The Z750 offers a wide shutter speed range of 60 - 1/6000 sec and MPEG-4 movie capture, which has a Past Movie function enabling video recording to begin from five seconds before the shutter is pressed. The Z57 does away with a viewfinder altogether as it's replaced by that large LCD, and a proprietary Super Life battery is said to give 400 shots per charge. Both cameras come with an AC adapter cradle for recharging batteries and viewing stills and movie footage on a television via AV out. The Exilim EX-Z750 and Exilim EX-Z57 will be available in April."</i><br /><br /> <img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/EXILIM EX-Z57.JPG" /> <br /><img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/Exilim EX-Z750.JPG" /> <br /><br />Definitely some big features in a small package. The 2.7" screen just looks outstanding. Forget just taking movies and pictures on it, you could watch movies on it. Too bad they don't put the bigger screen on the higher mega-pixel camera.

Let's see, EX-Z750 has 2,5" screen and ability to shoot and view 640x480px mpeg4 video and it accepts SD cards. Very nice package indeed :)

Does anyone know if there is any way to connect headphones to the AV out of the camera? I mean, this beauty would great solution for carrying a spare 128mb SD card with video clips for viewing when travelling.

Here's hoping the VGA movie mode would be anywhere as sharp as the one in Finepix F710.
