4.0 out of 5 stars Great point and shoot camera for casual pictures, May 22, 2008

If you want a handy point and shoot camera that takes decent pictures, this one is great.

Size:
I have no complaints about the size. Most cameras can't fit into my small pockets (face it, girl pockets are TINY!), but this one slips in great. I esp. like carrying it in my back pocket so I can whip it out easily when I need to, and since it's so slim, it doesn't look bulgy back there. Another plus, and this is purely vain, the slim size creates a lot of product envy in other people. So if you like people fawning over how cool your camera looks, this is good for that. =)

Picture quality:
For casual picture takers, this should be sufficient. If you are particularly picky about picture quality though, I'd recommend something else. I've seen several Canon Powershots with lower MP that took better pictures than this one.

Functionality:
I'd say it's very simple and intuitive to use. The interface is very clean and the Best Shot features make it a lot easier to take better pictures.

Overall:
I like this camera a lot. I've used two older Exilim models in the past, this one makes three, and I've liked all of them. The size really can't be beat, it takes unlimited movies (well, unless you run out of memory), and it's very fast. Again, if you want super nice picture quality though, go with something else. It really depends on what your priorities are.

Caveat:
This camera is great for taking pictures of other people, but not for taking pictures of yourself. When you use the Best Shot function for self portraits, it has this really odd time delay, so you don't know when the shot will be taken. If you can get over that (or just don't use that function at all), then you should be fine.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect picture quality, April 11, 2008

As for the picture quality it's just perfect and very easy to use. The camera turns on very fast. I'll update my review if i find any flaws.
I just returned Olympus FE-340 - well designed a camera too, a bit larger though, AND yields picture indeed of poor quality (very pale, morbidly pale) compared to this Casio camera. I'm happy for now.

Photogrphy is my hobby and I cant be lugging a professional camera everywhere so having this little camera in my pocket has really help and It takes wonderful pictures. There is also a setting that I love that takes multiple pictures in a matter of seconds press and hold and comes out like a steller slide show. Overall this product is awsome and charging is soo easy I dont know what other people are talking about.
