I say – mind-blowing! Trust BenQ to turn in a masterstroke, despite all the adversity in recent times. Apparently unruffled by the name change, CEO tomfoolery and scrapping of its Digital camera division, BenQ has pulled out an ace from nowhere.
The 7 MP C740i and the 8 MP E820 are two heavily-loaded cameras. What they lack in looks, they make up with features. 3x optical zoom, Pentax lenses, a 2.5-inch LTPS screen, SD card support, continuous movie mode, face tracking, and red eye reduction – they have it all. However, these are not identical twins and they are quite distinctive in certain aspects like the PASM, which gives you control over shutter and aperture settings, featuring only in the C740i. This camera also has a high ISO of up to 1600.
The C820 is not to be left far behind. You can use this device to shoot in 16:9 or 3:2 modes. It has an ISO of up to 1200, a shade lower than the C740i. Another notable feature is the PictBridge for direct printing. The Jedi Knight has returned!!
