Coupled with a 3x Optical Zoom lens and Intelligent 2.7” LCD screen, the L201 combines all the features demanding photographers require with intuitive ease-of-use, in an affordable package.

Designed with a wide selection of colors to choose from, these cameras will add a level of sophistication to your fashion sensibility. So choose from silver, black, pink, blue or green and make your camera as expressive as your photos.

Portable Size & Simplicity

Sporting a 2.7” Intelligent LCD screen, the L201 delivers cutting-edge features packed within a compact, stylish design. And at less than 20mm, the L201 can go wherever you do, making it the perfect companion. The ergonomic design of the L201 fits snugly within your hand so taking photos of your friends, family or even yourself is a snap. But don't be fooled by the sleek and compact body. The L201 also boasts the latest in digital camera technology so your photos come out picture-perfect every time.

10.2MP with 3X Optical Zoom

Samsung's 10.2 megapixel camera is the next generation in high-resolution compact cameras. It comes fully equipped with a true-color filtered 10.2 megapixel CCD and boasts a powerful 3x optical zoom. Combine that with the 5x digital zoom and you have an impressive 15x digital zoom camera! In addition, this high-resolution camera produces incredibly detailed images that can be used for printing poster-sized photos.

Face Detection

With the Face Detection function, you can now take better portrait pictures with ease. The function is able to distinguish faces from the rest of the background and automatically focus on them. It can then adjust the brightness of the faces so that your portraits come out perfect every time.

Self Portrait

Samsung's advanced Face Detection technology takes the guesswork out of taking portraits—especially your own. With the convenient Self Portrait function, you'll now be able to easily take perfect self portraits every time. A beeping sound will notify you when your face is properly positioned and it's time to take the shot. The function can even recognize up to three faces so your friends are never left out.

Motion Timer

The Motion Timer function is perfect for taking pictures of you with friends and family. No longer will you need a remote control nor need to rush to get into the right position. The Motion Timer function is able to sense whether or not the subject of your picture is moving so that you can take the best photo possible. Once you've set the Motion Timer function on, pressing the shutter button prepares the camera to start taking pictures. As soon as your subject is ready for shooting and stops moving, the camera automatically takes the picture—it's that simple!

DIS (Digital Image Stabilization)

Thanks to the enhanced sensitivity of Samsung's imaging sensor and Digital Image Stabilization (DIS) technology, you can rest assured that you'll be able to capture beautifully clear images—even in low-light situations. So if flash photography is not an option, don't worry because Samsung's DIS will quickly become your trusted friend.

Multi Charging System

Samsung's unique Multi Charging System has made traveling even easier. With a single charging USB cable kit (SAC-47), you can conveniently charge your camera through any electrical outlet, laptop or desktop computer. This provides you with more charging options especially when you're on the road, so you'll never have to worry about traveling with spare batteries.

Function Descriptin & Photo Help Guide

The Function Description provides clear and easy to understand descriptions of each setting when you scroll through the camera's menus. This allows you to easily determine which feature is the most appropriate for your shooting scenario. So whether you're a novice or an advanced user, the Function Description will ensure that you'll make the most of the camera's amazing capabilities without leaving you in the dark.

Taking great pictures has never been easier thanks to the built-in Photo Help Guide.

The Photo Help Guide takes you on a guided tour accompanied by easy-to-follow tips that teach you how to make the most of your camera—regardless if you are a novice or an advanced user.
