Why I like my Casio ex-z100

Bought one of these in Jan 09 on e-bay VERY cheap and a friend was so impressed he bought it from me ( at a good mark up ) I saw another and bought it to keep in the car for catching once only shots I own and use mainly a finepix 10mp fd20 and cannot really see much difference in picture quality, As these are a fairly old model they had the first ceramic lens and possibly that why quality is excellent Very small for shirt pocket or handbag - but as with all cameras with a protuding lens - DO NOT DROP IT Would recommend to anyone -

If you are looking for a cheap and usable digi this one will fit the bill. The camera is dated 3mp -slow - cheap plastic casing - small 1.5in screen and if you pay £15 ( 2008 ) you will regret it ( i paid more and DID regret ) I bought it as a pressie for a grandchild and - yes she was happy with it BUT she was 4 yrs old These are in my view a cheap backup for holidays if you are afraid of loosing / breaking a decent one but Having said that I got reasonable pics and it has an expandable memory via SD card - battery life is SHORT so use re-chargeable -- if its £15 ok BUT you wont sell it for more

Excellant Camera

Bought this as a backup camera ( to keep in car ) and it produces excellent pictures-- anti-shake is really top class as my grand daughter ( 4yr ) regularly uses it .One of the reasons I bought this type is that the lens doesent protude and so cannot be damaged ( major problem with a lot of protuding lenses ) this model actually has a sliding cover to protect lens and switch on camera --- only bug bear is that I would have liked a button to quickly change from snapshot to video rather than go thru the menu BUT this is not really a problem when you get used to all the functions bought on e-bay for £50 so really happy
