There’s also an 18x Optical Zoom that helps you quickly take stunning close-ups from far away, so you can get sharply rendered images of moving glockenspiel figurines atop a clock tower or of the colourful details of exotic birds in the wildlife park.

14M BSI CMOS sensor & Low Light Shot
A sunset beach party, a dimly-lit dance club great photo opportunities dont always have the best lighting. Capture properly exposed images in low-light situations with the 14-megapixel BSI (Back Side Illuminated) CMOS sensor.

The easy way to shoot like a pro
Smart Mode
Stop being jealous of the pros with their big cameras, and start taking great shots. A quick tap of Smart Mode and youre set with various special modes. Capture trails of light at night on a busy intersection full of red taillights or capture a high-speed scene with Action Freeze. Let Rich Tone create extraordinarily surrealistic photos with colours that pop and express your artistic side. Just choose the one you want and the WB250F will help you shoot perfection.
Rewind to the picture perfect moment
Best Face
Missed it? With the Best Face feature that wont happen again. Use it to travel back in time after youve taken a picture to replace faces with the perfect moment. Use it to open eyes, replace a smile, or find that perfect expression. With the combination lightning fast burst shots and facial recognition, you can simply tap a face that's looking the other way, and tap again to replace it with expressions taken moments before the actual shot.
Full HD Recording
Capture 1920 x 1080 Full HD video with life-like colour and extraordinarily sharp details. Shoot longer too — the camera’s H.264 format allows longer recording than a Samsung camera with MJPEG video does. When you’re done, you can watch your brilliant HD footage large as life on your HDTV.
Full Manual Mode(A/S/M
Full Manual (A/S/M) mode allows you full creative control. Aperture Priority and Shutter Priority settings let you experiment with shutter speeds and depth of field — for example, when you’re shooting fast-moving images in low light. With Samsung cameras, you can capture the photos you want.
Motion Photo
Motion Photo freezes the action around a moving subject to create a fun scene. Capture a friend dancing — then make everyone around him still as a statue. Simply shoot the footage, and then rub the area on the display where you want keep the movement. The photo around it will freeze—it’s that easy.
