10x optical Schneider zoom lens/ F24mm Ultra-wide angle for the first time

WB500’s 24mm Ultra-wide angle, 10x optical zoom lens cannot be found in any digital camera all over the world.

Compact High Zoom Camera

Thanks to its ultra-wide lens, it provides wider angle on the same spot compared to other products. And through 10x optical zoom and 50x digital zoom, it can pull far-away subject to under your very nose.


Advanced Dual IS and 12,200,000 high pixels


Optical IS: It is an optical image stabilization function that prevents shakes by vibrating sensor.

Avanced DIS: Newly equipped Advanced DIS captures one shot in high speed, and removes noise in two steps. It shortens image processing time and helps to get best image under any situation by preventing drop of saturation (saturation maintenance) that can happen while combining.

In addition, it supports 12,200,000 pixels, so you can get high quality image when printed.



HD high quality video recording

If you turn the mode dial to video recording, you can record and save video for 29 minutes in H.264 (MPEG4 AVC) format HD (1280x720) quality.


ISO function that brightens darkness

As you set ISO higher, shutter speed gets faster in the same amount of light. There’re eight ISO options. It supports up to ISO 3200, so you can adjust it depending on the situation. Also, as it gets higher, the sensitivity of the camera gets higher, increasing the ability to take pictures at dark places.


Smart Auto that makes anyone a professional photographer

Also its Smile shot automatically takes a shot of smiley faces. And it takes two successive shots when blinking of eyes is detected, leaving the best moment for you.



Convenient Self guide

For self shots, it guides you by automatically detecting the subject’s face location. So you can take self shots more easily and quickly. It notifies you by faster beeping sound when your face is located on the center of the screen.
