I was looking for a cheap small camera as my old Sony cybershot was stolen before a trip abroad, so I opted for the Casio Exilim Zoom EX-Z70. The camera surpassed all expectation and I was so impressed it has been my main camera for few years now.

The camera is a dense, compact camera that feels very good quality for the price paid. The buttons and switches all feel solidly made and very easy and clear to use. The size of the camera means it fits snugly into a trouser pocket so its brilliantly portable, making it the ideal choice for holidays.

The camera software is sometimes hard to decipher but its basic graphical display means you can always work it out. That is however the only slight concern about an otherwise easy to use camera. I would highly recommend this camera for anyone looking for a cost effective, stylish yet practical digital camera.
