Advantages small camera takes great pictures Disadvantages ? Last year I was very sad I woke up to find my house had been burgled the car stolen and my digital camera boohoo, but my insurance did pay out most of what was lost and I was sent vouchers for Jessop. So I went to Jessop to buy a replacement camera the one I choose was the Casio Exilim EX-Z750 Digital Camera, it's a zoom camera.
This camera can be bought for 150 on Amazon it's a refurbished one shop demo model. A brand new camera costs "£214. at at http://www.ukcamerastore.co.uk I think it cost me £245 when I bought it at Jessop in February, I can't find it in their on line store when I looked today.
I had been using a Fuji digital before it was a large S L R size camera not really what I wanted a good camera
yes but big. The Casio Exlim EX750 is a small neat camera measuring 3.5 x 2.3 x 0.9 inches (89 x 59 x 22 millimetres) and weighs just 5.6 ounces (159 grams) with the battery and SD memory card. This camera has a matt silver coloured aluminium body. It will fit neatly into a shirt pocket, a jacket pocket or a small handbag. So this camera is idea to take anywhere without you feeling too cluttered up with a cumbersome camera.
This camera is neat co's it has a built in lens cover which opens when the camera is turned on, Hubby is well known for losing lens covers for his S L R camera in the field so glad I will not have that problem.
Why did I buy this camera, well I felt it was a v good camera for my needs. My needs are to take good photo's of the grandchildren, to take good holiday photographs Just to take good general photo's I like the facility of a zoom lens to take pictures of things that are a distance away from me or to magnify small items just in front of me .I like to take flower pictures for identification but I did not need or want a professional camera with the facilities to take different lens. My Husband does a lot of insect photography and although my camera can take a pretty fair picture of a butterfly its not quite good enough for him
OK so I am going to take a picture switch it on at the top of the camera then compose the picture; hey I have a huge 2.5-inch, TFT colour LCD monitor it takes up most of the back panel. I found this useful at the V festival I wanted to take a picture of the bands and I had a head in front of me I held my camera high and could still see what I was taking a photo of. There is also a small viewfinder to press your eye up close to, I rarely use this .The LCD monitor also gives information about the basic camera settings battery power and other information.
The Casio exilim ex750 has a 3x, 7.9-23.7mm lens, which is the equivalent toa38-114mm lens on a 35mm camera. The aperture ranges from f/2.8 to f/5.1, remaining under control automatically. The lens will focus from 1.3 feet (40 centimetres) to infinity in normal shooting mode it has a Macro range from 3.9 to 19.7 inches (10 to 50 centimetres). You can focus the camera both automatically and manually I have not used the manual focusing mode because of my visual problems#(double sight and short sighted) but husband does use this as then he can focus on the butterfly he wants in focus rather than the scenery or the person in a picture. I usually take my pictures in best mode as it's easiest for me. But I might play around with the other modes sometimes. The best thing about digital cameras is you can delete useless pictures straight away from your camera with no developing charges The exposure control is automatic which makes it easy for me but if you wanted to expose your camera manually you could do this. There are is a white balance option for changing the balance for cloudy, daylight, fluorescent and tungsten settings. There are options for image sharpening and contrast too.
As well as taking still pictures this camera has got a movie function that has audio too, so I could take a short film of my grandchildren singing. The super life rechargeable battery allows me to take 325 shots on a single charge. The shutter speed as with a lot of digital cameras is a little slow picture taken 0.007 after the shutter is released, often if I an taking a still shot of that special moment with the children the picture is recorded too late and I miss the action, if I have the camera ready to take a portrait though the time seems to be fine. The camera has a built in flash. When I bought my camera I had to buy memory cards as none came with it. The camera did come with a USB cradle for connecting the camera to your computer also for recharging the batteries. I have two memory cards a 256 and a 128 megabyte card and two batteries, that way I never miss any pictures, useful for taking on foreign holidays so I do not miss taking pictures on the last days, a spare battery. The camera came with a software CD and a PDF instruction manual, I would really like a printed manual though. I like my camera it's easy for me to use its small and light gives great results. What more could I ask.
