Casio Exilim EX-S880 Compact Camera Review

by Paul Jasper

- The slim and attractive Casio Exilim EX-S880 adds a few twists to what you'd expect to find in a 3X-zoom, 8-megapixel point-and-shoot digital camera. The bright and sharp 2.8-inch LCD screen has an unusual 14:9 aspect ratio; when shooting at the default 4:3 ratio, you see the current settings in a column to the right of the live preview. For 16:9 stills or video, you see black bars above and below the preview, or you can switch to a layout that superimposes the settings over a larger preview, similar to how most cameras display them. The maximum video resolution is 848 by 480 pixels--short of HDTV quality, but a higher resolution than most cameras can manage.
