Personally, I was looking for a camera that convinces priced, verammt (!) Is fast, and can score a lot of sequential shots. For this purpose they should still be provided with an ordinary lens, which is the 24-300mm with the Casio definitely.
And it should not only ease of automatic functions can perform all manual settings, which can be a clipper's heart beat faster.
Here I would not go into details, technical specifications and tests can be found on numerous portals.
The Casio is really fast. And here Mr. Vettel would even be amazed (you'll forgive such shallow metaphor) It is ideal for high-quality snapshots and then you can chase the next immediately. Next the Series mode should be mentioned. Here are 10 frames / second in 10MP resolution there. Here the imagination is hardly a limit set.
Next are gimmicks to mention how the Panorama mode, which as usual multiple images shot and joined in turn. The quality is also good here.
There is also a highlight: the HDR mode .. here multiple images are shot in different settings in milisekundenschnelle and then "more perfect" to a picture added together.
This of course is a matter of taste. I've already shot pictures in which the people were perfectly exposed and the sky as well, because both settings were combined. But there are also cases where an improved image simply looks as if you had too much play on the colors in Photoshop.
The operation is simple and self-explanatory in my opinion. The menus are clear and easy to use.
Another plus is the dial on the cam, which can call up various settings quickly. That there also on other cameras, but unfortunately this feature with the increasing miniaturization of Cams is often forgotten.
The videos are also good, but I'm interested less and therefore I can say little.
A minus is the cumbersome charging. Unfortunately you have to take out the battery and insert in an external charger. This is also elegant!
Unfortunately, the image stabilizer is not very helpful at 12.5 times zoom. Here the picture blurred quite quickly and there is an art to shoot a nice picture.
I have certainly not mentioned all pros and cons, but a brief overview should be able to contribute to a decision to buy ..
Conclusion on my part (to try for a week): the perfect companion for everyday life, but also for more demanding images suitable .. You get good quality for a sharp price.
Anyone looking for a super-shoot camera, but can also make a holiday an unforgettable event and offers many technical gimmicks, is right here.
Those looking for a camera that to the smallest detail (10x magnification) offers the highest attention to detail, which should take up an SLR with appropriate lens, or purchase an expensive Sony digital camera, which can provide a better picture if necessary.
For the price you should not really have to think twice;)
