The skinny on your EXS12

There are a few basic features to look for as a basis for comparing digital cameras — pixel resolution, image censors, memory, zoom capability, and recording formats. Lucky you, whether you're a seasoned or novice photographer, your new Casio Exilim Series EXS12 brings you a level of quality in each of these categories to make all of your photographic adventures a success. A 12.1 Megapixel resolution and 2.3" square-pixel color CCD image sensor deliver just the detail and image quality you're looking for. Both 3x optical and 4x digital zoom capabilities put every shot within reach, and a 35.2 MB built-in flash memory and SDHC/SD/MultiMedia/MultiMedia plus memory card compatibility provide sufficient memory for each shutter-bug sojourn. Finally, to fit your fancy, your new EXS12 gives you the ability to record still images as well as video and audio (See the Details page for more information).

YouTube — You're ready for it, and so is your EXS12

Keeping pace with your high-speed, web-enabled life, your new EXS12 features a proprietary, out-of-the-box presetting exclusive to Casio Exilim that makes it YouTube&trade ready. The EXS12 comes with bundled software allowing uploads to the YouTube server without even logging into the website. You can capture your spontaneous moments and seamlessly transition them to YouTube.

Magnificently memorable movies and movie memory

Sure, the still-shots delivered by your new EXS12 are fantastic, but some situations demand video footage. Record videos up to 1.5 times longer than standard MPEG-4 with the same memory capacity and picture quality. The H.264 version of MPEG-4 video compression technology included on your EXS12BK offers pure, vivid video in much smaller file sizes, so you can stretch your gigabytes and dollars even further. Since it provides 30-frame-per-second recording and reduces white speck noise in playback, H.264 technology delivers superior-quality video that can be easily viewed on most video-sharing websites. The future of video is in your Exilim EXS12 digital camera.

Say, you look kind of familiar

Few things are as unique as the human face. Capturing all of the features of family and friends' faces is now a reflex with your EXS12. With Face-Detection/Recognition, your Exilim EXS12 will automatically adjust for sharpness, shadow and light, after detecting and recognizing human faces in your shots. This technology also allows for auto-trimming and automatic zoom, giving you the control to customize all shots, whether portraits or group photos.

An LCD ideal for viewing in the field

Your ability to view each shot you take on your digital camera is one of the photographic advantages of the digital camera. Not all cameras, however, give you the same performance. Your new EXS10BK comes equipped with a 2.7" widescreen LCD viewscreen that delivers high-quality, high-resolution viewing of all still images and video with no additional equipment. Share your photos with friends wherever you go or make crucial decisions right in the field.

Chemistry 101 — Your EXS12's ionic battery

Because your new EXS12 digital camera is powered by a lithium-ion battery, it brings you more than just incredible power. First, because lithium has the third lightest atomic mass of any element, lithium-ion batteries are some of the lightest batteries available. Second, lithium-ion batteries have a lower loss-of-charge rate overall in comparison with other battery types and they do not suffer from "memory loss" or a decline in total energy capacity. The lithium-ion battery featured on your EXS12 brings you light-weight, long-lasting and reliable power for your digital photography needs.
