Casio Unveils 12.1MP Digicam
By: Shayne Rana   |   May 23,2007
Casio and its parent company, Casio Computer has announced the release of the newest model in their EXILIM series of digital cameras, the EXILIM Zoom EX-Z1200. The new camera is Casio's flagship EXILIM Zoom, equipped with 12.1 effective megapixel and 3X optical zoom. It's also equipped with a 2.8-inch Wide LCD display.


"The newest addition of the slim, stylish EXILIM line represents Casio's continuing objective to produce innovative products fit for everyone’s needs," said Bill Heuer, Vice President of Casio's Digital Imaging Division. "The EX-Z1200 incorporates the same characteristics from the EX-Z1000 and adds new features such as face detection and motion analysis technology which make photographs more life like."

The new flagship EX-Z1200 with it's 12.1 megapixel resolution is the highest available in any compact digital camera. The EX-Z1200 incorporates CCD-shift image stabilization and the latest EXILIM Engine 2.0 image-processing module with motion analysis technology. These features work together to help prevent blurry shots due to shaky hands, subject movement or poor focus when photographing moving subjects such as children or pets.

In addition, the auto-tracking AF system now combines both face detection and motion analysis technologies. With this new system, once the focus is locked in, it follows a moving subject's face, maintaining both sharp focus and correct exposure.

Exclusive to the Casio EXILIM line of digital cameras in the U.S., is the eBay Best Shot mode. The eBay Best Shot mode is one of 34 Best Shot Modes featured in the EX-Z1200. eBay Best Shot takes photos at a size that is image optimized for display on eBay, allowing picture takers to more quickly and easily create photos for selling items on eBay. eBay Best Shot mode also includes Auto Macro, an ideal setting for capturing images of small items such as jewelry, tags, etc., thus automatically adjusting the focus from acquiring fine details in close up shots to capturing large items from a distance. eBay Best Shot mode allows users to capture optimized images at an ideal size for eBay. For ease of use, eBay photos are stored in a special eBay directory.

The EXILIM Zoom EX-Z1200 will have a suggested retail price of approximately Rs. 16,248 ($399.99) and will be available at retail in mid-July in two colors – silver and black.
