Casio is a name more associated with watches and Hello Kitty phones than quality cell phones, but that doesn’t mean they can’t deliever one. This new 5 megapixel shooter from Casio is known as the Exilim C721, keeping the name of Casio’s line of digital cameras.

It features autofocus capability and a high resolution WVGA rotating display that makes it more natural to capture images while using a phone. The image quality and features won’t be as good as a standalone digital camera, but what are you gonna do?

Hello Kitty has re-spawned yet again. This one is an upgrade to the Casio Exilim 720. It’s the latest digital camera to pimp out Japan’s favorite cat and packs in 9 Megapixels and a 2.6 inch TFT. You’ll also get a 3X optical zoom lens and it can shoot video in MOV format.

Some other specs include digital image stabilizer, red eye reduction, 41Mb of internal memory and SDHC card slot. It also features a ring of pink crystals around the lens, so Hello Kitty can focus her evil energies on your subject.

The Casio CA001 features a generous 3.1″ WVGA touchscreen display, opening up to an alphanumeric keyboard underneath. We’re assuming you can operate the CA001 fully from the touchscreen, but have the option of using the keyboard as well if you like.

It’s also equipped with a 5 megapixel camera with autofocus, e-wallet support and video/audio-on-demand, all in a body that measures just 50 x 109 x 17.8mm and weighs 122g. That’s about all the info we have, but it looks interesting. When we hear more, we’ll let you know.

In a world filled with tech spies, you’re gonna get the occasional obligatory spy shot. This is the latest. Apparently, this is the Samsung Propel Pro and it arrives with some pro-level features. Stuff like Windows Mobile 6.1 Standard, an optical joystick, 3G, and presumably a camera.

That’s about all we know at the moment, but we hear that the QWERTY keyboard is decent. Nothing on a release date or pricing. Looks pretty decent.

I have tried on a few occasions to take pictures with my iPhone. It seems that no matter how brightly lit the room is, the camera simply can’t take a shot that’s not dark and grainy. Many other high-end camera phones offer a built-in flash, but so far, Apple has not added that feature.

Snapture offers editing software designed to run on the iPhone and it has now announced a new polycarbonate case that not only protects the iPhone from damage, but also adds a bright Xenon powered flash.

You might remember this virtual nerd girlfriend from several months back. The Dennou AR Figures virtual 3D girlfriends are for those extra lonely nerds who don’t get out much. I think the idea is that you would want to check in on her now and then, apply spankings as needed and occasionally give her gifts, all safe in the knowledge that she can’t run or call the cops.

You install webcam software and when your camera detects the special cube onscreen, it puts a 3D companion into your environment. It’s available right now in Japan for $125. And we don’t want to know what you two do in your spare time. A slightly NSFW video below

Okay, I’m worn out warning the world of the impending Hello Kitty Judgment day. I’m going to just accept this pink branded camera and relax. Would I like to rid the world of a trillion pink gadgets with a cat head? Sure. But I’m one guy. I can’t stop the Kitty on my own. Even that time I traveled into the past as if looking for John Connor, but really trying to prevent the sale of the first pink product, didn’t help at all. I’m just gonna face it. This is another Kitty item from hell. There will be more where this came from too. I’m okay with it. Really.

It helps that this Hello Kitty version of the Casio Exilim line of digital cameras is a pretty decent camera, with 8.1 megapixels and 3x optical zoom, 2.6 in LCD. Oh, and it costs about twice as much as the non-HK branded version of the Exilim at $538.70. Damn! See, that just gets me going again. It must be stopped. Soon little girls everywhere will kill me, by beating me senseless with their pink devices, but I must prevent this apocalyptic future.

Canon the other day unveiled three new digital cameras, among others, which fill out further its A-series line as well as its SX-series of ultra-zoom cameras. These cameras include the new PowerShot A1000 IS and PowerShot A2000 IS as well as the PowerShot SX110 IS. Pricing is set at around $200, $250 and $300, respectively.

Canon says these new cameras offer new looks, robust feature sets and lighter body designs. All should be available by the end of September. You can read full details after the jump.

The new PCP-1200 photo printer from Casio is aimed at those who care enough to send the very best. Or at least the very best that you can create. It has a 7inch widescreen touch display and keyboard so you can print text on post card sized paper.

You can also print photos Straight from your digital camera, cell phone and memory cards. You also get over 60 stamps like hearts, stars etc so you can girl it up to your heart’s content. Great for greetings cards of all types. The PCP-1200 photo printer is currently available in Japan for around $500.

Fish TV makes fishing more like a police stakeout. You’ll still be bored for hours, but the device will let you see what’s going on in the murky depths while you smoke away and eat take out food. Occasionally you’ll say to your buddy, “Subject is coming in to have a look. He’s thinking about taking the bait. Wait. Negative. Suspect fled.”

Fish TV gives you up to 50 feet of camera cable and the camera itself is equipped with infra-red lights that boost image brightness in the water. Your show will not be in color though, but black and white. The device retails for $99.99.

Casio is showing off this week a new 8.1-megapixel digital camera as part of its EXILIM line. It is called the Casio EXILIM Zoom EX-Z9 and will price around $160.

The Casio EXILIM Zoom EX-Z9, which is available this month, offers up a compact design with an included 2.6-inch LCD display screen. The camera has a number of features to entice purchasers, including over 20 shot modes, anti-shake technology and face detection.

The company most known for their instant film cameras and the instant film that went with them is closing it’s last film plants in Mass., a victim of the digital age. The fun instant Polaroids will soon be a thing of the past. To the horror of those who love all things retro, no more instant film will be produced.

Within the past two years, Polaroid had already stopped production on the instant cameras. The film will be available until around next year, so those who want or need more can still get it. It was only a matter of time before the 21st century caught up with Polaroid’s format. In the not too distant future, the only people interested in buying the film will be Hollywood production designers wanting to use it for authenticity in movies etc. Well, they had a good run, and captured many an embarrassing moment, the occasional ghost and various assorted naughty things. It’s been fun.

Occasionally you see a PMP that actually stands out from the crowd. This one definitely falls into that category. The WindTouch V80 is a PDA/PMP that runs on Windows CE 6.0. It comes with a 1.3-megapixel camera, 2GB of internal memory and micro SD slot. It supports most file formats like: AVI , ASF, MPG, 3GP, MP4, FLV, MP3, WMA, WAV, ASF, FLAC, BMP, JPEG, GIF, TXT.

This one is a real looker. Sleek and dare I say it, seductive in design. The price tag of $95 is not bad either. They did a great job of making this one stand out from the crowd.

This past June we wrote about Casio’s tough G’zOne Type-S mobile phone when it was released and we recently got a chance to get our hands on one to see just how tough this thing really was and what “water resistant” really meant. What we found is that the G’zOne Type-S lives up to its hype on standing against the elements and also had some nice surprises we were not expecting.

Casio Computer made an announcement yesterday in Berlin at the IFA, a consumer electronics trade show, that pushes the envelope outward as to how fast digital camera speeds can be. The company showed off its latest invention, a camera that can take a burst of 60 frames per second at its most maximum resolution or take VGA quality video at 300 frames per second (that’s faster than the human eye can see) thanks to a high-speed LSI image processing chip inside of it. There is also a feature called Pre-shot Burst Mode which will also record a sequence of images just before your finger presses the button, just in case something happens in the moment before you thought it was going to happen.
