I got my first digital camera.. Finally!

I never really owned a digital camera before today , not even in a telephone , so this is really exciting for me. I finally got my first one which is basically the new Casio Exilim EX - Z750. ( Mashallah!! I don't want anything to happen to it .. lol ).




Some of it's features :

# 2.5" digital TFT Color LCD display (115,200 Pixels - 480×240 res.)
# 3x Optical zoom, 8x digital zoom
# Still Image Resolutions: 3072x2304 to 640x480
# Video Resolutions: 320x240 to 640x480
# Contrast AF, selectable between spot, 7 point multi, free AF area switching
# Exposure Metering: Multi-pattern, centre weighted, spot
# Exposure Control: Program; manual exposure
# 8.3MB onboard memory; also takes SD & MMC cards
# Triple self-timer with 2 or 10 second settings
# Continuous shooting modes: Normal, zoom, multi
# Automatic Flash system with Red Eye Reduction
# Manual and automatic White balancing (6 modes)
# Timekeeping for 32 time zones & Auto-Calendar that goes up to 2049
# Built-in speaker (mono)
# SUPER LIFE rechargable Lithium-Ion Battery - up to 190 minutes of continuous shooting

( Note that I don't really understand half of that , but I will be reading the manual from cover to cover to get it all right!)

I got a pretty decent offer for it in Shah Nagardas , they even gave me a 128 memory card for it which carrefour did not offer , and it was actually a bit more expensive over there.

Anyways , I didn't try my new baby yet cause It's supposed to charge b4 I start using it , but will most likely spent the whole day of tomorrow messing around with it.

7.3 Mpixels? Wow. Thats the highest resolution I have seen in a camera so far. Once you start using, can u pls tell us what size is the pic?

Mashallah, it looks great. Does it come with a cover? Sounds like we need to go to some nice place to test it out :p

The camera doesnt come with a cover, and the one they gave me isnt any good. I am going have to buy a decent one for it later on.

Why didnt you get a Sony Cybershot?? More features.. Larger internal meomory.. Slimmer and lighter.. And besides all that ... Its Sony.

Unknown said...

snooky : I checked the sony out , and well I prefered the features of the casio alot more. I've been trying it out today..and it really is an excellent camera.

NiGhTFaCe said...

Okey, I will be waiting for that.

Mabrook Nabhan. On the basis of the first picture you posted I'm looking forward to lots of great pictures from you and your camera. One thing though: I think 128mb might be too small for a 7.2 megapixel camera so you might want to buy a larger memory card or a second 128mb card.

Unknown said...

Muscati : Thanks . I already have a 256MB card which my bro gave me , so I think I'm good for now. :)

Enigma said...

mabrook nabi.. wise choice!

TripleTee said...

muscati said...

Unknown said...
