Manufacturer's Description
The CASIO EXILIM ZOOM EX-Z1050, is the latest exciting addition to CASIO's stylish series of EXILIM ZOOM digital cameras. The EX-Z1050 captures images of remarkably high quality for its very compact size, and its wide-format Super Bright LCD display gives users the power to enjoy instant, high-impact images of their shots.

The new EXILIM ZOOM EX-Z1050 packs a powerful punch in a sleek, compact package. Small enough to be held in the palm of the hand, this 10.1 megapixel digital camera still captures super high-resolution images that reproduce crystal-clear even in very large sizes - perfect for printing or on-screen viewing of those priceless, once-in-a-lifetime shots. This new model continues the trend of its predecessor by incorporating a large 2.6 inch, wide and bright LCD display. CASIO makes the most of this extra screen space to offer great functions like simultaneous viewing of a wide angle and a telephoto shot, and a convenient right side set of icon controls.

The EX-Z1050 has an effective 10.1 million pixels, powered by a large 1/1.75 inch format, high resolution CCD. Add the new EXILIM Engine 2.0 high-performance image processor, and the camera delivers highly expressive images and reproduces a wide tonal range.

The EX-Z1050's LCD display is a large, crystal clear 2.6 inch monitor in an attractive wide format. This LCD displays images and data with outstanding clarity and fine detail. The EX-Z1050's wide and bright display makes viewing in bright outdoor light easier than ever before.

Since the moment of its debut in 2002, the EXILIM series has been transforming the digital camera market. EXILIM cameras are slim and stylish, packed with superior functionality, and astonishingly easy to use. Users appreciate EXILIM's unique combination of compact size, intuitive controls, large displays, and long battery life. The latest models in the series continues to break new ground, with the recent introduction of functions like motion analysis technology, Anti Shake DSP, which reduces blurring due to unsteady hands or moving subjects, and the Super Bright display.

Brilliant Camera and Brilliant Value
This is an awsome camera. I recenlty bought the Samsung NV3 after having a Casio Exilim. I regretted it as soon as the Samsung arrived. I ordered this camera on Friday paid for express and had it at 1045am saturday. The camera it a little bulkier then normal Exilims but it is very small considering it has a 2.6" screen and incrediably light. First charge was done in around 1.5 hours.
I went straight out to test it. I'm no photographic wizard but the Casio range make it so easy. The Bestshot function is perfect for Novices but the range of shot choices is excellent, and grown since my last Casio.

The screen is brilliant, big and clear. Not the clearest I've had on a camera but very good. Insrumentation of controls is excellent, not fussy at all and very simple clear displays on the screen.

My tip to anyone is to remeber to always press the button down half way first to allow the lense to focus... then take the shot. I took some close ups of a friend and honestly the lighting, colouring and dimension looked very similar to pix i've taken with a digital SLR. I was totally amazed.

Yes the internal memory is small but I think anyone buying a digital camera wouldnt rely soley on that... an external card is always required.

This my 4th digital camera, I've had Sony, Samsung and now 2 Casio, i'd highly suggest Casio be your first choice.

For the price, I dont think you can get any better then this camera. The quality of the pix on the PC really amazed me.

Get yourself one now!

Brilliant alround Camera
This is a cracking camera. In fact it's so good that I bought it twice - well, the first one got pinched and I was so lost without it and had been so impressed by the performance that I went for the same one again. Incredible battery life, sharp, clear pictures and a compact size makes this camera a winner. The Best shot mode is great for us non techies but I think you can do individual set up if you want to be a bit more fancy. It is very compact, fits easily in a pocket or handbag (even a daft teeny weeny one). The battery life is amazing, I went for days and days travelling around India without having to recharge and the anti shake facility meant that even shots from moving vehicles come out sharp and clear. Reload is very fast so there is never an excuse to miss a shot - all in all a cracking little camera. My only recomendation is to buy a camera bag or pouch for it (or an old sock if you are nowhere near a shop) as the screen tends to get fine scratches on it fairly easily.

Great camera for the price
I searched and searched for cameras online and was told the more megapixels the better by friends. So i decided to get one 8 megapixels or above. The casio EX-Z1050 seemed a great price on amazon for a camera with 10.1 mp and looking at other review sites it always came out on top when compared with others at that price/quality. I had seen it on other websites for double the price too so at under £120 it was a bargain!
The camera arrived and after a quick battery charge i was ready to go. It is very easy to use and took no time to get the hang of the menu etc. The quality is fantastic and when i uploaded the images to my laptop i was very happy with them.
I wanted a camera for general use, nothing to arty farty just a good all round camera that took great pictures, looked stylish and didnt cost an arm and a leg....and thats what i got and im very pleased!
