Samsung HZ35W Camera Review by Gene Wright

Black Samsung HZ35W Digital 12 MP Point and Shoot Camera - Front

With the Samsung HZ35W 12 MP Digital Point and Shoot Camera (Gray), you'll take great pictures AND always know exactly where you were when you snapped them; in addition to 12MP resolution and a stunning 35mm equivalent 24~360mm Schneider-Kreuznach zoom lens, the HZ35W has a built-in GPS that can automatically tag every photo with your exact location (and also has a real-time location display telling you where you are right now).

Of course, that's not all--the HZ35W has Dual IS image stabilization to eliminate shaky, blurry pictures, light sensitivity up to ISO 3200 for terrific low-light pictures, a crisp, beautiful 3" AMOLED display for focusing and playback, plus automatic settings to avoid closed eyes and to capture smiles in your photos.

In addition, you get HD video recording with stereo sound up to 720p resolution, and the ability to record at 15, 30, or 60 fps.

In other words, a bit more than "point and shoot".
