New 7.2 MP Casio camera with 3x optical zoom.
They have flown off the shelves in Currys, Dixons and PC world following the ads in the papers but are available online still. Free postage. Got mine today.

    It is a superb little camera. It isnt the smallest but it is certainly not big..... I bought one and im very impressed!
    2 + 2 = 4
    except for the general public when it can mean whatever they want it to.

    what are the main differences between this and the Casio Z750? both seem to be 7.2 mpixel and have comparable features i have used the Z750 and liked it but would like to know if anyone else has experience of these two models ?

    You can compare them feature-by-feature at click here. I reckon the Z750 edges it & it's dearer too.

    Used it a lot yesturday and impressed with the results. Having had an Exilim Z40 earlier, I was up to speed on the options and settings but found it easier to use. Plus it has standard batteries so no need to return to the docking station to charge up if you are caught out.

    Seems great VFM to me but I dare say the prices for these cameras will continue to fall.

    I have recently purchased one of the Casio Z120 cameras off PC World online. Whilst waiting for delivery I was wondering whether I had made the right choice with seeing other more established camera makes appearing to get cheaper and cheaper. However I have been getting some excellent results with this camera. In deciding on a particular camera I needed to look at what I wanted the camera to do. This included manual overide and other manual setting modes. Also a big point is being able to use rechargable AA batteries. AA rechargables can be picked up so cheap now with E-bay and other online shops. On some camera models ie the Casio Z750 it takes lithium-ion rechargebles which are more expensive. Yes the battery lasts longer but unless you have an expensive spare battery to hand then you can become unstuck. Also the Z120 has an anti-shake processor. Cant comment on this yet has not enabled it in the settings. The camera is simple to use if you want it to be, or more complicated if you wish to play with the various manual setting modes. Until I get used to it then I will use it in simple point and shoot mode.

    What is the need for 7.2 megapixels?

    But how big do you need to go.

    3.2 Meg will give very good quality A4 size.
