New Samsung ST93 16MP compact announced

The new Samsung ST93 offers a number of impressive specs, including a 16MP sensor and 5x zoom. The lens starts at a wide 26mm which is both optically and digitally stabilized. Offering 720p HD video recording at 30 frames per second along with zoom functionality will please the occasional movie-shooter, and the Magic Frame feature sounds fun at the very least. 

With a huge amount of compacts vying for elbow room in the camera market with a similar feature list to the ST93, but the £129.99 SRP should turn a few heads at the very least. The huge resolution of the sensor will also create some interest, although how the in-camera processing copes with that amount of information remains to be seen.

The Samsung ST93 will be on sale next month, for more information go to www.samsung.co.uk
