After unpacking, I realized that the Casio is very valuable to the touch and is in good hands even in my large hands; it fits comfortably in your hand. In in your pocket it fits well, it's just thumb Dick. So almost perfect for me. Battery is fully charged in about 180 minutes as it was also in the guide that contains the first steps. Ne 'big' instructions drum with everything and unfortunately drann there only on the CD. Memory card first diverted from the other camera (of course previously formatted) and off we went. And I must say that Casio does her job on the whole very good. The 7-times zoom is working properly, but very fast and therefore somewhat imprecise. It takes just by 0.5 seconds between no and 7-fold. Lagnsam not going irgentwie. Only wenns goes into the digital Breicht makes it slower. And there he there three types. From the 'normal' digital zoom, as it exists in all cameras, which of course has a schlechteere Bilfqualität. In the two SR-zoom multiple images are captured and charged by the object. That too is not perfect, but deutlsich better than the standard digital zoom. While looking at the computer must be described in this SR-images as well. In the original-size, however siehtman but pixels. As I said, better than the standard, but not better than purely optical zoom.
The HDR effect does his job but erstaumlich well. Since advertising has not even lied :-) also the HDR-Art mode is really good, however, I see myself more as a gimmick. Despite this great effects come out. But see the images no longer unwind after photo of, but rather as if they were painted (they set sample images).
The Casio provides fast and precise focusing even under low light conditions. After nearly 100 test shots was none disarming. Also, the stabilizer erbeitet well. Wonder there is not, but I did not expect.
The scene modes do their jobs well. Unfortunately I could not test the sports, children, or Haustiermodi, everyone else do their thing but really good.
Unfortunately, you can in some modes the isovalues ncht limit and just outside wenns dawn and dark, dei values are fast high. Then look to image noise as nch be expected. Allergings I have firstly already gesehenn worse noise and secondly, it is up to ISO 400 or never scarce. For the size and the price it is more than fine.
One can already beartbeiten and who wants to decorate with all sorts of motives, the photos in the camera. But that on the edge just as mention; I do something but rather in large on the PC.
Positive features:
- Small and Kopakt (for me), valent appearance, good handling
- Good photos in the automatic, the extended automatic and scene modes
- Natural color Weider gift
- The SR-zooms doing a good job, so you can pick out from 7x almost 14way, losing almost without quality
- Quickly ready for recording, ideal for snapshots
- Without manual control many settings
- Good image stabilizer
Negatives:
- To quickly zoom, you can hardly precise control
- In some modes not Isobegrenzer
- Self-timer can only be controlled from the menu
Neutral:
Getting used to the menu
For me this is definitely a buy recommendation !!
EDIT 03:01 .: For me one of the best compact car that I held in my hands (own who tried of friends in e-market, etc.), because the Finepix F300EXR was n real letdown against, or because I had n Monday device) ,
