+ Excellent picture quality for the price the camera was at time of purchase. All the others in the same price range had only 6 mega pixels. There is a huge collection of different shooting moods so it'll help you get the best picture for the lighting conditions you are shooting in.

- Despite there being a large number of shooting moods, it doesn't have one for outside on a bright sunny day, for example on the beach or skiing on bright snow. The screen is raised from the back of the camera so it could get easily scratched. You just need to buy a good case!

+ Fantastic, we took it on our safari honeymoon and we could get really good close ups. We are not anything close to professional photographers, but lots of our photos looks as good as postcards! I have owned two Casio cameras previously and have always found them to be easy to use with great quality photos. This new model did not let me down.

+ This is a good camera and easy to use once you know how, I got my camera for a very good price so I have no complaints.

- The zoom isn't that brillant when you are zooming far away. I was very disappointed to find that the camera didn't come with any instructions, I find this really hard to believe that I brought something and there are no instructions. This means I still don't know exactly how to use this camera.

+ My previous camera was an exilim digital which I have had for exactly 3 years but was only 2.1 m pixels. This model is absolutely brilliant and I would thoroughly recommend it to anybody. Casio Exilims are extremely solid, not like some of the contemporary big boys which are plastic to the touch and the silver wears off after a while. Technical excellence from Exilim as ever!

- Could be slimmer like my old one but if it was necessary to fit in the updated technology then whats a few millimetres.

+ I found the best shot feature very good to use. The best shot feature lets you choose pre-set modes for photographs (such as landscape, portrait etc.). When using this modes, the camera focuses very well and pictures comes out very clear. The soft flash mode is also very useful since it prevents the harsh glare when using the full flash and lets you shoot in relatively low light conditions. The battery lasts quite long and one can easily take lots of photos without the need of a recharge. The camera switches on very quickly and after a photo clears its buffer memory very quickly allowing for many photos to be taken quickly. Video mode is also quite good in Size - 640x480) The ability to set ISO settings manually is also a plus.

- No manual viewfinder - this means that when you are running low on batteries, you cannot switch off the LCD and take a photo. The LCD is the only to take a photo. The pictures taken at very high ISO settings (800/1600) are slightly grainy. Videos limited to 10 minutes a video (independent of available memory). You can stop and rerecord another one but this is cumbersome.
