You know how hard it is to get a self-photo, right? In most of my blogger events, we always end up asking other people to take our photo with our camera or someone from our group has to be the one behind the lens.
The few times I have tried to take a self-photo with my digicam, my photos would get half my face, come out crooked and look so awkward.
About two years ago, we marvelled at the new Samsung digicam with 2D view technology which had a second frontal display screen. What a novelty it was back then as friends who had it showed us how easy it was to compose self-photos exactly the way we wanted the shot. The camera could also detect a smile, taking a picture just as you grin.
Last November 4, Samsung introduced the Samsung MV800 – a multiview camera – at a media launch. The MV800 can be rotated all the way to 180 degrees to catch important events from any angle.
Here are some features of the MV800:
 |
| A 3.0″ touchscreen display features different apps you can launch with the touch of a finger. No knob twisting anymore. |
 |
| See that sign on the side? A whopping 16.1 megapixels! And what is that – a 45 degree angle? |
