The Casio Exilim EX-Z600 The EX-Z600 includes the latest version of the EXILIM Engine, featuring the Anti Shake DSP, which along with the Auto Macro and Quick Shutter functions, considerably reduces the incidence of blurred photos due to moving subjects or shaky hands. There is also a Rapid Flash function, which enables three consecutive high speed flash photos in only one second, allowing you to completely capture the moment without losing precious seconds between shots.

The EX-Z600 incorporates 33 Best Shot modes which are accessible with the BEST SHOT Button, allowing convenient one-touch access all of the scene selections, including Anti Shake, Old Photo which digitally revives faded colors and automatically adjusts for obliquity, even when photos are shot while still in the album, and the unique eBay Mode which allows users to take photos at a size that is optimized for display on eBay, and also includes Auto Macro for capturing images of small items such as jewelry, tags, etc.

6.0 Megapixel Resolution
The CCD-Chip of the EXILIM EX-Z600 supplies a rich 6 million pixels of full color brilliance. Such high resolution photos give you the advantage that you can print them out in excellent quality or edit them on the computer, making enlargement of details and poster size photo prints possible.
3x Optical Zoom Lens
The EX-Z600 may only be about as thick as your little finger, but it has a 3x optical zoom. And so you will be able to see the finest details and always be in the thick of the action with this ultra compact camera.
9-point Multi AF
9-point Multi AF means you never need to worry about focusing again. When you press the shutter button, the camera automatically selects one of nine focus points, based on which one is aligned with the nearest subject, and focuses on that point. This helps to avoid loss of foreground images, and minimizes the change of images being out of focus. In addition, the "9-Point Multi AF" clearly indicates areas in auto focus when photographing subjects with multiple focus points.
Exilim Engine
The Exilim Engine image processing module in the EX-Z600 incorporates several components in a tiny space, works extremely quickly and saves energy. Thus it offers high resolution, high quality images, high speed performance, and long lasting battery in a miniaturized package.
Anti-Shake DSP
The EX-Z600 features the Anti Shake DSP, which reduces blurring caused by shaking hands or moving subjects, while the Auto Macro and Quick Shutter features ensure that photos are properly focused.
Quick Responsiveness
Once powered on, the camera is ready to take pictures in approximately 0.9 seconds, and after the shutter is snapped, pictures are taken almost instantly, with only 0.005 second release time lag. The "Direct On" buttons allow quick startup of both shooting and viewing modes, and a one-touch "BEST SHOT" button allows selection of the appropriate mode for any shot. The camera also has High-speed image viewing at approximately 0.1 seconds intervals.
Best Shot Functions
The 33 scene "BEST SHOT" function enables selection of the appropriate camera setting for still photos via an easy to understand sample image menu. "Old Photos" refreshes faded colors of old album photos, bringing them back to life in digital format. The "Angle Correction" function corrects oblique shots to look as if they were taken from the front during image viewing. "Color Restoration" enables digital enhancement of faded colors in old photos during image viewing.
Movie Functions
Movies are recorded in VGA (640 x 480 pixels) at 30 frames per second (Motion JPEG), and using the "Motion Print" function, movies can be converted into a series of nine or one single image for printing. Furthermore, Movies can be zoomed in during playback, and the "Movie Editing" function offers three options (beginning, middle, end) for cutting unwanted scenes from a movie.
Powerful Fast Flash
The built-in flash has a "Rapid Flash" feature that enables three consecutive flash photos in one second, while the "Soft Flash" function reduces flash brightness when taking close-up flash photos. Furthermore, the "Flash Assist" mode compensates for poorly illuminated areas of the shot.
Built-in and Expandable Memory
The EX-Z600 has 8.3MB of internal memory so you can start shooting immediately. The storage capacity an also be greatly expanded with either Secure Digital (SD) or MultiMediaCard (MMC) media so you can save large numbers of photos and record movies in excess of an hour or more in duration.
Extra Large 2.7-inch TFT LCD display
With a large 2.7-inch diagonal screen size, the TFT color display of the EX-Z600 is so large that it takes up almost the entire back of the camera, and it is 3x brighter than the screen on previous Exilim models, making it easy to view- even in bright sunlight.
Includes a USB Cradle
The USB cradle provides a high speed USB 2.0 connection to your computer and simultaneously charges the battery. The USB 2.0 connection, transfers data at up to 480 Mbps and provides PictBridge capability for direct connection to many current photo printers. The AV connection also provided means you can even show your photos and movies on a television. In addition, the cradle permits the use of the camera as photo display device - just run saved pictures across the screen in a slide show.
