Casio Exilim EX-H10 Digital Camera - 10x Zoom In Your Pocket

Casio just announced a new compact superzoom addition to their line of compact Exilim digital cameras. The 12.1-megapixel Casio Exilim Hi-Zoom EX-H10 digital camera has an ultra-wide10x optical zoom lens (24-240mm - 35mm equivalent), a 3-inch LCD, and an estimated 1000 shots per battery charge - very impressive for a camera that will actually fit in your pocket!



It�s been a while since I used a Casio Exilim pocket camera. But I�ve always been impressed with their performance. Having that kind of performance in a pocket-sized camera with a 24-240mm zoom lens would make me very happy. The obvious comparison here is Panasonic�s Lumix ZS3 / TZ7, which has a 12x zoom lens in a pocket-sized body. At 4x2.5x0.96 inches, the Casio is 0.15 inches taller than the ZS3, but one-third of an inch thinner. At $299, the Casio EX-H10 is also $100 cheaper than the Panasonic. My point: the new Casio Exilim EX-H10 is a lot of pocket-sized camera for the money.

The new Exilim EX-H10 also has a 720p HD video mode, a new Landscape mode with �Vivid Landscape� and �Mist Removal� options, a Makeup mode that smoothes and adjusts for best skin tones, and a new Night Scene mode, which detects and analyzes low light scenes and automatically adjusts for best results. The new camera also includes Casio�s Dynamic Photo feature, which allows the photographer to combine multiple images into a moving, Motion JPEG (MPEG) right in the camera.

The Casio Exilim EX-H10 will be available in the middle of July with a suggested retail price (MSRP) of $299.99.
