Taking pictures is
part of my job as a blogger. & taking pictures that looks good is even more
important for me. So having more than 1 camera is not uncommon for bloggers
because we all have different cameras that serve different purposes. I have 3
cameras currently.
One of it is a
semi-pro camera that have interchangeable lens for me to take professional
looking pictures BUT it is very bulky and heavy!! I can’t keep it in any of my
small sling bags or clutches so it is always a hassle to carry out and my
shoulders ache after lugging it around for a few hours.
Another is a
flip-screen camera I got 3 years back that is pretty old and I usually bring it
around when I’m on my diving trip or when I’m out clubbing so that if I drop,
damage or lose the camera, it isn’t that heartbreaking for me.
& the last camera
that I got added to my collection is the..
New Casio Exilim EX-TR60!
I think this camera
isn’t a stranger to most of you because this is the latest of the TR series and
when the first TR camera was released; all the girls went crazy over it. It was
THE Selfie camera to get and everyone wanted it. It just takes such beautiful
selfie pictures with so little effort! The makeup mode brightens your skin tone
and it just looks flawless.
This is the super
dreamy effect that the camera’s Make-up
mode can do.
That gives you soft
blurry and fair looking skin.
Personally, I find
this too much for me and I prefer something less and more natural looking.
So I set the Skin Tone
and Soft Skin levels to zero for
this picture so that you can compare what it is like with and without the makeup mode.
I was testing out if
this camera is only good for selfies because I want a camera that can cater to
my other photography needs. I want one that takes good pictures and this also
takes pretty awesome macro shots.
Brought the Casio Exilim
TR60 with me when the fiancé and I went on a coffee date, love the wide angle
lens that can capture both of us from across the table!
It is able to capture
my cappuccino without me having to bend down or lift the cup.
My other cameras would
not have made it easy for me to capture this shot.
& taking selfie on
the go is so easy now!
Just snap and I am
happy with the results. No kidding! I took only 1 shot for this picture.
& here’s the
dessert that we shared.
See what I mean by the
camera isn’t just meant for selfies? I use it to take pictures of food too!
& best of all, I
love the size and appearance of the Casio Exilim TR60.
It is so sleek and
pretty!
I’ve had this trial
set for 3 weeks and I find myself bringing it out daily in my bag because it is
so light I don’t even bother taking it out of my bag. Compared to my semi-pro
camera that is so heavy, I only bring it out when my fiancé is meeting me because
he drives and I can leave it in his car.
It comes in a total of
4 pastel colors and I’m torn between getting the pearl white one or the tiffany
blue one! Yes, I’m actually really going to purchase this camera after I return
my trial set to Casio Singapore because having used it for 3 weeks, I’m sold. I
need it in my life!

The camera is designed
in a way that it can be angled into a standing position like this.
So it is a like there
is a mini tripod is built-in the camera.
This is very useful
when it comes to taking group pictures with the girls because we will usually
just leave this on the table, set the timer and get into position & all of
us will be in frame perfectly!
No more restrictions
when it comes to photo taking!
The newly developed
lens has outstanding optic qualities, and the high brightness LED captures even
more beautiful images in the dark or backlit conditions.
Any angle, any place,
any time, it really is the ultimate
selfie tool!!
This was the 2nd
picture that I took and it turned out to be one of the best selfies I’ve taken
so far.
I was using the makeup
mode but I set it really low because as you know, that is what I like.
[Skin tone +2, Soft
Skin +1]
My boyfriend was
sleeping and I was happily selfie-ing away. I just can’t stop lah! All the
pictures just turn out looking so good effortlessly. Normally if I am taking
selfie with my semi-pro camera, I would always take pretty long to get the
right angle because it just feels awkward and clumsy to do so with a big camera
and by then after 2-3 shots, my arm gets tired due to the weight of the it. So
I always use my iPhone camera for selfie instead but… the picture resolution
and quality isn’t good.
I even gave up on
taking selfies for a while..until I got my hands on the new Casio Exilim TR60!
Another thing that I
really like about it is Casio’s Make-up Mode is that the new technology not
only smoothen your complexion and allows you to adjust your skin tone, it also
distinguishes and captures features such as hair, eyebrows and eyelashes
crisply and clearly, making for enhanced, yet realistic portrait shots.
Selfie never stops,
even when I’m lying in bed watching the TV. Haha. Anyhow take also sure got
instagram-able pictures one.
Having this Casio
Exilim TR60 just makes it so convenient for me to snap pictures of myself
because it feels very much like a phone, so small, light and I can bring it
everywhere with me without any fuss.
I even brought it to
the pool with me and the colors are so pretty.
Zero edits yah.
I tried taking night
scenery of with it too and it turned out not bad right?
& there’s a new
feature, the Selfie Pad.
To activate it, just
double tap on the side of the camera and you can do it all with just one hand.
The Selfie Art Feature allows you to add
filters to your image! There are 6 artistic effects to personalize the self
portraits.
High Key
gives a natural lighting effect, Foggy gives a softer ambience, Fairy
accentuates feminine facial features, Nostalgia evokes a sentimental
mode, Vivid brightens the photo and Square automatically adjusts
image ratio to easily share on social media (think Instagram).
Besides the awesome
fact that this camera has built-in WIFI,
it now automatically transfers your images to your smartphone!!
EXILIM EX-TR60 is the
first of the EXILIM-TR range to incorporate Bluetooth® Smart Technology,
enabling faster and more stable connectivity to a smartphone via the EXILIM
Connect application2.
Once connected, ladies
can control the camera remotely and even continue to view, select and edit
photos on their smartphone when the camera is switched off. Photos can then be
shared instantaneously with friends and family through Scene3, a
cloud-based photo album via EXILIM Connect.

I didn’t expect myself
to love the Casio Exilim TR60 that much because when I first received the trial
set, I thought I would just use, review and return it to Casio when my 3 weeks
is up. But I didn’t expect myself to actually buy it now. I can’t wait to
receive my brand new set!
