I purchased this camera at Christmas 2006, it cost me £150. This is an excellent camera with 6.0 mega pixels. The picture quality is amazing although when you transfer the image from your camera to your computer the images are quite big in size, although the bigger the size the better quality it should be.
Casio
Casio is a well known brand, Casio has made many cameras although I think that this one has topped them all. There are many different makes of camera which claim to be good quality and good zooms etc, but unlike many other cameras this one does give maximum performance and great picture quality.
CostThis camera only cost me £150 at Christmas 2006. Before this camera was £230 and now it is probably even cheaper now. What ever you pay for this camera make sure you don’t pay more than I did as I paid for mine awhile back as it should be much cheaper now.
Zoom
The zoom of this camera is very good, you can zoom in and take a photo, after you have taken the photo you can press one button to view the photo and then you can zoom on that photo after it has been taken.
Colour
The colour of this camera is silver; it is very stylish and modern.
Size
This camera is around 4 inches wide and around 2 inches thick. You might say that 2 inches thick but it isn’t, not really. You could go and buy a camera what is much bigger than this and it might not have so many good things.
Bad points
• When you take a photo you have to press down the button and wait until you can see the image and then press the button all the way down. • You don’t get a case with the camera • The battery life isn’t amazing
Good Points
• Brilliant quality photos • Good flash • Zoom x3 optical zoom • Carry handle • Place for a tripod • Batteries and battery charger size AA • SD card slot • Good size LCD display
My view
I think this is a very good camera, it has everything you need. The picture quality is good, the zoom is good and the flash is good. There isn’t really a bad thing about this camera although I would have to say that the battery life isn’t very good although there is a battery charger included in this camera. The battery life isn’t brilliant because the batteries are rechargeable and they are only 1.2v unlike normal batteries which are 1.5v. You can still buy some normal batteries and use which would make them last longer although if you are using it all day everyday then you will need the rechargeable batteries. I will give this camera a 9/10 because of the things I mentioned in the bad points.
