Besides the well-specced TL220 and TL225 digital cameras, Samsung unleashed another camera delivering new features (as in not found in any or many cameras). Bringing a 12.2 megapixel sensor (that's the current "standard" for the moment with all manufacturers, from what I see, besides the niche ones), a 5x optical zoom, 30fps 720p movie, HDMI output and a 3.5-inch touchscreen with 1,152,000 pixels together with Bluetooth and Smart Gesture user interface.

If that's not enough, how about having the possibility of uploading your pictures directly to Facebook and Picasa? Why not upload your videos on YouTube directly from your camera? Yep, you even get WiFi from this camera.

This is Samsung's new CL65 Point and Shoot Digital Camera. Now, the introduction being made, let's see some concrete specs. That 12.2 megapixel sensor is a 1/2.33" CCD, the optical zoom spreads over a 35 - 175mm focal range (FF35 equivalent), while the aperture starts from F3.6 on wide and shrinks to F4.8 on tele.

The Bluetooth 2.0 enables you to quickly exchange files with other Bluetooth devices. I almost forgot to mention the GPS. Thanks to the 3-depth geo-tagging, you'll always know exactly where you took a picture. WiFi connectivity will let you keep your friends up to date while you have a coffee break with the DLNA standard supported. Mind that WiFi is limited to networks that do not require verification.

Other mention-worthy tech specs would be the smart touch auto focus, smart face recognition for up to 20 faces, dual image stabilization and the perfect portrait system. This digital camera will be available by September this year for the sole price of $399.99.
