Highly Efficient, Advanced Performance

• 7x Optical Zoom
  Regardless of the distance separating you from that breathtaking waterfall or history-making touchdown, you can keep a detailed eye on all the action, whether in video or picture mode. The EX-V8's built-in 7x, high-definition zoom quickly expands to a maximum of 33.2x* so you can switch from wide angle to telephoto (for capturing images at adistance up close) at the same high resolution level. Unwanted background chatter isn't a concern either since this Exilim zooms silently as you record video.
  *Valid for image resolutions with VGA

• MPEG-4 H.264 Video
  Record snap videos up to 1.5 times longer than standard MPEG-4 with the same memory capacity and picture quality. This rendition of MPEG-4 video compression technology offers pure, vivid video in much smaller file sizes, so you can stretch your gigabytes and dollars even further. Since it provides 30 frames per second at 640 x 480 and reduces white speck noise in playback, H.264 technology delivers superior-quality video that can be easily viewed on most video-sharing websites and, when combined with a wide video-shooting function (16:9 ratio on many Casio Exilims), plays true to your plasma or LCD television, regardless of size. The future of video is in your Exilim.

• YouTube Capture Mode
  A proprietary, out-of-the-box presetting exclusive to Casio Exilims, this mode promises to keep up with your fast-paced, web-enabled life. The camera comes with bundled software allowing uploads to the YouTube server without even logging into the website. You can capture your spontaneous moments and seamlessly transition them to YouTube.

• 4x Image Stabilization
  Four advanced Anti-Blur Technologies now allow your Exilim to maintain focus and ensure sharp photos and videos - even when your subject is advancing toward or retreating from you, or when the tourist next to you accidentally bumps your elbow in mid-shutter snap. CCD Shift Stabilization helps eliminate soft images by allowing for handshake in dim lighting, and Casio's enhanced Anti-Shake DSP, which reduces blur from shaky hands or moving subjects, combines with a new motion analysis technology to select the right ISO sensitivity and shutter speed to capture subjects based on their speed and direction. Even at high-zoom settings, the Exilim reduces image blur with its stabilization technologies, and when recording in video mode, a special mode kicks in to keep the action rolling smoothly.

• Face-Detection/Recognition & Auto Tracking AF
  Bring forgotten faces to the forefront. This feature recognizes and detects registered faces automatically. Face Detection allows you to detect faces; Face Recognition allows you to choose face and priority of focus among other subjects. Your Exilim will automatically adjust for sharpness, shadow and light, and the feature allows for auto-trimming and automatic zoom. Save time and energy by storing popular subjects for future photo opportunities!
  Have trouble catching your speedy subject - even when it's less than 4 feet tall? This quick-performance feature focuses on your subject with a Frame/Focus Lock that automatically tracks until the instant the shutter is pressed - making for a professional photo finish.

• High-Speed Continuous Flash Shutter
  Dark of night (or day) will not keep you from getting the right shot, every time. Flash plus High-Speed Continuous Shutter allows up to three images to be shot in a split second while dispersing an equal amount of flash light for each image, all with a single press of the shutter.

• Exilim Engine 2.0
  What's beneath the hood of our innovative Exilims? Powerful versatility in an ultra-compact configuration. The Engine delivers sharper photos and higher-quality videos using less energy than ever before - and at faster speeds, thanks to an improved signal processor.
