Review of the Casio EXILIM EX-Z57

Casio EXILIM EX-Z57

Style is something that Casio’s EXILIM zoom range has in abundance and the EX-Z57 is no exception. Constructed from aluminium it is incredibly lightweight and small enough to fit in the palm of the hand. Like its predecessor the Z50, the Z57 has a 5MP CCD capable of producing 12.8 x 9.6 prints at 200dpi. It includes a 3x optical Pentax zoom lens with a fairly standard focal length of 35-105mm. The LCD screen is a whopping 2.7ins, which is great for viewing the menu
