The official marketing text of Samsung WB WB550, Gray + Free Battery 1/2.33" Compact camera 12.2 MP CCD 3648 x 2736 pixels Grey as supplied by the manufacturer

The WB550 has a world-first 24mm ultra wide angle, 10x optical zoom lens, combined with 720p HD movie recording that can be directly outputted to an HD TV via the clever built-in HDMI port.

compact high zoom
See how the unbelievably compact WB550 hides a 24mm ultra wide 10x optical zoom lens in its thin design. This amazingly versatile lens is perfect for shooting indoors, landscapes and group portraits. The powerful 10X optical zoom brings the action to you so there's no need to move around. While the ultra wide angle lens enables you to get everything you want in the shot.

dual image stabilisation (Optical IS + New Digital IS)
Blurry images can be caused by many factors, such as hand shaking, zooming or insufficient light. Dual Image Stabilisation 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 Stabilisation (OIS) with the sophisticated algorithms of Digital Image Stabilisation (DIS), Dual Image Stabilisation; another superior SAMSUNG innovation, corrects even the tiniest of shakes.

Built in HDMI
HDMI port that used to be connected only by a cradle is now built into the WB550's body itself, making it easy to appreciate images through HDMI. We can see here that user convenience to utilise the camera's functions more conveniently is considered.

3.0" Intelligent LCD
The SAMSUNG WB550 has a 3.0" LCD for improved contrast and colour reproduction, allowing you to enjoy a wider and clearer image. Also the SAMSUNG WB550's intelligent LCD brightness automatically detects environmental illumination and adjusts LCD brightness for optimal image viewing.

Smart Album
With a 4GB SD card, your camera can store up to 2000 7-megabyte photos - that's a lot to keep track of! But with the Smart Album function sorting and organising your photos is easy: it allows you to sort your photos by time, content, colour. Smart Album lets you get straight to the best or sort through the rest.

photo style selector
Taking a simple snapshot, framing an artful pose, or doing something different has never been easier. You can select from a wide variety of optimised advanced photo effects and know exactly what you're getting with a suite of preview images to show you the results before you take your shot.

high sensitivity ISO 3200
The camera can effectively reduce possible noises in super speed sensitivity mode for clear images. ISO 3200 super speed sensitivity enables clear quality pictures to be taken even in low light conditions. (ISO supported: Auto, 80, 100, 200, 400, 800, 1600, 3200 (up to 3M)) Super speed sensitivity enables sharply-focused, momentary stop pictures to be taken of moving subjects such as children or people engaged in sports.

Getting a broad focal range from a non-interchangeable lens camera needn’t necessitate purchase of a bridge model that won’t fit in your pocket. Witness Samsung cramming a 10x optical zoom (24-240mm equivalent) into its latest WB550 compact, the "W" in...

Bottom line Samsung have tried too hard to satisfy the customer who buys by numbers. Gosh! A 10X zoom – that has to be better than a 3X, doesnt it? And count the pixels – more than 12 million of the things. Terrific! And where will it all end? This camera...
