It is easy to download the pictures from your camera to your computer, either at home or at the shop and edit them before printing.

Features
By combining the latest advances in photography and smart technology, the GALAXY Camera 2 takes shooting and sharing to a new level

Android v4.3 JBP, Processor (1.6 Q)
Do more than ever with the Android-powered GALAXY Camera 2, now upgraded with the latest version of Jelly Bean: 4.3. Powered by a 1.6 GHz quad-core processor—and featuring numerous camera and social networking apps—it does what conventional cameras and smartphones cannot. Like capturing brilliant images, even in low-lit settings, and saving photos to your PC and smartphone without having to use an SD card. Plus you can edit right on the display, and wirelessly upload to Facebook and Instagram.

121.2 mm (4.8") HD Super Clear Touch Display
Now you don’t have to wait until you get back home to properly review and edit your photos. The GALAXY Camera 2’s 121.2 mm (4.8") HD Super Clear Touch Display is what a camera display was meant to be, with an ultra sharp 308 pixels per inch and the full spectrum of glorious colors. And with the new White Magic Technology, you can even double the brightness without worrying about battery consumption. And why not view your HD movies at a golden 16 : 9 ratio? Perfect.

21x Optical Super Long Zoom with Pinch Zoom
Save the digital zoom for editing afterwards. GALAXY Camera 2’s 21x Super Long Zoom is 100 percent optical. With the intuitive Pinch Zoom, you can zoom in and out by simply pinching two fingers on the screen. Both the 21x Super Long Zoom and Pinch Zoom help get you as close as possible to your subject while maintaining the same crystal-clear image sharpness you experience with subjects nearer to the camera.

Smart Mode
Stop being jealous of the pros with their big cameras, and start taking great shots. Like the perfect trails of light at night on a busy intersection full of red taillights. Or instantly capture a high-speed scene with Action Freeze. A quick tap of Smart Mode, and you’re set with various special modes. Just choose the one you want and shoot perfection.

Smart Mode Suggest
Stop worrying about settings, and start taking professional-quality artistic shots. A quick tap of the Smart Mode button gives you access to a wide range of special modes. Use Drama Shot to merge continuous shots of moving objects into a single composed image, or Action Freeze to instantly capture high-speed action. Using Light Trace, unleash your inner Picasso and have your subject draw with a handheld light to capture prolonged exposure effects. Multi Exposure shot lets you blend two shots into a single beautifully composed image. You can also record sound to your photo to relive the moment exactly how it happened with Sound & Shot. Just choose the mode you want and go.

Tag & Go (NFC / Wi-Fi)
Wi-Fi and NFC technologies open up a world of possibilities. Photo Beam lets you transfer an image or video to a friend’s smartphone when the two devices are placed back-to-back, while MobileLink sends content to another device much farther away. Other Tag & Go features include a Remote Viewfinder, which lets you control your camera with your smartphone. AutoShare automatically sends every photo instantly to your smartphone or tablet via Wi-Fi that’s powered by NFC technology. Sharing and saving have never been this easy.

50 G DropBox
It’s understandable if you never want to put the GALAXY Camera 2 down. But if you find yourself capturing more moments than the spacious built-in storage can handle, no problem. The camera not only comes with the DropBox app preloaded, you also get 50 GB of free cloud storage for up to two years. So keep on snapping and shooting to your heart’s content.

Selfie Alarm
You are the star of your selfie. So why use a smartphone camera when you can snap a high-resolution 16.3 MP self-portrait with the GALAXY Camera 2 instead? It’s easier than you’d expect, thanks to the Selfie Alarm feature. Simply hold up the camera and face it, and Selfie Alarm automatically shoots five images in a row. Choose your fave of the batch and make it your Facebook profile picture.

StoryAlbum
Timeless memories: now available in real time. The GALAXY Camera 2’s Story Album function lets you create, display and print photo albums of family gatherings, vacations, sporting events or any other experience that’s worth sharing. Story Album organizes photos into timelines, and reframes and resizes them to create digital photo books that you can display on your camera’s screen—or send anywhere for recipients to view on their own devices.

Samsung Smart Camera App
Get the most out of your camera by installing the Samsung Smart Camera App onto your smartphone. Compatible with most iOS and Android devices, the free app lets you launch four features—Photo Beam, AutoShare, Remote Viewfinder, and MobileLink—all at once on your smartphone or tablet.

Wi-Fi (Social and Cloud)
Show off a fabulous selfie with the rest of the world in no time flat. As long as you have a Wi-Fi connection, you can post images and videos directly to Facebook, YouTube, and now Picasa. Tag and add comments, too. You can also upload photos right to your blog, or email them to your family.
