PhotographyBlog offer their review of the Casio Exilim EX-Z60, an ultra compact 6 megapixel digital camera with a 3x optical zoom and a 2.5 inch LCD display.
The reviewer’s opinion:
“In short, I thoroughly enjoyed using the EX-Z60, but didn’t like the images that it produced, except those taken in near-perfect lighting conditions. The Casio Exilim EX-Z60 may impress you with its good looks, but I doubt if the photos that it takes will do the same. Although the low price makes the EX-Z60 good value, I would still look elsewhere.”

Think Camera have reviewed the Casio Exilim EX-Z600 digital camera. Despite its small size, the Casio Z600 features 6 megapixels resolution, a 3x optical zoom and a large 2.7 inch screen.
The review verdict:
“This is a very good camera indeed. Don’t confuse the Z600 with the S600 which is even tinier but doesn’t take nearly such good pictures. Battery life is great at 4 - 500 shots and this camera would be on my shortlist if I was shopping for a compact digicam.”

Digital Trends has recently published a review of the Casio Exilim EX-Z1000, a small 10.1 megapixel camera equipped with a large 2.8 inch screen and electronic image stabilization.
The review impression:
“I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of this new 10MP point-and-shoot digicam. I really didn’t like the Casio EX-S500 but this digicam is definitely a shooter of a different color. The EX-Z1000 has a nice feel, superb onscreen menus, is simple to use and it takes good—not great—photos. I recommend it, especially if you can get it for around $350.”

A review of the Casio Exilim EX-Z600 camera is available at photographyreview. The Casio Exilim EX-Z600 is an ultra compact digital camera with 6 megapixels effective resolution, a 3x optical zoom and a very large 2.7 inch LCD display.
The review impression:
“It is, overall, one of the better point-and-shoots I have used -. The nice thing about the EX-Z600 is that you can count on it to simply and quickly produce a quality image. It’s pretty “idiot proof.” There are plenty of custom features included, if they are a bit hard to find. It’s definitely a better point-and-shoot and easily compares with Canon’s SD600 and the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX01K.
As long as you are not expecting a professional camera hidden in a point-and-shoot package, then you’ll be happy with this camera.”

The Casio Exilim EX-Z1000 digital camera has been reviewed at PhotographyBlog. The Casio EX-Z1000 is an ultra compact camera that, despite its small size, is equipped with a high optical resolution of 10.1 megapixels and a large and bright 2.8 inch LCD display.
The reviewer’s opinion:
“The Casio Exilim EX-Z1000 is a frustrating camera. It is one of the best-built, well thought-out, feature-rich and quick compact digital cameras that I’ve ever reviewed. On the other hand, the 10 megapixel sensor is a liability, producing images that look good at first glance, but which upon closer inspection suffer from noise at ISO 200 and faster, purple fringing in many shots, including situations where you wouldn’t expect to find it, and almost completely ineffective anti-shake and high-sensitivity modes. In short, I thoroughly enjoyed using the EX-Z1000, but didn’t like the images that it produced, which is possibly the worst kind of disappointment.”

Ephotozine have published a review of the Casio Exilim EX-Z1000 digital camera. Despite its small size, the EX Z1000 features a high optical resolution of 10.1 megapixels and a large and bright 2.8 inch LCD display. The Casio Z1000 is also equipped with electronic anti shake technology which reduces the effects of hand movement a common cause for blurred photos.
The review impression:
“Ergonomically, the EX-Z1000 is a great camera. The controls are well laid-out plus the camera is quick and responsive.
Unfortunately I am less impressed with the images produced by this camera, especially as the 10 megapixel resolution is one of the major selling points of this camera. Noise at high sensitivities and sharpening artefacts detract from what should be a fantastic camera on paper.”
