Tokyo- (PanOrient News) Casio Computer Co., Ltd. announced today that it will release a new EXILIM compact digital camera, the EX-ZR20, on March 16.
This newest addition to the EXILIM family of digital cameras boasts a wide-angle 25 mm, 8x optical zoom lens and is packed with features that make taking fun, beautiful photos effortless anywhere, anytime, Casio said in a press release.
The new EX-ZR20 is powered by the EXILIM Engine HS, which delivers both high-speed shooting and high-speed image processing, giving users a stress-free way of shooting beautiful pictures in rapid succession. Casio new EX-ZR20 includes features such as a Rapid Shutter, which shoots in as little as 0.26 seconds between photos and has a 0.13-second high-speed auto focus.
Additionally, the camera's “Premium AUTO PRO” function enables state-of-the-art auto shooting and automatically merges images taken with high-speed continuous shooting according to the shooting conditions, to dramatically improve final image quality in challenging situations such as backlighting, night scenes and zoom shooting.
“High-Speed (HS) Night Shot” is another function that combines images taken with high-speed continuous shooting, producing bright shots of scenes that appear dark to the naked eye—all without using a flash—and delivering sensitivity up to the equivalent of ISO12800. The“Art Shot”function offers seven different effects, including toy camera and miniature effects, Casio said.
