Art shot
Makes use of the image processing technology in the Exilim Engine 5.0 to create photos for scenery or human subjects that have the feel of a painting. The view in the LCD screen of the subject in front of the user can be switched between and oil painting, a crayon drawing, or a watercolor picture, allowing the user to select the preferred art style in which to photograph the scene.
Make-Up Mode
In addition to recognizing faces and adjusting focus and exposure accordingly, these cameras can make adjustments to smooth skin in images and soften facial shadows caused by sunlight, creating beautiful photographs of people's faces. The photographer can choose from one of twelve levels of skin beauty using different strengths of image processing, and can shoot after viewing the results in the LCD monitor.
4x Wide-Angle Zoom Lens (27mm)
An ultra wide angle 27mm lens reaching to 108mm (equivalent to 35mm film) allows a wide range of capture options. An Ultra wide angle lens allows for capture of grand vistas, or confined interior shots with not much room to maneuver. Its 4X zoom and anti-shake provides that extra extended reach and versatility when needed.
Premium Auto
Premium Auto enables the camera to automatically analyze the scene being photographed - including distinguishing night scenes, back lighting, a blue sky, green trees or a sunset - as well as sensing whether there is a face in the frame, the movement and position of the subject, and whether a tripod is being used. It simultaneously optimizes settings for exposure, ISO, sensitivity, focus location, photo blur correction, tonal range and color balance, and level of noise reduction.
Dynamic Photo
Thanks to the high-speed image processing capability of the new engine, still or moving subjects can be cut out of one photo and combined with a different image to form a composite picture. All of this can be done on the EX-Z800, without the aid of a computer.

The altimeter measures elevation levels between -2,300 feet and 32,800 feet.
Barometer
Predict the weather with reasonable accuracy. Casio’s Pathfinder timepieces automatically take barometric pressure readings every two hours. The measurement results are used to produce barometric pressure graph and pressure differential indicator.

While enjoying the great outdoors, there’s one tool no adventurer should ever be without. Perfect for the grand explorer to the afternoon hiker, the Casio PAW5000-1 Pathfinder timepiece will be sure to keep the modern-day Ferdinand Magellan on track and on time. This innovative model utilizes the second hand like never before. Depending on the mode, the second hand acts as a compass needle indicating magnetic north, an altitude differential pointer or a barometric differential pointer.
Featuring Multi-Band 6 Atomic Timekeeping with triple sensor, the PAW5000-1 model has a unique second hand which assists in compass readings. Equipped with Casio’s traditional Pathfinder triple sensor technology, the PAW5000-1 includes a digital compass, altimeter, barometer and thermometer, making this the all-in-one tool necessary for high energy, rugged, outdoor adventures. With a resin band, the watch provides a lightweight feel offering durability and comfort on every trip.

With the Multi-Band 6 Atomic Timekeeping feature, this timepiece automatically synchronizes with Coordinated Universal Time broadcast continuously by stations linked to atomic clocks located in the US, Germany, the UK, China and two in Japan based on the user's home city setting. These timepieces receive this signal several times during each 24-hour period, resulting in outstanding accuracy. They will even adjust automatically for Daylight Saving Time and Leap Year.
Tough Solar Power
Tough Solar technology features a unique power saving function and allows the Pathfinder timepiece to energize itself through even the lowest level of illumination; natural, solar or artificial light. The unique solar cell allows for the capturing of various levels of light. The power saving function is a separate technology which turns the display off after a certain period in the dark and is smart enough to judge illumination levels so as to not set off the auto EL backlight when surrounding light levels are sufficient.
Thermometer
A built-in thermometer displays and checks the temperature every five minutes. Temperature ranges are from -10° to 60° C (14 to 140°F). When activated prior to submersion, the thermometer may also be used underwater to test the temperature of a river or stream.
Altimeter
The altimeter uses a pressure sensor to detect current air pressure, which is then used to estimate the current altitude based on the International Standard Atmosphere preset values. You can use the current session records to keep track of high altitude, low altitude, total ascent and total descent values.
Barometer
Barometric pressure indicates changes in the atmosphere pressure. By monitoring these changes you can predict the weather with reasonable accuracy. Pathfinder watches take barometric pressure readings every two hours. Measurement results are used to produce a barometric pressure graph and differential pointer readings.
