Casio EXILIM EX-Z1050 Review

Review Summary
Reader Score: 7.92 (out of 10)
Review (Summary): "The Z1050 is a fairly straightforward snapshot camera, so the control layout is very simple and uncluttered. The zoom control is a rotating bezel around the shutter button, leaving plenty of room on the back for a thumb grip. The overall shape fits quite neatly into the hand, and although it would possibly benefit from some sort of grip on the front of the body it doesn't make that much difference.

The Casio Exilim EX-Z1050 demonstrates that it is possible to make a good 10MP compact camera without suffering problems with excessive image noise or fringing. As well as that it is a well-made camera offering good handling, brisk performance, some unique and useful features and excellent image quality, and at a sensible price point too."

Review (Summary): "At first glance, the Casio Exilim EX-Z1050 looks like every other digital camera and adds funky color choices; pink, blue, silver, and black. Look a little closer though, and you’ll see that it offers 10.1 megapixels – a spec that’s plastered on almost every surface of the camera. Besides that, the features are pretty basic: a 3x optical zoom lens and 38 Best Shot scene modes for a $269 price tag. ...

... The Casio Exilim EX-Z1050 follows up the older Z1000 with the same 10.1 megapixels and lackluster 3x optical zoom lens. The monstrous resolution is the headlining feature on the camera, but its features are otherwise quite tame. The Z1050 is still just another compact point-and-shoot that takes substandard pictures - it just takes them at an enormous size. Hooray, you can now print enormous posters of your blurry action shots and unnaturally lit portraits. ..."
