Casio Exilim EX-Z700 First Impressions Review
Previous: Page 5
Control OptionsNext: Page 7
Connectivity / ExtrasPicture Quality / Size Options
The Casio Exilim EX-Z700 shoots JPEG images with 7.2 effective megapixels. Its top resolution is 3072 x 2304 pixels and the other image sizes available include the following: 3072 x 2048 (3:2), 2560 x 1920, 2048 x 1536, 1600 x 1200, and 640 x 480. When users scroll through the resolution options, the maximum print size appears and flashes. There are three compression settings available for each image size: Fine, Normal, and Economy.
Picture Effects Mode
There are lots of picture effects available before taking the picture, but not many can be added in the playback mode. The Casio Exilim EX-Z700 has Black & White, Sepia, Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, Pink, and Purple filter options in the recording menu. Also there are contrast, sharpness, and saturation controls with whole steps in a +/- 2 range. There is no live view with these, so it's hard to see the difference between all the settings. In the playback mode, there is a Color Correction option but it accesses the Keystone function instead. The Keystone function has its own spot on the playback menu, but it doesn't do anything to pictures. Thus, users can straighten images but cannot correct color. Overall, the Casio Z700 has decent options while recording but the choices dry up in playback.
