The Samsung WB1000 is a compact point-and-shoot camera released in mid 2009 as Samsung's flagship P&S. At its core is a 12.2MP / 1/2.33″ CCD with a 24mm wide angle Scheider-KREUZNACH 5x zoom lens.

Together, they allow the WB1000 to handle 720p high-definition motion videos and extensively detailed 4000×3000 pixel still images. Laced across the back of the unit is a 3” (480x360) OLED display, alongside which (on the right side) most of the controls have been packed to allow for easy one-hand operation. Notable about the WB1000 are the analog gauges — inherited from the NV9 — that are situated across the top. They allow the user to track the remaining battery-charge and SD memory space.
