Samsung unveils 15MP NV100HD

Hot on the heels of the NV24HD, one of Samsung's, nay the planet’s best compact snappers, the Korean giant has just pulled the ceremonial cord on the spanking new NV100HD.It comes with a massive 14.7MP, surely more than necessary for a camera of this size. But hey, we don’t see any other compact snapper to match.Aside from all those megapixels, it really is a fully–featured beast, replete with 28mm wide angle lens 720p video recording at 30fps, as well as HDMI for sticking your handiwork straight onto your LCD.Talking of LCDs, you get a 3in round the back to check out your pics as you take them. Plus there’s ISO 3200 for when you find yourself in dank, shady nightclubs of a weekend. Or is that just us? Either way, it’ll take great snaps in the dark too.Obviously, you get face detection thrown in as well as blink and smile detection and a “beauty shot” mode that will do all that retouching for you.It’s due to drop in August at the not unreasonable price of £229. Will it make it into our compacts Top Ten? Stay tuned to Stuff.tv to find out.Essentials Samsung NV100HD Price: £229 On sale: August Contact: Samsung
