Casio Exilim EX-Z750 and iPOD Camera Connector

Dear All,

Just treated myself to the Casio Exilim EX-Z750 camera and wanted to use a 20GB Colour iPOD and the Camera connector to transfer JPEGS / AVI Files to the iPOD for storage while away on vacation.

Before I make an expensive mistake and purchase the iPOD and Connector, can anyone tell me if they have been successful using these items together. The Casio used a 'dock' for charging / USB transfers.

Thanks in advance for any help

David-

Just saw your post...I too bought an Exilim camera today and I have a question...How did you get the CD-ROM that comes with the camera to install on your computer? It prompted me and said I need to be using os9 and I'm on OsX any ideas?

Hi Jesse,

Great Camera isn't it ?

Unfortunately I can't help with the Mac connection, as I'm with the 'dark side' i.e. using a PC - lol, however I can point you to some places that I found very helpful for all things EX-Z750 related.

Firstly after charging your camera fully, you should perform a Firmare update from Version 1.00 to 1.01. This corrects over-saturation in colour, a whining noise on HQ movies and the odd focus problem. Follow this Link to Casio's site, enter the Serial number under the camera (but don't include the letter at the end or it'll never download - took me hrs to work that one out)

Secondly, head over to Digital Photographer Review:

http://www.dpreview.com/reviews

and head into the Casio Forums, the answers to everything about your new camera will be in there, use the search for easier access.

In the end I gave up on the iPod, bought an external 'USB to go' casing for a laptop drive for photo storage ! And bought an MP3 player that's not named after a fruit (sacriledge I know). 1 day later and I find that the Casio does work with the iPod photo (darnit!)

Anyway, hope you enjoy the camera, let me know how you get on.

Cheers,

Dave.
