Casio Exilim EX-S880, EX-Z77 has a YouTube capture mode


What really captures your attention with the new Casio Exilim EX-S880, EX-Z77 is not their technical specs, but the agreement with YouTube allows the two digicams to harp about a "unique YouTube capture mode," and bundle in software "to provide ideal settings for recording, storing, and uploading video." Fortunately the specs look plum enough to warrant a look. The Exilim Card EX-S880 is a 8.1-megapixel camera that has a 2.8-inch monitor, SD / SDHC support, and comes in black or red motifs. The Exilim Zoom EX-Z77 is a 7.2-megapixel camera that features a 2.6-inch LCD and comes in four varying colors.

    Bought the camera EX S880. It is brilliant, great picture quality and the You Tube video function is top rate.
    However, my usb cradle is not recognised by my toshiba - Vista Home premium - laptop.
    I have searched the Casio website and to no avail. They have the firmware but no specific driver you can download for this camera.
    They just say that it is not needed for Vista users.
    I have resigned myself that I wont be able to transfer my pictures to my camera for some time (if ever).
    If anyone has any suggestions I would sure like to hear them!
