Casio Exilim Pro EX-P700 (Casio NP-40)

Casio Exilim Pro EX-P700

The Casio Exilim Pro EX-P700 is a 7.2 megapixel compact digital camera with a fast 4x optical zoom lens made by Canon that offers a focal length of 33-132mm. The EX-P700 offers an extended battery life of around 260 shots and has a full range of manual and automatic shooting modes, including no less than 27 different Scene modes to help you achieve the correct exposure. On the rear of the camera is a 2-inch LCD screen, and inside is technology that ensures quick operation in terms of shutter lag, startup time, focusing and continuous shooting. Casio claims that the EX-P700 is a digital camera for semi-professional use, so does it live up to this billing? Find out by reading my review of the Casio Exilim Pro EX-P700.
