BenQ aim their shooters pretty high. And oh boy! Is this one reaching the stars? (For me, at least). Let’s see why. First of all, a 3x optical zoom with static and video recording modes seems pretty interesting. Then we have the very gorgeous 2.5″ LCD display that stares back at you innocently shielding the cool Super Shake Free system which comes to the aid of elderly folks and those with shaky hands capture blur-free photos and videos. If you are among the more jazzy kinds then you can have your pick from black, red, pearl, and silver. As a blessing in disguise, we also have 29 scene modes for the juveniles. You can also exploit the excellent SD memory card slot and 12MB of internal memory.

The 12.5mm thin BenQ X725 Digital Camera is a worldwide commodity now. It’s up for grabs, literally.
