      Casio Exilim EX-Z80: Exilim EX-Z80

      By Kathleen Cullen

      Review summary: The tiny Casio Exilim EX-Z80 packs a lot of features for $180, going above and beyond much of its competition. About the length and width of a credit card and just 0.5 inch thick, this camera fits into a pocket with the ease of a flip phone. Encased ...

      Pros: Lots of neat, fun settings Huge LCD

      Cons: Tiny buttons aren't easy to press No zoom while shooting video

      Verdict: Alas, like most cameras in the sub-$200 range, this Exilim doesn't have crystal-clear optics. Though color was very good and easy to alter with the camera's white balance and filter settings, photos lost sharpness at their outer edges, artifacts ...

      Casio Exilim EX-Z80

      By Tony Hoffman

      Review summary: As soon as I saw the prominent "YouTube Capture Mode" sticker on the front of the Casio Exilim EX-Z80 ($180 street), I knew this tiny 8.1-megapixel camera was meant for fun. I looked forward to taking it through its paces (as well as making my YouTube ...

      Pros: Compact, handsome design. Comfortable feel. Good macro shots. Smorgasbord of scene modes.

      Cons: Mediocre pictures and video. Abysmal resolution. Blue-green fringing. Underexposed flash shots. Noise at relatively low ISO. Atypical USB jack/cable.

      Verdict: The Casio Exilim EX-Z80 is a tiny point-and-shooter with great looks and a riot of scene modes, but it shoots mediocre video and problematic photos.

      Casio Exilim EX-Z80

      Review summary: The Casio Exilim EX-Z80 is one of the cheapest pocket sized digital cameras around. It is also one of the smallest and most lightweight. Taking its price into account it takes a decent photo without being stunning. The Exilim EX-Z80 has 8 megapixels ...

      Pros: Size - widescreen movies - price

      Cons: Colours could be toned down a shade or two

      Verdict: Small, lightweight and relatively inexpensive. It would be too much to ask for the Exilim EX-Z80 to offer top drawer photo quality, but the camera can take a decent snapshot in most situations. It also scores well for ease of use.

      Casio EXILIM ZOOM EX-Z80PK - digital camera: Casio Exilim EX-Z80 Review

      By J. Keenan

      Review summary: The 8.1 megapixel Casio Exilim EX-Z80 is the latest slim camera from Casio to offer a mostly conventional feature set in a handsome package at a great price.

      Pros: Image, color and build quality on a par with competition ; Good range of image adjustments for an auto camera

      Cons: Monitor dot composition about half of most competitors ; Stabilization via ISO boost

      Verdict: Turns out Casio is "one of the leading consumer electronics companies in the world," established in 1957. That's barely two years before Nikon introduced their now-iconic 35mm "F" SLR, and if I read Casio's history correctly, it would be another 45 ...
