Samsung today announced the launch of the compact 7 mega pixel L74 Wide digital camera, equipped with a 3.6x optical zoom and 28mm wide-angle lens support for wider images, its ideal for tech savvy consumers looking for a high quality easy to use camera to take with them on their travels.

Equipped with 450 MB of internal memory, the L74 Wide can store all the information travelers need to get them where they’re going safely and on time. 
The L74 Wide, with a 3.0″ Touch Screen LCD, includes Samsung’s Face Recognition AF & AE, which detects the subject’s face, automatically adjusts auto focus and auto exposure to ensure better composition and image quality in portraits and other shots featuring people.
