This is my second Casio EX-Z1000. It has been a great "pocket camera" for carrying with me for spontaneous photo opportunities. I lost my first camera during a trip and insisted on obtaining an identical Casio. I have taken in excess of 10,000 photos with my camera and have purchased an after-market underwater camera housing for capturing images of all types of sea life. I know Casio has newer camera models on the market, and I am sure they have the same, easy use characteristics as the EX-1000.
This Christmas brought much joy to our home. One of my favorite new gifts was a brand new digital camera, (Canon Power-shot SX200 IS which I will write a separate review on) which is replacing my much loved Casio Exlim EX-Z1000 which I have owned for almost two years. Of course this is leading to a rave review of the EX-Z1000 but please note that I am only replacing it for a newer unit with better ISO and Macro Features. The Exlim is still a Rock Star in my book. So loved that I will keep it as a back up. The Exlim has been with me all over the world, Disneyland, the Philippines and numerous US states. It has preformed brilliantly with hundreds of eBay listings and thousands of family photos. It is not fair to advertise its toughness, as all digital cameras are fragile by there nature, but this thing has had some falls including a free fall on a concrete garage floor. I have never had any issues at all, not even with the battery after all this time. Just a great machine for such a small camera. Although the EX-Z1000 only has up to ISO 400 settings, lighting can be tricky, especially with close up macro shots at night. No fault of the camera as all digital cameras are thirsty for light. I did invest in various light sources for eBay listings but found it somewhat hard to get good light balance without the flash and of course the flash would kill a close up. Again, cant blame the camera and one would find it hard to find a better unit in the price range. My bottom line? Thinking about buying one? Go for it. Chances are you will be as happy as I was/am. I see them going for far less than most 10m MP cameras coming out on the market and I have been Super Happy with mine. It is one of those electronic items that just always works...

Had this for about 9 years great camera. Tried to be a good friend and loaned it out. They claim they retuned it. But I would know where my camera was. He returned the charger a month later the case. And never the camera. So today 3 months later I purchase 2. 1 to loan. And one no to be touched. How ever this is the first time I had ever loaned it. And this freind was lost. It's sad that they valued a camera more then they value me. Hope they enjoy is as I have. It won't replace me as I replace it.

I had this same camera from years ago and loved it! It has video and other preloaded software right on the camera. It's 10 MP, lightweight and uses a SD card. So happy I found it on Ebay and a great price. Great job Casio!!
