Samsung EX2F: launch and promotional offer

Thursday, August 23rd, 2012

The regional launch event of the Samsung EX2F compact camera was held in Singapore tonight. The camera is now available for S$699. Promotions till 16 September within.

Regional launch of the Samsung EX2F compact camera in Singapore.

The launch event was held in 72-13 Mohamed Sultan Road in Singapore with some 60 attendees from Singapore, Malaysia and Australia.

From now till 16 September, get a free 25L Dry box and Power Bank charger worth S$238, as well as an SD card, a camera case and an extra battery worth S$115 when you buy an EX2F.

Attendees had a chance to try out the camera for low-light night photography in a boat ride from Clarke Quay down the Singapore River and back.

The Samsung EX2F has a maximum aperture of F/1.4 at its widest angle of 24mm (35mm equivalent).

The 12-megapixel camera is Wi-Fi capable and has an optical zoom of approximately 3.3, with maximum zoom at 80mm.

I tried out the camera during the boat ride and found it offers the whole range of manual controls that you get with DSLRs.

From the short span of time that we had to play with the camera, we found the camera focuses reasonably fast and was able to take photos at relatively low light conditions, because of the bright F/1.4 lens.

It also has a full-swivel AMOLED screen for snapping photos at awkward angles.

You can read more about the Samsung EX2F and its technical specifications here.
