Casio Exilim EX-TR100 TRYX

At Casio, they like to do things a little differently, as evidenced in the EX-TR100, otherwise said the TRYX - camera compact ultra-plat with a unique design framework that can be twisted and curved to allow all kinds of shooting angles.


With his articulate and foldable screen cored handle, it is even possible to hang the hooks TRYX or use the image itself as a fortune when compose yourself or group portraits. It is certain that to appeal to its target audience of the bright young things, the search for a camera that they can keep close to hand for them and their friends with the photo.


Of course, it could be argued that the latest generation of smart-phones equipped with a camera offers exactly that, and with the style of the TRYX corresponding to that of a smart-phone, it clearly has its work cut out to prove that he can offer something extra.


Thus, is the Casio TRYX able to deliver the goods to go with its looks, or it is a matter of style all and no substance? Let's look more closely and discover.


At the heart of the TRYX is a CMOS sensor 1/2.3 inch back illuminated with an effective resolution of 12 megapixels. This is supported by the same engine Exilim HS image processor used in many other Casio cameras top of range that excels in the functions of recording high speed.


To the maximum 12MPx resolution images are saved in the 4: 3 to 4 000 x 3 000 pixel aspect ratio. The camera offers more options to save in 4: 3-5MP (2, 560 x 1 920) and VGA (640 x 480), with a 3: 2 (4000 x 2,656) option. The TRYX is JPEG only, with no provision for the Raw files without loss Records.


The TRYX fixed lens offers a generous 21 mm field of view (35 mm equivalent) with a maximum aperture of f/2.8 as impressive. Unfortunately, there is no optical zoom and magnification so all is the kind of digital zoom.


The TRYX is decorated with a transplant, monitor 460 k - dot, offering a touch screen on the camera control. As it has only two physical buttons - button on / off and a shutter - the TYRX operation button is almost totally dependent on tingling this screen with a finger. The screen brightness can be changed by the submenu settings with options 1, 2 and -1 available in addition to the default brightness.


The two main modes - Auto and Premium Auto - fire are fully automatic, with the second option on what is effectively an automatic mode of scene, that the TRYX analyzes the scene before it and selects the appropriate scene mode. You get better results with this automatic as standard mode, but he eats faster battery.
