| Casio Exilim Zoom EX-Z850 Digital Camera |
CASIO has announced the release of the latest addition to its EXILIM ZOOM digital camera
series with the stylish, compact, and high-resolution EX-Z850. Offering high quality 8.1
megapixel photos, the EX-Z850 includes a 3X optical zoom, and offers both manual aperture
and shutter speed priority AE options for advanced users who prefer to create customized
images. The impressive 2.5” Super Bright LCD generates approximately 1,200 cd/m2 of luminescent
output, making the monitor even easier to view when outdoors.The EX-Z850 includes the latest version of the EXILIM Engine, featuring the Anti Shake DSP which considerably reduces the incidence of blurred images due to shaky hands or moving subjects, so you only have to worry about which shots to take, not how they will come out. In response to user’s high demand, the EX-Z850’s Super Life Battery supports 440 shots per charge, providing convenient, long-lasting usability. Notable new features on the EX-Z850 include flash functions for a variety of settings and situations, including; Rapid Flash, which enables three flash photos in only one second to completely capture a given moment; Soft Flash, which prevents overexposure of subjects photographed up close; and High Power Flash, which ensures that subjects are properly illuminated even when photographed as far away as approximately 12.1 meters. The EX-Z850 also includes Revive Shot, which refreshes faded colors of old photos by bringing them back to life in digital format, automatically adjusts for obliquity even when photos are shot while still in the album. Additionally, when taking high quality long duration MPEG-4 movies, the EX-Z850 instantaneously reduces camera shake electronically. For movies taken in dimly lit environments, an LED Light provides additional illumination of the subject. The EX-Z850 represents the latest technology and functions the EXILIM digital camera line has to offer. Easy to use automatically or customizable to user specifications, this camera offers the stunningly high quality images and versatility that comes only from CASIO.
