Spring is coming to Canterbury

Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. has provided the author of this article
with the mentioned digital imaging device.

Hello there! Nice to meet you! I am EU. I live in Canterbury, located
southeast of the UK. I’ve been staying here for about 20 days now, getting used
to the new culture and new life. I am excited to share my adventures in the UK
with many of you with the
Samsung EX1. A new world viewed through the Samsung EX1! You can look
forward to some interesting and fun stories.

This past week’s weather was typical UK weather. At last the rain stopped,
leaving room for a warm and cozy sunlight and a clear blue sky. Although the
wind was still chillier then one might expect with the radiant sunlight and all,
I decided to visit the Greyfriars Garden near my place to get a full feel for
the upcoming spring.

Canterbury (Kent Country- located at 85km southeast of London) is a small
town, nothing like London, with a unique warmth and comfort not easily found
elsewhere.

The cold breeze diminished the feeling of spring, but the green leaves and
purple petals appeared to be whispering ‘spring is here!’

This somewhat lonely and deserted bench will become ever busy in April when
people flock to the park to enjoy the spring weather.

This picture is of a grandfather gazing at his grandchild who is sitting in
a stroller drinking milk. What a lovely scene! It seemed like they were
observing the Narcissus in yellow blossom along the river fence and enjoying the
spring just like me.

Have you ever heard of ‘punting’? It refers to cruising down the river on a
boat called a ‘punt.’ Punting was mostly used for hunting or fishing in the
past, but is now mostly used for tourists. The Cambridge area is especially
famous for punting. Punting also exists in Canterbury and because the river
flowing through Greyfriars Garden is not deep, it is the best place for punting.
A couple was idly riding down the river, having a peaceful afternoon. It was a
nice match with the spring weather.

At Canterbury, you can find both winter and spring…just like a falling leaf
and flower petals. Soon the leaves will all disappear and give way to green
leaves and blossoming flowers. Approaching spring is welcoming, but I already
miss the fading winter.

Precious digital camera WB1000(TL320) for digital camera mania

Posted by KIMMINSEOK on Aug 9, 2009 • (0)

Prologue

I used the WB1000(TL320) for a long time. Most of all, I like the WB1000(TL320) providing setting for good picture in various situations, and it’s even precious to me. This is the first review posting for me. I’d like to help you who are looking for a stylish digital camera.

1. Features

Having everything for great pictures!

1. A/S/M mode making pictures free

2. 24mm ultra wide angle lens

3. Incomparable hVGA AMOLED screen

4. Analog Dashboard

5. Great interface, Smart dial

Plus,

I. Smart mode taking pictures you want

II. Customizing like DSLR

III. HD quality HD video

2. Why WB1000(TL320) / Main function

Lens

The most important thing of digital cameras is the lens performance. The WB1000(TL320) has F2.8[W]-5.8[T], and has great image quality using the Schneider lens. Especially, the 24mm ultra wide angle is suitable to get all angles when taking pictures. When taking a traveling picture, there’s no cut for building or scenery, and it’s also good for portrait shots.

24mm wide angle lens can take famous buildings without cutting.

(Especially, if you consider trip to Europe, you should select a digital camera having wide angle such as the WB1000(TL320).

AMOLED

Different from other digital cameras, the WB1000(TL320) has adopted the AMOLED for the first time. The AMOLEDS shows incomparably great color and clean image, so it’s called ‘Display of dream’. From any angle, there’s no difference of light and darkness, and under the sunlight, you can see the screen, so it’s the best screen.

Manual shot mode A/S/M

It’s the representative function of the WB1000(TL320), using the smart dial, you can adjust iris and shutter speed to take pictures. You can freely adjust out focusing and exposure, so you can get pictures you want. It’s useful for those who want to learn pictures with manual shot function like DSLR and want to have a sub camera.

Smart Dial

Setting shots by rotating a dial is another advantage of the WB1000(TL320). Almost all settings can be done by rotating the dial such as shutter speed, iris, white balance, and focus region. When setting the M mode using iris and shutter speed as a fully manual set, the convenience of the smart dial is more outstanding. Easy and fast setting is possible, so it helps take good pictures.

Fast setting by using the smart dial is so effective.

Great high ISO noise reduction (High ISO test)

Even though it’s a 12.2M pixels camera, the WB1000(TL320) has relatively stable high ISO noise. The noise reduction as an advantage of Samsung cameras gets better with the WB1000(TL320). There’s no noise from ISO80~400, and ISO 800 shows great quality. There’s some noise on ISO 1600, but not as much as other cameras, and it’s good enough to upload on the web site after resizing.

High ISO picture gallery

ISO 800, there’s no noise.

ISO1600, it’s surprising that it takes the detail as it is.

ISO1600, the atmosphere is rather cool.

ISO1600, this can be the best of all compact cameras in the high ISO shot.

ISO1600, it also has great color expression.

HD video recording function

The video quality of the WB1000(TL320) using H.264 codec is as great as some handy camcorder. This can take an HD video for 20 minutes at 30 fps, and by adopting the H.264 format, it can record the best quality video with a small capacity. When recoding, if you are zooming, the sound is not recorded, but it’s good enough to take life with high quality videos.

4. Design

Sensible and stylish design

The appearance of the WB1000(TL320) is outstanding with metallic and luxurious design. Adding the rubber grip on the front, this looks better. On the whole, the color and design are mixed well.

Analog dashboard (Finishing the design of the WB1000(TL320))

The dashboard showing the status of memory and battery is the second face of the WB1000(TL320). As a unique design, I saw people were so wondering when they saw this.

Neat design finishing…

By putting the smart dial, buttons were minimized at the back. The neat whole composition is noticeable.

Wonderful quality AMOLED and rotating Smart dial

Precious digital camera WB1000(TL320) for digital camera mania

Epilogue

The WB1000(TL320) will be a great gift looking for a high performance and good design camera. The general resolution of the camera is really good, and there’s rarely chromatism on the lens. 12.2M pixels shows the real value for high ISO pictures, and the screen of AMOLED deserves to be loved by digital camera mania. Except the weakness stopping voice recording while zooming, the HD video recording function is much more useful than any other cameras. And the manual shot function is good for beginners and users who want to know more about pictures.
