 Casio Exilim EX-Z1000 camera review : Although Casio have been part of the digital camera market for years, their market share simply isn't large enough to spark a direct link between the brand name Casio and a digital camera. Consequently, the fact that Casio were the first to introduce a digital consumer camera in 1995; the Casio QV10, which earned them the highest market share ever for a digital camera manufacturer, will come as a surprise to many consumers. It didn't take long, however, for the other photo manufacturers to spring into action, and we soon saw the first models from Canon, Nikon and other well-known manufacturers take their first steps into the market. This signalled the end of Casio's predominant market share.

Casio Exilim Z1000 - Megapixel race
The introduction of the Casio Exilim EX Z1000 digital camera makes it clear that Casio want -and are able- to meet the requirements of both the top and the bottom layer of the Megapixel market. In fact, they clearly take a stand, and decidedly turn their back on the alleged stop of the Megapixel race that the leading camera manufacturers seem to have declared. According to Casio, the interest for 7 - 8 Megapixels and higher is a strongly increasing market, and it is therefore simply a must to meet this demand.
