Connectivity
Jacks, Ports, Plugs – The Casio Exilim Z750 comes with a camera dock that has USB and AV-out jacks. An AC adaptor also comes with the Z750.

Direct Print Options - This camera is PictBridge compatible. When the EX-Z750 is plugged into the included USB cradle, one-touch printing is possible to PictBridge-compatible printers.

Memory
There are about 8.3 MB of internal memory included on the Z750. There is also a slot for an SD or MMC card next to the battery slot on the bottom of the camera. There is no card included with the Casio Z750; since 8.3 MB will store less than a half-dozen shots, this is clearly insufficient. Plan on purchasing at least 128 MB card to take advantage of the high resolution photographs and cool movie modes. All still images taken with this Exilim are recorded to the memory as JPEG files.

Other Features
ID Photo Mode – In the camera’s ID Photo mode, a frame appears with a circle inside it. The photographer must frame the subject’s face in the circle, then capture the picture. Printing passport photos is easy; the camera automatically knows to print them out in passport sizes.

Camera Dock – Included in the package with the Casio Exilim EX-Z750 is a camera dock that charges batteries and downloads files to computers or printers. The simple dock has two buttons: one for USB and one that says Photo. The USB button can be pressed for printing. The Photo button can be pressed for slide shows on the LCD screen. Besides having a USB port, the dock also has an AV-out connection for images and movies to be played on a television screen.

Audio Snapshots – When this mode is chosen on the main mode dial, pictures can be taken with recorded sound. In Playback mode, the sound can be played back by pressing the Set button.

L/R Key – The right and left sides of the four-way dial can be changed to adjust settings users play with the most. The left and right sides can be chosen to adjust White Balance, ISO, Exposure Compensation, Self-Timer, and Metering. This way, users don’t have to dig through menus for settings they like to change the most.

Self-Timer– There are three options available to users of the self-timer. There are 10-second and 2-second options, as well as a triple self-timer for those who need multiple shots or want to choose the best one.

Long-lasting Battery – The rechargeable lithium ion battery lasts about 325 shots. The included USB cradle also works as a battery charger.
