The WB500 offers a host of manual controls, including the ability to adjust shutter speed, aperture, exposure, and focus. The camera also incorporates both Optical and Digital Image Stabilization to help reduce image blur. The WB500 gives shooters the ability to capture video in 720p high-definition at 30 frames-per-second (fps), and thanks to H.264 compression, users can record video for longer periods of time, allowing them to better utilize the remaining memory capacity on their memory card.

Designed to help capture better images, specifically portraits and group shots of family and friends, the WB500’s Face Detection technology detects faces and automatically adjusts focus and exposure to ensure better composition and image quality. Smile Shot automatically triggers the WB500 to take a photo only when the camera detects smiles on the subjects’ faces, and Blink Detection automatically fire three consecutive shots if the camera detects that a subject’s eyes are closed. Another unique, automatic functionality of the WB500 is Beauty Shot, which will automatically brighten and even out skin tones as well as remove blemishes.Samsung WB500 is priced at 400$
