The Casio EX-S500 5MP Exilim Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom lifts the bar for family-friendly digital photography. As powerful as it is petite, this notecard-sized camera will pique interest and turn heads with its unique design. You'll win praise from your friends and family when you start sharing the shots and video you've taken. Whether it's a TV-quality video of your child's first step, or a large family portrait you've had printed for framing, the EX-S500 is designed to deliver.

And this camera proves that looks can truly be deceiving. At about the size of small wallet, with a stylish orange body, the EX-S500 is loaded with features that were formerly reserved for a camera twice as large and much more expensive. Included among the many features are:

• 5.0-megapixel resolution delivers prints of amazing clarity
• 38-114mm f2.7-5.2 lens (35mm film camera equivalent) with 3x optical zoom for close-up shots
• Up to 80 minutes of continuous MPEG-4 video with audio capture and playback
• 2.2-inch TFT color display

With a 5.0-megapixel resolution, you won't have to worry about grainy, pixelated images when it's time to print. The CCD (charge-coupled device) technology delivers beautiful images and combined with a high-quality lens, this camera is built to produce professional-quality prints with remarkable clarity, precision, and sharpness from edge to edge. You no longer have to sacrifice quality for the convenience that digital photography delivers. With an anti-shake system to minimize blur due to hand movement, auto-macro to ensure proper focus, and a quick shutter speed to catch all the action, Casio will keep your subjects looking great shot after shot.

And when it's time to make a movie, the EX-S500 will be waiting to deliver outstanding video that you can simply plug straight into your TV for instant viewing. With up to 640 x 480 pixels of resolution, and a zoom-in feature and digital stabilization that will keep your frames from shaking, you'll have the confidence you need to capture those once-in-a-lifetime moments.

In short, the Casio EX-S500 gives you everything you need right out of the box to start capturing moments with professional-quality photos and videos.
