Casio Exilim EX-Z750 Digital Camera

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.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.

Duration of ownership: 3 Years

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.

Duration of ownership: 30 Days

Strengths: Great pictures, great detail, great colors

Weaknesses:Lens error, its true, it comes up so be prepared as you may also get it. Also, it takes long to charge the flash so if the pic of your life is suddenly in front of you, you may miss it

Overall Evaluation: Before making a trip to China and Japan I made a reasonable amount of research on this item and decided to buy it in spite of the "lens error" notice. Well, two days after I started using it that message appeared, but turning it off and on was enough to move on. The quality of the pictures is to my perception really good. I don't think I need to search for anything else in this area. In terms of speed, it is not as fast as I expected (shutter speed) and charging the flash is also a slow process; however, once you get to know the camera you just get used to it and act accordingly. Video is very good, better than my Sony Handycam digital video(using a Pro Duo card), but once you start the video you can not zoom in or out One thing is that now I am getting too frequently an error on files but apparently it is due to the SD Card (I bought a very cheap 2 GB card). When I used its internal memory (very small BTW, just 8MB) instead of the card the problem was gone Regarding battery life, I usually charged every two other days, taking many pictures and videos, and yes, you need to carry the base to charge it. One thing here, I have noticed several reviews for downloading pics. My preferred way is just to take out the SD card and plug it into my lap-top. I haven't even installed the software CD as I just find it so easy to download pics this way. If you don't have one SD reader integrated to your lap-top or desk-top then less than $25 will solve that issue for you. One note on the SD card, get a good quality one and ensure it is a fast one. Notice that in the video mode this camera has a writting speed of around 11MB/second or so (please double-check this number); therefore your SD card must be capable of saving data at least at this same rate Finally, there is a good amount of "modes" and user settings so if you want something to play this can provide you with some fun.

Duration of ownership:

Strengths: MPEG4 movie mode, compact, fast, okay software.

Weaknesses:lack optical stablization, weak flash, need higher resolution and anti-glare LCD screen.

Overall Evaluation: I have a love-hate relationship with this camera. Pro:small, well built, good resolution, great movide mode (MPEG4 consumes little space yet produce great movies with sound @ 30fps), fast start-up, decent software.Con:difficult to take pictures without some bluriness due to hand shaking. The built-in digital anti-shake is just merely lower the resolution and tune up the ISO speed. Optical stablization would make this camera great. The flash is bit weak, has short distance. Also, the LCD screen is big, but lacking in resolution count and anti-glare. So, I love it when it works well and I really miss it when I need that tripod to make those clear shots. If Casio can improve upon those weak points, I will buy it in a heartbeat!

Duration of ownership: 10 Months

Strengths: The camera's not bad and I love the pre-video feature.

Weaknesses:Customer service is horrendous. Do NOT even THINK about purchasing from CASIO if you ever plan on using your warranty

Overall Evaluation: I have had such a miserable interaction with Casio's repair team. They do not respect their customers nor do they apologize for their mistakes. I sent them my camera over a month ago since my shutter broke. They fixed it in one day and proceeded to send it to the wrong city. Multiple phone calls later on my part, never theirs, they promise me they will overnight my camera. Never happens. I call again and they promise to overnight it. Never happens. I call again, same thing. It has been 3 weeks now of hearing their promises that turn into lies. I just want my camera back - all they do is send you a refurbished one anyway. I have called, emailed, faxed, etc. They do not allow you to talk to a supervisor or manager. They do not read your emails, even if they respond to them. I sent an entire email, beginning with my job number, to the repair center going into detail again about the situation with my camera, ending with me being frustrated with customer service and never intending on buying their products again. The email I get back? "Hi, I saw that you called asking for your job number, so I just wanted to be sure you were helped with that. Bye" What??? Of course I have my job number - that was in the first line. They didn't even READ my email or even allude anything in my email. It was UNBELIEVABLE. Today I called again, and I have been so frustrated and feeling so hopeless, I was starting to cry as I explained to them again about the situation and what terrible service I have received, when the customer service agent, Nabeel, outright laughed at me, mocking my concerns. They are unbelievable. I never have had such bad service even through not-so-reputable companies! Needless to say, I will NEVER purchase from Casio again, and neither will any of my colleagues that I have explained in detail my unfortunate course of events! DO NOT BUY CASIO PRODUCTS IF YOU EVER EXPECT TO UTILIZE YOUR WARRANTY. THE REPAIR CENTER IN NEW JERSEY DOES NOT CARE IF THEY DO THEIR JOB WELL OR AT ALL. Sorry to go on about this, but I STILL have not received my camera, and I am at a loss of what to do or who to contact. Please, DO NOT PURCHASE!
