\"Samsung<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Right before I left for the Consumer Electronics Show<\/a>\u00a0 in Vegas, I received from Samsung their new Samsung Galaxy Camera. \u00a0I was in heaven…I still am. \u00a0Of all the cameras I have ever owned, the Samsung Galaxy Camera <\/a>is my favorite by far. \u00a0Why? The Galaxy Camera has solved some of my most frustrating camera issues:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Problems with Other Camera’s I’ve Owned:<\/span><\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. unable to zoom enough to see my children in their school play<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. takes dark pictures inside<\/li>\n
  3. the shutter is too slow, usually resulting in missing my child getting their award altogether!<\/li>\n
  4. not being able to share my photos with others until I download the pics on my PC (which could take weeks…months even!)<\/li>\n
  5. watching my children’s important moments through a tiny screen<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Problems Solved<\/span><\/h2>\n

    The Samsung \u00a0Galaxy Camera has solved my issues…every one of them. \u00a0With it’s 21x optical zoom, I no longer have to fight for a front row seat to take pictures of my child at a school event. \u00a0I can sit comfortably and zoom in from a distance. \u00a0With the built-in flash that actually pops up when pressed (remember…like the old days?), I get a lot more lighting on my subject, which creates well-lighted pictures.<\/p>\n

    And get this…I will never miss “the” moment when my child receives his\/her award again. \u00a0First of all, the viewing screen is 4.8 inches! \u00a0I often joked that while everyone else could see the stage without\u00a0obstruction\u00a0 my view of my kids special moments was always limited to the tiny screen of the camera I was using. \u00a0And now, with the “Continuous Shot” mode on, I can take a rapid succession of 20 pictures to ensure I get the shot just as the award is handed to my child. \u00a0I’ve already tried this and started my shots as my daughter climbed up the last step to the stage and walked across the platform to receive her award. \u00a0Success…yes!<\/p>\n

    With regards to sharing, this camera has social sharing down pat. \u00a0The Samsung Galaxy Camera is built upon the Android JellyBean platform, which means it’s basically like having a built-in smartphone…without the phone. \u00a0And now, I can download any Android apps I’d like. \u00a0Immediately, I downloaded Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, and a few more. \u00a0When I take a picture, I can view it and immediately upload it to my favorite social site. \u00a0Once I log in, I’m always logged in to each social media site and can easily share my pics.<\/p>\n

    \"CES\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\"CES<\/p>\n

    Deepak Chopra talks to Arriana\u00a0Huffington about his new Dream Weaver glasses in aCES \u00a0panel discussion. \u00a0 \u00a0Myself, Kimberly Blaine<\/a>, Beth Blecherman<\/a>, and Andrea Smith<\/a>\u00a0 at a Hard Rock nightclub during CES.<\/p>\n

    Here are two pictures that came out great. \u00a0The first one is Deepak Chopra talking with Arianna\u00a0Huffington\u00a0during a panel at CES on health. \u00a0I was WAY in the back of a large conference room and I used the 21x optical zoom to close in on their faces. \u00a0I was very impressed how how well the picture came out despite my location. \u00a0The second photo was taken in a dark nightclub during a Mashable event at CES. \u00a0I used the manual pop-up flash and the photo came out beautifully.<\/p>\n
