Samsung Galaxy 2 Camera

My daughter bought this for me as a Christmas gift and it's AWESOME! I love the quality. Definitely need to get an expansion card if you have one. I have a 32 GB sim and I have taken awesome pictures with it. There are some other features I've used, facebook, some apps, etc. so overall great camera. Wish there was a reverse feature but I can't complain.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

Samsung Galaxy Camera 2 - the perfect 'go everywhere' camera.

The Samsung Galaxy camera offers the largest display of any camera (short of an expensive medium format camera) available. I look at it both as a pocket computer with excellent specs and as a super zoom camera with a really wonderful 4.8" display.
This new SGC2 has been improved in so many ways. The new 28 smart modes should cover just about any shooting scene. The OIS is greatly improved. New software that makes better use of the 1.6GHz Exynos quad core processor has made the images really sharp and the color accuracy is top notch.
If you are into shooting videos, the Galaxy Cameras are among the very few that allow you to use an external microphone (which goes in the headphone jack.) A proper microphone makes all the difference in producing high quality videos.
This camera comes very close to being the perfect ‘go everywhere’ camera. It has a long zoom that ranges from 23mm to 483mm allowing you to perfectly frame most any subject, a large touchscreen that makes composition much easier than any 3” screen and an easy to use camera interface that’s a joy to use.
Add to all of this camera goodness is the fact that you have a complete computing experience available to you. You can for instance, compose a document or an email and add along a sharp, colorful image.

Clear, crisp photos

This camera is a little overwhelming at first, but it was easy to figure out. It takes the most clear and crisp photos. The different settings allow for a good photo at any time with little or no light. I got this camera as an early Mother's Day gift to use at my daughter's college graduation and I got a clear shot of her as she was about to walk across the stage to get her diploma. Awesome!
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

Android OS The Biggest Plus Of Galaxy Camera 2
on May 19, 2014

Expertise:Expert
Tired of the limitations of your phone's camera? Even though the camera on my Galaxy Note 3 is excellent, the Galaxy Camera 2 fills in the areas where a camera phone falls short. Combining the 21x zoom lens with the Android OS allows you greater creativity to take AND edit your photos. That's right, since the camera runs on Android, you can edit your photos using your favorite photo editing app--- now THAT'S versatility!
And with the wifi capabilities of the phone, you can upload your photos to your favorite social media site or cloud service and share it from there. What-- no wifi hotspot available? No problem with the GC2's built in NFC capabilities. Since my Galaxy Note 3 has NFC as well, a transferring a photo from the GC2 to my phone is as simple as touching the two together. From there, it's simple to share the photo using my phone provider's data services.
With the Galaxy Camera 2 and a Samsung smartphone with NFC, you don't have to wait to find a wifi hotspot to share your photos-- you're always connected!
The Galaxy Camera 2 is how ALL point-and-shoot cameras should be...
