Samsung Brings Evernote to the WB250F SMART Camera

Evernote Gives Consumers a Fast and Simple Way to Sync Favorite Snapshots Across Devices

RIDGEFIELD PARK, N.J. – July 31, 2013 – Samsung Electronics America, Inc., a market leader and award-winning innovator in consumer electronics, today announced the integration of Evernote into its WB250F SMART Camera. Coupled with Samsung’s SMART Camera 2.0 technologies, the addition of Evernote gives users a new way to capture and sync photos across any device that has Evernote installed.

The new Evernote feature integration is available starting today to users in the United States via a software update to currently-owned and newly-purchased WB250F SMART Cameras. The WB250F SMART Camera also comes with three months of the Evernote Premium service (a $15 value) that includes a higher upload allowance per month (up to 1GB), more sharing options and faster image processing.1

“Consumers want to take great pictures that they can share with their family and friends,” said Ron Gazzola, Vice President of Marketing for Digital Imaging. “With the addition of Evernote to Samsung’s WB250F, users can now seamlessly sync their images across devices and share their photo memories with other Evernote users.”

The Wi-Fi enabled Samsung Smart Camera allows consumers to capture images and share them on popular social media sites or via email when connected to a Wi-Fi network. The integration with Evernote is just the latest way that the WB250F SMART Camera can help users do more with the photos they take. With Evernote, users will now be able to instantly and securely sync their photos to all of their personal devices that have the Evernote app installed including their PCs, smart phones and tablets. From there, users can privately share their photos with friends and family via Evernote.

In addition to enabling consumers to connect and share, the 14.2 megapixel WB250F also gives them the ability to take great photos with a BSI CMOS sensor, 18x optical zoom and full manual (P/S/A/M) modes. With a touch-screen LCD display and five-way navigational keys, users can easily adjust the WB250F to their preferences. The Smart Camera also captures everyone’s best shot with the Best Face feature and allows users to shoot like a pro and achieve full creativity in varying conditions using Smart Mode and the Motion Photo feature.

The Samsung WB250F (MSRP: $249.99) is available in white, cobalt black, gun metal and red from authorized Samsung retailers and at www.Samsung.com. Newly purchased cameras will come with the Evernote Premium redemption code in the box. Evernote Premium codes can be redeemed at go.evernote.com/samsungcamera.
