Casio Exilim EX-Z750 Review

- Casio's $450 Exilim EX-Z750 will suit almost any photographer hunting for a small, pocketable camera. Occasional photographers will find automatic settings and plenty of scene modes to help them get better shots, while experienced shooters will appreciate the creative control they get by using the camera's solid selection of advanced features. Encased in a slim metal body, the EX-Z750 is small enough for you to carry everywhere. The camera's 3X zoom lens is standard fare, but the 2.5-inch LCD is enormous and fills most of the camera's back. Surprisingly, Casio found room for a small optical viewfinder, which lets you shoot in extreme lighting conditions and allows you to extend the camera's battery life by turning off the LCD.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: LCD size, Auto modes + Aperture priority, Shutter Priority, & Full Manual control. Includes OPTICAL viewfinder. Excellent build quality.

    Weaknesses: None

    Overall Evaluation: My sixth digital camera in 10 years... I have always bought Sony but gave this CASIO a try. A fabulous camera for all the reasons others have stated. One of the last that still offers an OPTICAL viewfinder. Do not upgrade to a newer model CASIO, they are now over simplified and do not offer the flexibility and creative control that you get only with the Exilim 750. Find it and buy it. It's worth it.* AS NO ONE HAS MENTIONED THIS SOLUTION, LET ME SHARE THIS:There is no need to lug the cradle around (vacationing, etc.) in order to recharge the battery! Don't risk breaking the cradle, it's expensive to replace. Leave it home! For about $15 on Ebay you can purchase a non-OEM battery WITH a portable charger. You will have a spare battery always at the ready, just think how convenient that will be! And to re-charge the battery you simply remove it from the camera and pop it into the battery charger. The charger comes with 2 plugs, one for the wall outlet, one for your car! It's small, slim, packs easily into your purse or pocket. Buy one, you will be very glad you did.

    Strengths: HUGE LCD, excellent quality, size.

    Weaknesses: It takes too long for the flash.

    Overall Evaluation: I really love this camera. I use it for concerts, etc and I really get great quality in really low lighting.I haven't had any of the error messages previous reviewers have had. Maybe they fixed it?
