The Slimmest Camera - Casio Exilim Zoom EX-Z150
Casio has expanded its Exilim digital still camera range with a slim 8-megapixel model the Exilim Zoom EX-Z150, which packs a wide-angle 28mm lens with 4X optical zoom so users should be able to get more into a picture than with many other digital cameras.
The camera is 2 cm thick, 9.7cm wide by 5.7cm tall and is the thinnest camera in its class, according to Casio.
Apart from features like anti-shake, face detection and a 3-inch LCD monitor, one interesting feature is the YouTube shooting mode that records video in a file format and resolution preferred by YouTube, so the videos won’t be re-encoded by the site and should maintain their quality. Just an indication of the impact that YouTube has on products.
The camera will go on sale in Europe from August and is expected to hit the U.S. market by September.
