Casio Exilim EX-Z60 Digital Camera - Black

Sleek, Sophisticated, Yet User Friendly

Strengths: Could not be any sleeker, smaller, thinner; extremely lightweight; lithium battery over AAs; excellent battery life; huge, crisp, clear LCD; shutter speed; start-up time

Weakness: No viewfinder; hard to get a good 'grip' because of its teeny tiny size; vague, unhelpful user's manual; small buttons

I'm a novice photo taker, so I can't go on and on about this camera's picture quality versus Canons, Sonys, etc. I've only ever owned one other digi-cam and suffice it to say this is a drastic improvement. I can say, however, that for the average person looking for a mid-priced ultra-compact camera, this is a great choice. So far I've taken some extremely up-close shots of various things and...

Nice Camera for the Price

Strengths: Small size, Large LCD Screen, Good Quality Photos

Weakness: Button Placement, Baterry Charger Design, Limited Internal Memory

I recently bought this camera for a shade under $200. I am extremely happy with it for the most part, and think that the photo quality is excellent. I love the small size, and the huge LCD screen (2.5"). The three weaknesses I have found are: 1. Button Placement -- You will definitely want a case to keep this camera in because if you put it in your pocket, you will accidentally press the button...

One of the best

Strengths: Shape, size, weight, menus, video quality, price, response time.

Weakness: Some of the controls.

I have been using this camera for a while now and I have to say that I'm really happy with it overall. The size of the machine is ideal, as is its weight. One of the big strenghts of the machine is its menu. It lets you personalize almost every control. You can assign interesting sounds to actions. It also has about 30 preset modes in order to get the best out of the environment. You can also...

Great Camera!

Strengths: Small profile, good picture quality, some compensation to moving object photography

Weakness: No manual control

This camera is great. I've had it for a while and now buying another one as a gift. It's great if you're taking pictures on the go. I just whip it out of my pocket and shoot. The boot up time is very quick.

Strengths: Large LCD, Size, and light weight. Great carry anywhere camera.

Weakness: No optical viewfinder, no manual controls, as stated in other reviews, get a case, turns on by accident if in a pocket. Get a big enough case so that if it accidentally comes on it can open un-impeded

One unstated feature is that the camera will set ISO800 in the sensitive mode. Images sometimes a bit soft from focus locking on something in background. If you learn what all the modes do, you can pretty much get the camera set like you want, even though no manual controls. There are something like 33 modes.

it is really a fine camera

Strengths: its size and shape and wide lcd screen are really good and useful for one looking for a decent camera. it is easy to use and store the pics.

Weakness: its battery life is not as good as it is supposed to be.

I liked that small camera. it is what i need so far. i hope it has a good battery life. i will try to get another battery as a spare one. i recommend to use that camera to all who looks for a normal camera but efficient one.

Compact Camera, Great Price, Nice Features, and more.

Strengths: Compact size, great design, not cluttered with alot of buttons, a lot of manual controls.

Weakness: Buttons could be a bitter bigger. Menus could be easier to navigate. Instruction manual needs a lot more detail.

This camera is so sleek, small and stylish. It has allot of manual controls to select from. But if you don't like to set everything up individually, there is a 'Best Shot' function where you can just select what type of picture you are taking. Say for example a party or a pet or a scenic. That makes it simplified. The video recording could use a bit of improvement but you can fill up whatever...

Love/hate with this camera

Strengths: 1)Tiny, pocketable size 2)Solid metal body 3)Tons of image settings including a unique setting that resizes photos for Ebay sales or to be used on Ebay 4)Excellent battery life

Weakness: Terrible LCD screen, Terrible resolution on LCD screen - images appear grainy/lots of pixelation/over-saturation of colors - extremely annoying and throws you "off".

weaknesses go on:Images produced and printed are "soft" in all settings, lack detail Pictures indoors are terrible with/without flash. They tend to be grainy, overly saturated inaccurate colors (especially reds). This camera's images fall apart in anything other than bright light/sun. I wanted to really like this camera but the soft images, poor pics indoors and terrible LCD made me can't

Lightweight camera with nice features, clean...

Strengths: Very light-weight camera, lots of shooting modes, SD Card support, Casio Dock compatible.

Weakness: Switching shooting modes takes time. Dock is not supplied, and is not available online for purchase.

I have owned Canon and Sony cameras for some time. I decided go give Casio a try after reading reviews about its light-weight feature-loaded properties. I could not get the camera in most local B&M stores, as they were cleared for bigger mega-pixel cameras from Casio. I found one online, and have not regretted the decision to buy it. I was really surprised by the weight of the camera. The...

Exlim - First look

Strengths: Solid build Compact, reasonably fast, great price for a lot of camera.

Weakness: No optical view finder, buttons/control could be bigger and better No memory card included. Optical zoom seems a bit sluggish. Slight barrel effect.

It has a good feel to it, everything seems to be build to last. Has everything that you'd expect from a compact camera. If you try to take pictures like a professional, move on, all is automatic. If you are looking for a great point and shoot camera, that takes good pictures, fits in your breast pocket and does not have the "cheap plastic" feel to it, look no further.
