Casio Exilim Zoom EX-Z700 Camera Reviews
Think Camera wrote a review of the
Casio Exilim EX-Z700
and said: "On the Z600 low light performance is excellent. On
the Z700 I'd have to downgrade that to “very good”. This isn't
particularly surprising - on a 7MP camera not only are there
more pixels crammed together in the same space (and this ends to
increase noise) but when you look at a file at 100% you are
effectively looking at a larger print size. I'd be happy to
print ISO 800 shots at 6X4. With careful editing using a product
such as Noise Ninja you should be able to print them bigger but
if you want a camera specially for low light there are better
choices - the Fujifilm Z3 for example."
Casio Exilim Zoom EX-Z700 News Release Summary:
JULY 27 2006 , LONDON , UK – Casio Electronics Co. Ltd., and its
parent company, Casio Computer Co. Ltd., announced today the
release of the Exilim ® Zoom EX-Z700, the latest addition to its
stylish series of Exilim digital cameras. This newest member of
the Exilim family combines the high-resolution performance of an
effective 7.2 megapixels with Casio's Super Bright LCD for easy
viewing in broad daylight.
The EX-Z700's Super Bright LCD is both big and bright: the 2.7
inch screen with 1200cd/m 2 brightness is easy to see, even on a
sunny day. At 7.2 megapixels, the high-performance EX-Z700
ensures crystal-clear image output for both printing and screen,
delivering extraordinary photographic detail. The long-life
battery packs enough power for around 460 still images on a
single charge, and the camera comes with Casio's Anti Shake DSP
to reduce photo blur due to shaky hands or moving subjects. All
in all, the EX-Z700 strikes an extremely attractive balance
between slim, stylish looks and high-performance functionality.
It also adds brand new picture-taking functions in BEST SHOT
mode.
New BEST SHOT modes
Auto Framing – Casio's new Auto Framing mode keeps dynamic
subjects like playful, active children at the centre of the
photograph, solving one of photography's most perplexing
challenges. This original new function is based on
Casio-developed “auto-follow” technology for tracking the
movement of photo subjects. In Auto Framing mode, a thin,
outlined frame appears on the LCD, centred on the moving subject
of the photo. The area within the frame indicates the image that
will be saved when the shutter is fully depressed.
Layout Shot – With new Layout Shot mode, photographers can
combine multiple shots of friends taken with the same scenic
backdrop into a single collage, or even mix shots with different
compositions to create a single artistic layout. Users simply
select one of two predefined layout templates, then take two or
three photographs, and save the results to create a single
composite image. Layout Shot delivers a whole new way to enjoy
expressive photography.
