New 7.2 Mega-Pixel Casio Exilim Pro EX-P700

Published on 11/12/2004

"The EX-P700 has a high resolution 7.2 million megapixel CCD with 4X optical zoom, and a fast 0.01 second release time lag (with flash off, focus locked). The new Casio features a 2.0 inch preview screen. The EX-P700 also features a high speed continuous shooting function that can take 3 photos per second up to 5 photos." (Camborg)

I own a Casio EX-Z3 and I'm totally happy with it. It's too bad that the EX-P700 had to go with a 2" screen instead of the 2.5" that was on other members of the Exilim family.
