What brand is so compact, slim and light? Casio is well-known to manufacture digital cameras that can fit so comfortably in the palm of your hand.
What carries a 10.1 Megapixel effective CCD imager, 3x optical zoom? The Casio EX-Z1000 does. Aside from a high resolution image, 360 shots can be achieved in one fully-charged Lithium Ion rechargeable battery.
This is good news since other models have only 171 shots and they have a lower Megapixel count too. Several enthusiasts prefer the Casio EX-Z1000 over other point and shoot digital camera brands due to that. In the previous years they have released 2.2 inch LCD displays but for this model, the display is 2.8 inches and a lot brighter and wider to view photos with ease.
The constant user complaint with other models is the difficulty to view photos on sunny and brightly lit places. The Casio EX-Z1000 offers a maximum brightness of 1200cd/m2.
