Chronology of cameras Samsung
Already present in the photography market since the late 1980s, the Samsung Group also had significant expertise in the consumer electronics sector by 2000. Consequently, Samsung quickly ventured into the development of digital cameras.
Unfortunately, the brand lacked recognition among photographers and was unable to generate significant interest in its camera models. Efforts to collaborate with established camera or lens manufacturers failed to achieve the desired results, as Samsung remained too focused on its own approach. Despite offering cameras with innovative features, sales never took off. In 2015, Samsung withdrew from the camera market, shifting its focus to smartphones (in addition to more traditional markets like home appliances).

The WP10 was also known as the AQ100 in some markets. The WP10 would be described as a mid range compact, with a 5X zoom lens (35 mm - 175 mm equivalent), a wealth of electronic wizardry and a slim, compact design. It is also dust proof and water proof (to 3m), but not shock proof. Its' recommended price was only about 2/3 that of its competitors offerings on release.
Unfortunately reviewers of the time seemed under whelmed by its performance. Video in/out and battery charging is via a single USB port, removing the need for a separate charger and mains adapter. It was available in red, blue, black and aquamarine colours (at least)..
