Style comes in compact packages

This stylish, slim and compact designed Exilim EX-Z29 is pocket-friendly both in terms of price and size, with ultimate ‘take it everywhere’ portability in mind, measuring a mere 3.64” wide x 2.16” high x .91” thin.

As is common with with other cameras of this size, no optical viewfinder is provided, Casio instead preferring to offer the a 2.7″ LCD which adds to the usability of the camera as a whole, with the menus being clearer to read.

Versatile & Simple

The Exilim Z29 is extremely versatile with 23 Best Shot Modes for every occasion as well as a Motion JPEG movie mode with a resolution of 840×480, complete with sound. For YouTubers, the EX-Z29 brings with it a special capture mode, simplifying the process of making videos and getting them online. The camera also features face recognition technology to ensure that portraits come out nice and crisp. Also included is Anti-Shake DSP, which reduces photo blur from shaky hands or moving subjects, even in bad light conditions.

Keeping with the tradition of focusing on ease-of-use, set by the previous models in the Exilim Zoom series, the  easy to navigate menu system can even be further simplified by switching on ‘easy mode’,  making the Exilim EX-Z29 ideal for the first time digital camera owner, and for anyone who really just wants to turn it on and start taking great photos. Easy mode hides all the complex features, reducing the menu options to just the essentials. Menus are then reduced to show just the image size, flash mode and self-timer mode.

Availability

The Exilim EX-Z29 is expected to hit the streets in April 2009, with a street price of about £129 and comes in a range of colors – black, light blue, silver as well as pink and purple.

Verdict

Ideal for anyone who wants a simple to use, easy to carry digital compact that takes great pictures.
