Z850 and the included software

[Rick Ramza]

Does Casio include any good software with their Z850 camera which allows for some good post processing? What would be the must have software for post processing?

Thank You

Rick

It's junk. Noiseware is a great free and super easy to use program for cleaning up noise. For general tweaking photoshop, tho of course thats pricy. there's one called gimp that some say is very good. Look for freeware on google and you'll find a ton of free stuff many which will be very good. Sometimes it's best to just download all the freebees you can find and try them all because opinions often don't translate to your personal needs/likes. But i say definatly give noisware a try because i tried a few of the noise programs often touted here and that one was by far the easiest to use and gave me much better results than the others, and the price certainly is right !

Casio software isn't much. Here is a very good program and it is free.

Thanks for the advice. Would you recommend the Transend 2GB or ScanDisk memory card? Do you like your Z850?

I'm not a Picasa fan because any edits you do are NOT saved back into your jpeg file. They are saved in Picasa's database. Google is positioning Picasa to lock you into their proprietary program. Yes, you can go through an export procedure to save your edits to file, but what a pita.

A lot of people do fine with Irfanview. It's free.
