DIWA Announces Silver Award to Casio Exilim EX-P505

17 June, 2005: DIWA (Digital Imaging Websites Association), a world-wide organization of collaborating digital imaging websites, today announces a DIWA Silver Award to the Casio EXILIM EX-P505 digital compact camera.

The reviewers were impressed to see how Casio’s engineers have managed to adapt the credit card size symbolizing the EXILIM concept, yet maintaining the professional SLR look as well as including a multitude of features normally found in much larger cameras. Most surprisingly is its powerful and high quality 5x optical zoom lens with focal lengths comparable to 38-190 mm in a 35 mm film camera. The EX-P505 also introduces stereo sound to movie recording, with VGA resolution and 30 fps in the high quality MPEG-4 format.
