 Casio Exilim Z60 review : At the beginning of this year, just before the start of the PMA 2006, Casio introduced a series of new Exilim digital cameras, including the ultra compact Casio Exilim EX Z60 camera. This 'credit card' sized camera has extremely compact measurements, and the breadth of just 19.8mm (the thinnest point is even 16.2mm) will totally amaze many consumers. The Casio Exilim Z60 has a resolution of 6 Megapixels and a 3x optical zoom. The resolution is slightly better than that of its predecessor, the Casio Z50 and six Megapixels is the applicable norm nowadays. The recently introduced 10 Megapixel Casio Exilim EX Z1000 compact camera is proof that Casio has no intention of dropping out of this Megapixel race.

 Casio EX Z60 - Compact format
The Casio Exilim EX Z60 compact camera has been available on the market for several months and was noticed immediately thanks to its predecessors. The Casio Exilim Z60 is a little camera that is particularly suited to photographers who want to capture a favourite moment quickly and easily. A camera like this should be no trouble to take along so that you can always have it on you. The Exilim Z60 is one of Casio's prize products and is intended to capture a greater share of the market. At the moment, Casio is very active in Germany where its 15% market share puts it at the top, but looking at its share of the US market, (3%) you will see that there is a lot of custom to be won.
Casio Exilim EX Z60 - Camera functions
In addition to its compact and stylish design, a noteworthy Casio Exilim EX-Z60 function includes Revive Shot, which refreshes faded colours of old photos by bringing them back to life in digital format, automatically adjusts for obliquity even when photos are shot while still in the album. The Rapid Flash function enables three consecutive, high-speed flash photos in only one second, ensuring that no special moments are missed. The Easy Mode setting provides a simplified, easy to understand, and convenient version of the settings menu and camera interface, designed for first time users but also helpful to those who prefer a basic camera settings interface as well.
Casio Exilim EX-Z60 - Best Shot button
The Casio EX Z60 camera features a Best Shot button, which enables convenient, one-touch access to 33 scenarios chosen from an image menu and providing the user with a wide range of camera settings for taking hassle-free photos every time. The Casio Exilim EX-Z60 is a stylish and easy to use digital compact camera that takes high quality images and comes loaded with the latest features and functions.
Casio Exilim Z60 review
The Casio EX Z60 leads the ultra-compact Exilim Z series of cameras. With its 6 Megapixels and 3x optical zoom, it doesn't stand out immediately in this fiercely competitive market. In any case, the Casio Z60 has a strikingly compact design and must rely on its extensive inbuilt automatic software which gains it top marks for user friendliness and convenience. We tested the Casio Exilim Z60 thoroughly, you can read our findings in the following Casio Exilim Z60 review.
