Myself have also done many researches on those digital camera review websites and ended up the same leading brands such as Canon, Nikon, etc. For an ultra-compact-size digital camera I was surprised that Casio received a very good technical review. For the attractive price I gave it a try and have been loving it for it's combination of sturdy construction, long battery life, quick startup, high quality movie file, and most importantly its full manual control features. In addition to its regular camera shutter/aparture controls, it also allows you to adjust the so-called image quality the way you like (sharpness, color saturation, etc). A few less-than-perfect things in my mind include the requirements of Casio's proprietary battery and docking for charging.

Instead of repeating the same points several excellent reviewers have made and have rated it 5 stars, I urge you to read the comments made by PhotoGraphics here in [...], which provide a down-to-earth evaluation of this extraordinary EXZ750.

Update Feb 2007: Still LOVE this camera very much for it's quick start up , fast auto focus, long LONG battery life. Also I just realized that this camera takes BETTER movie clip than my Sony Handycam camcorder on the memory stick !! (... of course it can't compare to the video taken on the digital tape.) Z750 has higher resolution, and I believe higher frame/sec as the motion is a lot more fluid. I also appreciate Casio's full manual control which has allowed me to play with the aparture, shutter speed, and flash and sucessfully take pictures of christmas lighting at night with or without people.

This is an incredible camera, Consumer Reports which I live by rated this a top pick and I know why, super vibrant pictures and very logical user friendly controls, I was going to get the Ex-z850, but reader reviews say it doesn't take good videos as this model, I can shot for at least an hour and the battery with screen on is just fine. I love this camera and don't plan on needing another for many years, you cant go wrong with this camera.

Super long Battery life
Excellent point and shot pictures
Sleek
Fun


Cons
A thumb button could be positioned better?

Add on to my review, have taken over 1000 pics, LOVE the camera and I am picky, battery life is incredible, I mean you don't even think about the battery, pictures and video are excellent, maybe my fault but RED cars don't come out good, I feel this is a BEST buy, user-friendly and excellent pictures. YOU cant go wrong and if you think you have grab another camera and compare.

I have owned a Casio Exilim digital camera for a couple of years. (the EX-750 model)
+ very easy/small to carry
+ easy to operate
+ large LCD screen
+ great pictures, vibrant color
+ decent low lighting photos
+ LONG battery / charge life

The LCD screen is much larger than the average camera has which makes it easy to view and plan your shots. It's also much easier to view them on the camera right away to see if you should delete and re-shoot. I also really like having the option of an optical viewer in case I am taking photos outside in the sun.

Even though this camera is very compact, it feels much more substantial than the slightly larger Canon I bought for my son.

Our camera (EX-750) has a movie option which works out well when taking pics of kids. Sometimes you don't have time to get out the camcorder.

One added bonus that I absolutely LOVE is the battery life. This camera lasts forever on a charge. I now take it for granted until I am with someone that missed a shot because their camera is out of juice. I just don't have to worry whether or not the camera is ready to go.
Do NOT overlook this feature!

It has a different setup than other digitals I have looked at. The camera sits in a very small 'docking' station. From there you can charge the camera, hookup the USB to transfer photos/movies to your computer, or plug in cables so everyone can easily look at the photos on your TV. We use this when we get together for family events. Everyone gets to see the fun from day right away.

I have thrown this camera in a small soft case in my purse, taken it to the beach, (I'm not always respectful with my equipment) and I have never had a problem with it.
I set the default picture setting to the best quality so I can crop afterwards to a smaller size if I want. (You'll need a larger memory card than the one it comes with) With the quality of photos I have been able to blow up photos to 20-24 and they came out great.

The timer function has allowed me to actually be in a few photos instead of always behind the camera.
Another +plus is that it takes good photos in relatively low light.

I would definitely put this camera on the list. The ONLY reason I would get a different camera is for more "optical" zoom. That hasn't really been a problem, however, because I can 'zoom' in when I print and not lose any quality because of the high resolution of the photo.

I needed a tiny camera and this one fit the bill. I love that I can put it in a jeans pocket. I am pretty wary of throwing it in a backpack, though. It seems somehow fragile, and I'm trying not to break it. Battery life is unbelieveable. Pictures on the whole, are nice and able to be improved if necssary with basic software. There are lots of fun features, but I can't say they are all intuitive. It does take some work to get through the manual. I've had it a couple of months now, and am still learning. All in all, I'm glad I bought this camera. I use it several days a week.

