Grow with Dr Prem

Over at Casio they like to do things a bit differently, as evidenced by the EX-TR100, otherwise known as the TRYX – a super-slim compact camera with a unique frame design that can be twisted and bent to accommodate all kinds of shooting angles. With its articulated screen and foldable hollowed-out handle it’s even possible to hang the TRYX from hooks, or to use the frame itself as a makeshift support when composing self or group portraits.

This is sure to appeal to its target audience of bright young things looking for a camera they can keep close to hand to photograph themselves and their friends with.
