It's good but it could be better, March 3, 2006
Reviewer: Curious George
I bought this camera because, like a lot of people, I hate being burdened
by a camera when taking a trip/vacation/outing. And, for that purpose it
works great.
So far, this camera has been to Austin, San Antonio, New Orleans
(pre-flood), London, New York, Galveston, South Padre Island, San
Francisco, Dallas, Albuquerque, Santa Fe, Acapulco and on a cruise to
destinations like Jamaica and Grand Cayman. Let's face it, this things
been around! And through all of that, it has worked flawlessly giving me
image after image of wonderful photos, some which even grace my home as
photos and many of which are in photo albums.
I challenge those who say their pictures aren't clear or come out
terrible. With proper usage, the camera can take excellent pictures. But,
if you're looking for something to take wonderful nature photos of
beautiful vistas, this isn't the camera for you. This one is for quick
pictures, close up, not requiring excessive zoom. This is your "I just
spotted someone famous camera and need to take a quick picture".
So, why only 4 stars you ask? Only because it's digital zoom sucks and is
probably the single negative trait which is contributing to reviewers
claiming it takes bad pictures of poor quality.

Excellent, Tiny, Lightweight, Take-Everywhere Dig Cam..., January 16,
2005
Reviewer: TtP_
My overall rating of this tiny digital camera has been positive so far.
When buying a digital camera, I basically wanted to focus on shutter speed
since my last digital camera, Kodak LS 443's shutter speed was so slow
compared to Casio Exilim. I also wanted a lightweight digital camera. I
also had a budget in which I didn't want to spend tons of money on a
gadget in which will be replaced by a newer higher-tech gadget later on.
And wanted a user-friendly digital camera in which I didn't need to carry
their manual with me. Here were my reasons for buying this digital camera:
First of all, I bought this camera after my x-bf got his Exilim M2 which I
fell in love and had to get my own Casio Exilim. It is such a small
digital camera in which I take with me in purse and can snap a quick
picture anywhere and anytime.
Second of all, it has a HUGE LCD display which makes it easier to see what
your picture will look like when you are trying to center the picture.
Third of all, price of this digital camera was very reasonable compared to
other high-end digital camera, like Sony.
Fourt of all, it is such an user-friendly digital camera that I didn't
need to read the manual at all.
Lastly, I set my picture resolution to FINE in order to see the best
picture quality and I love the fast shutter-speed. Keep up the great work
@ Casio. I can't wait for S100 price to go down since that will be my next
gadget purchase. It's too bad that Casio is not being sold in a lot of the
bigger electronics store but more available online in which case, I bought
it from Amazon.com site. I bought this camera last 5/2004 and it still
takes excellent pictures. I take a lot of events pictures.

Great camera but not durable at all, August 20, 2004
Reviewer: Mr. K. Fusaris
Lovely camera, great photos while it lasts. Fits wonderfully in your
pocket. But that's exactly the problem--the camera seems to be extremely
heat or moisture sensitive. Though I was careful not to carry it with
anything else that might scratch it, small "blooms" or spots gradually
form on the LCD display and inside the lens, ruining both the viewfinder
and the pictures. Perhaps this is the reason they have discontinued this
model.
