Casio Exilim EX-Z1080 Compact Camera
Small size, quick operation, and long battery life make this a great compact camera. Comes in pink, blue, black, and silver.
The first thing you notice on the $280, 10.1-megapixel EX-Z1080 we tested is its metallic-pink shell and a big sticker touting its YouTube-capture mode--suggesting the camera's target buyer is young and female. If you don't fit that demographic, the camera also comes in blue, black, and silver. Also notable is its 2.6-inch LCD, which fits within a 3.5-inch-wide body. But looks are deceiving. A narrow column on the wide-format screen's left side holds the camera's settings menu, so the viewing area during shooting is more like 2.25 inches. That said, I found the viewfinder exceptionally clear and sharp, even in bright sunlight, making it a pleasure to use. That's important, because the pocket-sized Z1080 does not include an optical viewfinder.
