| Review (Summary): "The Z80 may well be the smallest digital camera I've ever seen, apart from a few novelty VGA "spy cameras" that don't really count. It measures just 89.7 x 51.7 x 19mm and weighs only 100g. The box it comes in is also about half the size of most other cameras, and less packaging means less waste. While many ultra-compact cameras can slip into a shirt pocket, the Z80 is so inconspicuous you have to check twice to make sure it's still there. Despite its minuscule dimensions the Z80 handles surprisingly well. ...
... The only slight disappointment from this otherwise excellent camera is the final image quality. It's not totally awful, but given the camera's excellent design and performance I had hoped it might be better, and as usual with Casio it's the lens that bears most of the blame. It produces distinct barrel distortion at the wide end, and equally bad pincushion distortion at the telephoto end. ..." |

| Review (Summary): "The EX-Z80 features an 8.1 megapixel sensor and Casio's Exilim Engine 2.0, which "delivers sharper photos and higher-quality videos using less energy than ever before-and at faster speeds, thanks to an improved signal processor." There's a 2.6-inch monitor, face and smile detection technologies, an interesting auto shutter feature, a 3x optical zoom lens, a little over 12 MB of internal memory, and an ISO sensitivity range of 64 to 1600. ...
... Images from the EX-Z80 were generally pleasant and accurate with regard to color fidelity and sharpness. However, I was surprised to find the camera offers users a fairly comprehensive set of advanced settings, including sharpness, contrast, saturation, and dynamic range that one would ordinarily not expect to find in what is essentially an entry-level digital. ..." |
