Casio EX-ZR20
Sponsored Review
This week, thanks to OMY and Casio, I had the opportunity to pick up the latest Casio EX- ZR20!
Every Blogger should own a point and shoot camera, as it is just a bit too heavy to lag a heavy DSLR where ever you go. Hence, a handy pocket size camera like Casio’s EX-ZR 20 is very useful!
Picking up the camera, I was impressed with the capabilities of the camera!
1) An important feature of this camera is its Response Time. Don’t you hate it when cameras are slow to respond to your actions! This lag time is a real headache especially when you need to take pictures of your kids or your pets.
With a response time of 0.024 second shutter release time lag and 0.27 second shooting interval – the camera promises stress free photography as you chase after the kids around the house.
2) My Nikon D90 (DSLR) which weights a ton, allows me to take up to ISO 3200, but with some loss of detail. This little Camera allows me to take images up to ISO 12800.
This means that you will be able to capture pictures even in a disco! Taking pictures in dimly lit areas is really important, as many restaurants and night spots, are too dimly lit, to enable good pictures!
3) And the Best thing about this camera which my Nikon definitely cannot do is HDR!
In case you are wondering, High Dynamic Range is the ability to take photos with different exposures of the same scenes and combing them, so that the photo is properly exposed.
For example, the photo on the right offers richer light details as compared to the one on the left. HDR offers the normal consumer, better ability to take good pictures, even with poor technique! This is especially important for camera novices like ourselves!
I can’t wait to start using the camera, and show you the pictures I have taken with my new camera!
In fact, this camera is a real fool-proof Camera! With its special Premium Auto Pro Functions, you don’t need to have to be an expert to take good pictures, and this camera proves it!
