze" children
and other subjects in fast-moving action shots. Night mode automatically uses the slow
synchronization function to help you get clearer and brighter pictures at night. The Portrait mode
delivers more realistic, flattering people shots with improved red-eye reduction.
