Samsung today launched a stylish trio of flagship digital cameras the company hopes will win it a host of new fans when they ship in September. The luxurious-looking gadgets incorporate hi-res video shooting and multimedia playback.

The NV series comprises three models: the NV3, NV7 OPS and NV10. The first two are 7.2 megapixel machines, the former with an integrated media player - think of it as a PMP that also takes pictures. The NV7 OPS - the OPS stands for 'Optical Picture Stabilisation' - adds anti-shake technology and a 7x optical zoom.
