Casio Exilim EX-Z35 {Review & Giveaway}

July 6, 2010 by Dee ·

I just love PINK! So imagine how much I’m loving my new Casio EX-Z35 camera. The Casio Exilim EX-Z35 Digital Camera is a slim, compact variation of my previous camera and gives me great results. What I love about the Casio Exilm is that it is petite and cute just like me. It is also convenient. Convenient enough to carry around in my purse and not be bothered with carrying around an oversized piece of equipment. It weighs practically nothing and can be stuffed inside of a pocket. Great for taking quick snapshots.

I’m really loving the features of the Exilim EX-Z35. Since I’m no expert photographer, I was excited to see the variety of shooting modes that would help me get the best picture without a whole lot of effort. Switching through modes is a piece of cake. With just one touch you are able to navigate from one mode to the next. And if that isn’t easy enough, there is a sample icon to help you select the perfect mode for the picture you are trying to capture. It really takes out the guesswork on what settings to use so you can shoot faster and get that shot you want!

Here are the features I just love about this camera.

EASY MODE

Easy Mode helps new comers become an expert with common settings – Using Easy Mode, photo settings are restricted to just image size, flash on/off and self timer, and these are displayed on a simplified menu screen.

ONE-BUTTON VIDEO

After using the Casio for a while I am really pleased and impressed with this camera. The photo quality of this camera is just amazing and it’s quite a sturdy little camera considering its petite size. If you ask me, it’s just what you need in a camera that you take along with you anywhere.
