Casio Press Release Excerpt:
The EX-Z750
EXILIM ZOOM for truly enjoyable digital photography
The EX-Z750’s 7.2 megapixel CCD imaging element delivers
superior picture quality with remarkably high definition, while
the optical 3X zoom lens and large 2.5-inch liquid crystal
display assure enjoyable operation. In addition to manual
operation, an extremely versatile array of shooting functions
enables a variety of photo effects. Using MPEG-4 format, high
quality movies can also be taken in VGA size (640 x 480 pixels)
at 30 frames per second. Of course, longer battery life enables
the shooting of approximately 325 shots (CIPA standards)* on a
battery charge. When set in its cradle, A/V signal output allows
the user to view the photos or movies taken on an external video
monitor such as television.
*CIPA
“Standard Procedure for Measuring Digital Still Camera Battery
Consumption”:
Until
recently there has been no standard measurement for battery
life. This has resulted in inconsistencies between camera
products and their catalogs and instruction manuals. As of
December 2003, CIPA (Camera & Imaging Products Association)
established the Standard Procedure for Measuring Digital Still
Camera Battery Consumption, and hopes to reduce confusion among
consumers by having this adopted by the world’s digital camera
manufacturers and retailers.
The EX-Z750
is ideal for consumers who are looking to create superior images
in challenging lighting conditions. Consumers can select
aperture priority, shutter priority, or simply select from
several unique “Best Shot” modes to enhance the images. The
0.9-second continuous shooting mode and low light assist, help
capture sharp images such as fast action or low light scenes.
The pre-record or “Past Movie” mode continuously captures 5
seconds of video automatically into buffer memory to ensure that
the user records the critical video prior to pushing the
shutter. Consumers can also select from several different “Movie
Best Shot” modes and do simple video editing within the camera.
