ePhotozine“I think this camera could make someone very happy as long as they aren’t interested in night time shots and don’t mind the noise of the motor. It could be good as a first compact or for a younger family member getting to grips with a camera.”

“Sharp photos are a big thing for me. Taking this into account I thought the Casio Exilim EX-Z100 struggled in too many of my tests. That’s a shame as it has some decent features for a pocket sized, point and shoot camera and it also did well in my shutter lag tests.”

TrustedReviews has reviewed the Casio EX-Z100 and they write -
“The Casio Exilim EX-Z100 is a good example of a modern mid-range pocket compact. It is well made and sensibly designed, reasonably well priced, has some useful features and produces very good images under most normal conditions.”

CNET.co.uk has reviewed the Casio EX-Z100 and they write -
“The Exilim EX-Z100 is another success for Casio. Its understated style complements accessible controls and a large screen, while an above-average lens and useful features take care of the business end. Those looking for more manual control might prefer the Samsung L830, while those seeking better low-light performance could go for the Fujifilm FinePix F50fd. But really, we just can’t fault Casio these days.”

“Casio was not surprised to receive a call advising that the wrong cable was shipped with this camera! Don’t expect to be able to upload photos until weeks after you request a replacement. They also demand that the wrong cable be shipped back to them.”

EXILIM Zoom EX-Z200 and EX-Z100 — two 10.1 megapixel digital cameras with a wide 28 mm lens and 4x optical zoom
The high resolution, 10.1 megapixel EXILIM Zoom EX-Z200 and EXILIM Zoom EX-Z100 models feature an EXILIM series first — a 4x optical zoom lens that can shoot as wide as 28 mm (equivalent). Also, in addition to the usual recognition technologies, the intelligence of these cameras has been enhanced. They incorporate automatic scene differentiation and allow the shutter to be released automatically, thanks to Casio’s commitment to keep improving the convenience offered by digital cameras.
Wide-angle 28 mm lens with 4x optical zoom These cameras allow zoom photography between 28 mm and 112 mm (35 mm film camera equivalent). This increases photographic enjoyment, from wide angle photography suitable for capturing large subjects or shooting up close in small spaces, right through to telephoto work.
10.1 million effective pixels for high resolution photographs The new thinner, smaller bodies of these two models were made possible without sacrificing high resolution image quality using a newly developed 1/2.3 inch CCD. Their high resolution images can be used to create beautiful prints even when enlarged or when the image is cropped.
CCD shift anti shake function in the EX-Z200 The EX-Z200 employs an anti shake function that compensates for blur by moving the imaging element. Of course, both models incorporate Anti Shake DSP, which reduces blur by raising the camera’s sensitivity and therefore increasing shutter speeds.
2.7-inch wide and bright LCD offers high contrast These cameras incorporate Casio’s newly developed Super Clear LCD. This produces extremely sharp and vivid images, thanks to its high contrast ratio and its 230,160 dot high resolution. The display can be viewed easily from above, below, left or right thanks to its wide viewing angle, and it is extremely bright, making it easy to see even in daylight.
Auto Shutter function automatically records the moment of a smile or the instant when hand shake ceases Using motion blur detection technology, the camera can automatically take a photo at the instant when hand shake or subject movement ceases. Users can also automatically capture the moment of a smile, the instant when subject movement due to panning ceases, or the moment when their own face fills the frame as they point the camera towards themselves.
AUTO BEST SHOT analyzes scenes to determine an appropriate shooting mode These cameras can automatically analyze the scene to be captured and choose an appropriate shooting mode. The six scenes that can be distinguished are: people, scenery, night scenes, night scenes with people, close-ups, and moving subjects. These cameras were also designed to be very user-friendly, and it is easy to quickly change to another shooting mode associated with the scene type that the camera recognizes.
H.264 video, which can be enjoyed in wide format These cameras utilize the H.264 video standard, which lets users record beautiful movies with the latest high compression technology. Users can enjoy wide format movies in a 16:9 aspect ratio. These cameras also feature a Movie Button for easy movie recording.