I am not an expert photographer, so I can't provide much technical information on the performance of this camera. But I can say, I am extremely pleased with this camera, especially for the price. It produces excellent quality photos. I've owned a couple different digital cameras that cost much more and did not produce as high quality images. The battery lasts a good long time, and it was easy and very inexpensive to find additional backup battery and memory cards. The viewer screen is nice and large, and clear, so you get a good preview of what your shot will look like before snapping the photo. It has allot of handy built in features, that are fairly simple to figure out and use, which was a big plus for me. The bottom line for a novice photo buff such as myself is the fact that this camera produces such high quality photos in just about any lighting and other conditions. I suppose the best way to sum up my review of this camera is, that if the one I purchased ever breaks, or becomes unusable for any reason, I will definitely invest the money to repair it or purchase another one just like it.

I bought the Casio Exilim Z750 for my wife Linda about 2 years ago and did not get around to writing a review for it until now. As you may have already guessed, if I am writing a review about this camera 2yrs. later, then it must be worth it. Yes, it is!!! The images on this camera come out incredibly clear. When you zoom in once the picture has been taken, the picture clarity does not diminish due to the 7.2mpx. As for video, we took a small video clip at our church and the sound it recorded was incredible, you could actually here every instrument along with the voices. To this day, this camera continues to amaze us, especially when you consider what we would've paid for if we would have bought the CyberShot.

Well, first the shipping only took three days, which is awesome! Had a few scratches but nothing really unexpected from a refurbished camera. Takes very good shots, both indoor and outdoor.

You have to fiddle with the settings to decide which to use for when. They provide a lot of already made settings called, "Best Shots" and each has its own scenario to take a picture for. I.E. Water Shot, Lush Green Shot and etc...

Batterly life is great on this. I recommend this camera to many of my friends due to its good video recording. It also has a straight up audio recording as well which is cool. The screen is a perfect size for this camera. Most often I find screens to be too small or oddly placed. I'll be adding more to this review as I progress with my pictures.

I rate the EX-Z750 by Casio #1 due to it's fine image quality & great design. The Exilim EX-Z750's slim case, huge LCD and easy to operate controls. What realy won me over was it's 30 scene modes! Wow I give this one 5 stars - you've got to try it to really appriciate it's #1 rating!

I bought the Casio Exilim EX-Z750 a few years ago because I read that it was a top performer for cameras in this class in Consumer Reports. I haven't been disappointed. I've taken thousands of photos and have been happy with the way it performs. The battery lasts an amazing amount of time, approximately 325 shots, longer than any similar camera I've owned in the past. It features a 3x, 7.9-23.7mm lens, equivalent to a 38-114mm lens on a 35mm camera. Maximum aperture ranges from f/2.8 to f/5.1, depending on the zoom position, and remains under automatic control. You can customize key operations to assign recording mode, exposure compensation, white balance, ISO sensitivity or self-timer functions to the left/right controller buttons. It's easy to change these settings by simply pressing the left or right control button. Most of the time I have it on "Auto" for point and shoot convenience at parties and such, but when I want that special picture and I have the time to adjust the settings it's nice to have that option.

This camera creates superior images in lighting conditions that are challenging for other cameras. You can select aperture priority, shutter priority, or just select one of the unique "Best Shot" modes to enhance your images. The 0.9-second continuous shooting mode and low light assist, help to capture sharp images such as fast action or low light. scenes.

You can use the MPEG-4 format or high quality movies can also be taken in VGA size (640 x 480 pixels) at 30 frames per second. The videos equal the quality of some point and shoot video cameras that I've seen. You can record voice-only audio or up to 30-second audio memos that are attached to still images. The Calendar feature shows a monthly calendar with thumbnails of photos on the day they were taken. You can also store special photos in the "Favorites folder." There is an Album function that indexes your photos in HTML format so they can be viewed with any modern web browser.

The camera has 8.3 MB of built-in memory, and it has a memory card slot that lets you use removable SD and MMC type cards like this one that I use SanDisk 2GB SD Memory Card (SDSDB-2048, Bulk Package). An easy operation copies images between a memory card and the built-in memory. It has a nice, big 2.5-inch liquid crystal display and a 3X optical zoom lens.

I'm posting a short compilation of photos I've taken with this camera and I'm also posting some in the "customer images" section above since the video display is pretty compressed to fit here. I hope this helps you in making a decision on the camera.

I buy and sell cameras and this is the best pocket camera I've found so far. The battery life is amazing. It has plenty of manual and automatic controls. It has a fast start up time and it's rugged.

You don't have to fiddle around with a lens cap either. The docking cradle is marvelous, just park the camera in it to charge the battery, transfer pictures to your computer, or watch a slide show. The large LCD
is a real plus.

On the negative side the LCD is useless in bright light and to take a macro shot it seems like you have to back up a bit then zoom in to get a focus.

All things considered especially at what it's selling for in 2009 this camera is hard to beat.
