Casio Exilim EX-Z750

WARNING: Do not buy any Casio Exilim cameras! While their fit and finish are superb, and the pictures are excellent, they don't hold up to even the dust within pockets, making it useless for its intended purpose. Furthermore, I've heard terrible things about Casio support in dealing with this issue; I'm not encouraged about the reception my cameras will receive. An update will be posted. This saddens me a great deal, as I've grown to love these cameras. I have, instead, purchased a dustproof and waterproof Pentax Optio W10.

Friday 8 July 2005

My Casio Exilim EX-Z4 is experiencing technical difficulties, and so it's going to take a trip under warranty. So I visited eBay and bought an EX-Z750, a 7.2 megapixel replacement. Today it arrived.

The amazingly sharp pictures from this thing are 3072 by 2304 pixels. The huge 2.5-inch LCD, which takes up most of the rear, makes it really easy to use.

It has a wheel to select the modes (still, movie, audio only, etc.) which has a tendency to be moved in my pocket, but that's my only complaint thus far.

I'll have a bit more commentary after I use it for a few months. (Update: Sadly, you've seen the news, above. Another Exilim to sucumb to regular use. Meh.)

Have you found errors nontrivial or marginal, factual, analytical and illogical, arithmetical, temporal, or even typographical? Please let me know; drop me email. Thanks!
