Wizard software will let you link together
clips, but you must save them as dv or mpeg1/2 files which are much bigger
and the conversion process is very slow. I searched the net and found a
program called avi joiner to quickly splice together mpeg4 clips.
As for the camera computer interface, I have had trouble moving large
video files from the camera to my HDD. The process errors out and I get a
message that the connection to the camera is lost. I have to cycle power
on the camera and try again. I always get them off eventually, but it is a
pain. I haven't tried it with a different computer, so it might not have
anything to do with the camera.

More than worth the price!!!, January 4, 2006

I ordered the SanDisk Ultra II 2.0 GB and I use Windows XP and at first, I
followed the directions to a "T" and it just wasn't working. I searched
the internet to see if anyone else was having the same problem. I went to
the CASIO website and there wasn't any information about it. Finally . . .
I got this weird idea in my head, that "What if I change the "USB" in the
Set-up menu to "PTP" (PictBridge), maybe it might work." I seriously tried
everything and I was crossing my fingers on this one. And honestly, from
what I was reading, it seemed that SD card readers weren't working either,
and I didn't want to have to fork out another $30-40 for one if I wasn't
sure it was going to work.
Anyways, I turned off my camera and turned it on after I had changed the
settings and IT WORKED!!!!!!! You can either copy them directly using
"Windows Explorer" to a different folder, or set it up to automatically
copy the pics/video files to somewhere else on your computer. If you're
using the "Photo Loader" Program (AWESOME that it automatically puts them
in HTML form after you've put the pics in the library), you have to load
the images through the program, which is really easy. (At least you can
get your pics off the camera, now.)
It's small and compact, which is great during a day of sightseeing and not
having to lug around a heavy camera. It sits perfectly in the palm of my
hand and I have long fingers. It has grippers to stablize what your
filming/taking pics of. I love all the options for "Best Shot." The 40x
zoom is great for a digital camera. The movie modes are great, too!! The
microphone works great. I didn't have to buy a new camera case, because it
fit perfectly in my old one. I love the way the LCD screen swivels, almost
like having a little camcorder in hand.
Overall, the camera is great for someone like me, who'd like to experiment
with "Aperture," "Shutter speeds" and manual focusing, as well just being
able to take some pictures and be able to share them with friends and
family easily.
My only real complaint is that the "Photo Loader" software only sends pics
one at a time through the program. (It's just easier to open a message and
attach them manually.)
I've also read that you can buy lens that attach, too. I'm not that
advanced, yet. LOL! Anyways, check out http://www.steves-digicams.com/2005_reviews/exp505.html
for a more in-depth descriptions along with examples. (One of the main
reasons I decided to get this camera was based on what I read there.)

I have an artistic eye, but I am not a camera buff (this is my first
digital camera.) I like it because it has a 5x optical zoom, yet the body
of the camera is very small. I want to carry it with me wherever I go.
This camera feels very good in the hand and I find it easy to hold steady.
