After everyone has had enough of cameras that come in vibgyor colours, that have touchscreen controls, offer functions and features that only youngsters would be attracted to, people will someday realise the importance of serious photography and want to know the nitty-gritty that comes with it. That day they would like to know what the shutter speed is and how it effects a picture, they will want to know it all, in short. That day, they will turn to cameras that will introduce them to the world of serious photography and put more controls into the hand of the clicker rather than deciding for him or her what their needs are. That will be the time when bridge cameras like the Casio EX-H5 will sell like hot cakes. This 12.1mp and 10x wide angle zoom cameras comes with many advanced features.
Design and FunctioningDo not be surprised when you look at the Casio EX-H5 and mistake it to be an old style analogue point and shoot. This lightweight camera, at a mere 150gs, comes with an easy grip, simple and minimalistic design and comes in colours like Midnight Black, metallic Silver and Devil’s Red. The Casio EX-H5 is a 12.1 megapixel digital compact camera sporting a 24-240mm equivalent zoom lens. The camera helps create beautiful pictures of people’s faces. This function ensures that faces are correctly focused and well exposed, adjusts the smoothness of skin and softens facial shadows caused by sunlight. The Casio EX-H5 is outfitted with a 2.7 inch LCD monitor and a CCD-shift image stabilization mechanism. With the new "high sensitivity CMOS sensor" each individual scene is recorded in outstanding brilliance and clarity. As a result of much higher light sensitivity compared to traditional sensors and the reduction of noise, at the same time images are recorded with brilliant colours, strong contrasts and sharp details even in poor lighting conditions. The heart of the new digital camera is the EXILIM Engine 5.0 and this provides better quality in terms of colour brilliance, noise suppression and image editing. It comes with 25MB of internal memory and is compatible with SD/SDHC cards.
