Traveling and photography--a winning combination that just got huge boost from Casio's Exilim Hi-Zoom EX-H20G Digital Camera With Hybrid GPS (Black), the world's first digital camera with autonomic indoor positioning through Hybrid GPS. Not only does the camera always tell you exactly where on earth you are, it even keeps track of your position when you're indoors, where it can't receive signals from the GPS satellites (that's the autonomic part). When the camera is turned off, it still takes readings every 10 minutes. The result is that you can geotag photos and videos with ultra precision, and you can see your current position on a map displayed right on the camera's bright 3" LCD monitor.
The EX-H20G has a treasure trove of useful travel information in addition to the map--a world atlas including detailed maps of 140 world cities plus 12 cities in Japan, 10,000 photos of popular sights world-wide, digital compass, and a location name database with 1 million entries so the camera can display the name of your location.
And let's not forget that this is a camera--it's got a 14.1MP CCD sensor for high resolution photos, a 10x zoom lens (24-240mm equivalent) that carries you from very wide-angle for landscapes and tight spaces all the way to long telephoto to get you close to your subject (plus macro for ultra close-up photos), Premium Auto setting that automatically optimizes all camera settings for any scene you choose to shoot, built-in flash, white balance options, image stabilization to prevent blurry photos due to hand shake, high sensitivity up to ISO 3200 for low-light pictures and dazzling HD video at 720p resolution. And it does it all with very low power consumption, using just 1 rechargeable lithium-ion battery. It's time to put on those travelin' shoes.
- The First Digital Camera W/Autonomic Indoor Positioning Through Hybrid GPS
- The EX-H20G is equipped with a Hybrid GPS system that combines a GPS engine with autonomic positioning made possible by a motion sensor. Even if no signals are received from GPS satellites when indoors, the system consecutively tracks the user's location by employing an original algorithm using a three-way accelerometer and a three-way direction sensor. When the user goes back outside, the system automatically updates the positional information of the indoor location based on the exact location determined by GPS reception. Even when the camera is powered off, the GPS system continues to search for satellite signals at 10 minute intervals. This is an ideal system for a digital camera, allowing it to immediately track location data at any time and any place.
- Highly Accurate & Speedy Position Tracking, Low Power Consumption
- The EX-H20G employs Casio's advanced low-power technology, which ensures that the camera consumes only a small amount of power. Power consumption is suited for the various situations in which the EX-H20G will be used, including power-on and power-off, satellite acquisition and the three-way accelerometer and direction sensor that work in the background even while the camera is off. With the EX-H20G, users can rest assured knowing that they won't need to sacrifice battery life to enjoy highly precise and speedy position tracking.

- Premium Auto Function Produces Beautiful Photos W/Just a Press of the Shutter Button
- Premium Auto enables the camera to automatically analyze the scene being photographed - including distinguishing night scenes, back lighting, a blue sky, green trees or a sunset - as well as sensing whether there is a face in the frame, the movement and position of the subject, and whether a tripod is being used. It simultaneously optimizes settings for exposure, ISO, sensitivity, focus location, photo blur correction, tonal range and color balance, and level of noise reduction. Images are analyzed pixel by pixel to apply different correction to people and backgrounds. Premium Auto delivers an advanced level of full auto photography, ensuring high quality photos with just a press of the shutter button. Landscape Makeup processing, which creates clearer landscape photographs, operates automatically.
- Equipped W/Newly Developed EXILIM Engine HS
- The newly developed EXILIM Engine HS for advanced image processing boasts a multi-CPU and two parallel image processors, enabling the EX-H20G to accurately capture the genuine character of photo subjects with high-speed.
- Powerful Zoom Maintains High-Resolution Image Quality Through 15x
- The EX-H20G is outfitted with a 24mm ultra wide-angle, 10x optical zoom lens which offers a 35mm film equivalent focal length of 24mm-240mm. To enhance the zoom range even further, Casio incorporated its Single Frame SR Zoom in the EX-H20G, which extends the camera's 35mm film equivalent telephoto focal length to 360mm, for 1.5 times the optical zoom or a total zoom range of 15x. Furthermore, the EX-H20G features built-in CCD-shift image stabilization to help reduce photo blur from hand movement. These features allow users to photograph any kind of scene, from enormous structures in sightseeing areas to scenic views at a distance.
- Dynamic Photo Function for Creating Composite Moving Images
- These EX-H20G also features Casio's Dynamic Photo function, which makes it easy for users to create "moving photos" right on the camera by cutting moving subjects from the background in images taken with continuous shooting, and combining those images on a different still or moving image background. With Dynamic Photo, it is possible to make multiple characters move independently of each other against a background of moving images up to as long as 20 seconds. These capabilities encourage users to explore their creativity and make it more fun to create images. Sharing is also simplified as included software makes it easy to upload images to YouTube or post them to a blog.

Comments about Casio Exilim HI-Zoom EX-H20G Digital Camera (Black):
I used this camera mostly for work purposes. Many of the projects I work on require geotagged photos, as well as the direction of the photo. The gps worked flawlessly and obtained a position faster than every other gps camera I have used. I am utilizing the function that allows the camera to grab a location even when turned off, however it has been over a week and the battery is still going strong. The compass also worked well. I had taken some pictures underground(in a tunnel) and the location and direction were correct. The image quality is very good, as is the display quality. The only bad things I can say about the camera is it is slightly larger than most point and shoot cameras on the market, also it is a little slow at shutting down and retracting the lens. Otherwise I am very satisfies with this camera and would recommend it to anyone who needs the gps and compass functions. Excellent camera.

Comments about Casio Exilim HI-Zoom EX-H20G Digital Camera (Black):
I'm very active in mountain biking, road riding, & hiking in all weather & all over so I upgraded from my last Casio (which I dropped) to include the hybrid-GPS which makes this one a bit bigger. I need compact, easy to use yet wonderful quality pics. I have this. I frequently get comments about my photos like: What kind of camera do you have? You should enter this in a contest.
Haven't tried to mess with the GPS function yet so no comment there.
My complaint would be I'd love a viewfinder because it's so hard to make out your terrain in bright light on the LCD.
Another drawback is that the battery cover latch seems to open too easily. I compensate for that by covering it with a bit of electrical tape.
The zoom is great; however, when you zoom all the way it is very difficult to not shake unless you can use it on a tripod. (I'm sure this is true for all smaller cameras.)
All in all, since I'm not willing to carry a heavier, bulkier camera, I'm very happy with my Casio. If I ever get more time, I know I could grow as a photo enthusiast by delving into all the various options on this camera.

Comments about Casio Exilim HI-Zoom EX-H20G Digital Camera (Black):
Camera takes great pictures and has lots of features. Good battery life. However, if you want a camera with GPS accuracy printed on the pictures, try the Panasonic. GPS system works fine but it doesn't give an accurate presentation of my current position. I live near Tampa but the GPS location says Cuba. I can't recommend this camera ONLY because the GPS feature needs a fix and even with my complaints, an update has not come forth as this is written.
