Casio Exilim EX-V7 Digital Camera Review
The EX-V7 is powered by the Exilim Engine 2.0 for high resolution, high performance, high speed, power saving and ultra-compact configuration. This ultra compact and very slim digital camera comes with Dual Image Stabilizer (CCD shift system). It also combines Casio’s well-received Anti Shake DSP, which reduces blur due to shaky hands or a moving subject by using higher ISO sensitivity and faster shutter speeds. It is USB 2.0 compatible and comes with World Time function: contains a database with 162 cities from 32 zones and a built-in quartz digital clock and a calendar up to year 2049 (no wonder that this camera comes from Casio – a clock manufacture). Voice recording goes up to 36 min and, if associated with an image, 30sec.

Does anyone know if the Exilim Ex-v7 supports RAW file format?
Lau,
I wouldn’t call this a “review” really. It’s more a fact sheet about the camera with all information that can be found on Casio’s website or any retailer selling the camera. And their CCD shift system is legit for stabilization but the Anti-Shake DSP is all marketing bs — boosting the ISO adds noise to any camera and blows out detail. CCD Shift and optical stabilization are the only true forms of image stabilization that don’t degrade picture quality in the process. On a side note, you look kind of cute…
Matt,
No RAW support in the EX-V7.
