All-in-one digital camcorder and 4.13 MegaPixel digital still camera.
Soccer games, Birthdays, Graduations. All the countless celebrations that make up our lives.
To really capture the moment without missing a minute of the action you need two digital cameras - one for video and one for still pictures.
But, who wants the hassle of carrying two cameras?
That is whey Samsung created the DuoCam. It is the worlds first digital camcorder to combine Mini-DVD video functionality with a serious, high-resolution digital still camera.
This is the most versatile digital camera you have ever seen.
DuoCam's unique Swiveling Dual Lens gives you the optimum lens for either Mini-DV video or digital stills. DuoCam has so many easy-to- use features that it is the ideal camcorder - or camera - for any occasion.
