Casio Exilim EX-277 Casio, Inc. has announced the release of two new EXILIM cameras, the EX-S880 and the EX-Z77, that include a unique YouTube Capture mode and bundled software to provide ideal settings for recording, storing and uploading YouTube videos.

This mode also provides sharp resolution (640×480) and a frame rate of up to 30 frames per second. Casio has also included an exclusive software application that makes it seamless to upload single or multiple movies to YouTube in as few as two steps.
