Casio Exilim EX-Z280 review and ratings
The Casio Exilim EX-Z280 is a standard pocket sized digital camera. It has 12 megapixels and a 4x wide angle zoom lens. It sits in the middle of the pack when it comes to both price and features. You should find the Exilim EX-Z280 fairly straightforward and easy to use. Features include image stabilisation and a High Definition movie mode. The camera can capture movies up to 10 minutes in duration.
A couple of features you will not find on many other digital cameras are a Make Up mode and a Dynamic Photo mode. The make up mode softens skin and reduces the impact of shadows for portrait shots. The Dynamic Photo mode allows you to cut a subject from one image and superimpose it on another.
The Exilim EX-Z280 is up against some pretty stiff opposition. There are many pocket sized digital cameras on the market that offer a few extra features on top. One such camera is the
Sony Cybershot DSC WX1. This camera is well worth considering if you like the idea of a digital camera capable of shooting great panoramic shots and firing off very fast bursts of shots.
Rating: Average
Summary: Based purely on picture quality I feel the Casio Exilim EX-Z280 struggles when compared to other digital cameras with a similar specification and price tag. As with other digital cameras with such a high number of pixels crammed onto a small sensor and the introduction of an extra wide zoom lens I wonder if Casio have pushed the technology limits a little too far.
