Broken and warranty not honored by Casio March 20, 2006
Matt in Oakland (Oakland, CA United States)
126 out of 150 found this review helpful

We've had this camera for 6 months. We loved it. Then the ring around the lens popped off after simply turning it on; it could not be reattached. The machinery inside was exposed. Casio took it back since it was under warranty, but, after we sent it to them, we were told that the lens ring was not covered. Even with their warranty in hand that stated everything (excluding the battery and power cord I believe) is covered, Casio insisted we pay nearly $200. In addition, we have been waiting 2 months to get the camera back (we still don't have it). We're so very frustrated. I would pursue them legally if I could justify the expense and effort. We are using the only alternative left to us of warning people about Casio's actions.

A good camera to carry anywhere. April 1, 2006
Y. S. Kwon (Los Angeles, CA United States)

Had the camera for about two weeks now. Although it is not a perfect camera, it's a good everyday camera.

Pros: Battery Life - It's much longer than expected. Went two weeks without charging once. It appears that Casio's claim of 300 shots per charge is accurate.

Picture quality without flash - given the size, indoor pictures without flash comes out pretty good.

Size - no need to say more. Even with a case, the camera can be carried anywhere.

Quick Camera Response - the camera is ready to use as soon as the 'on' button is pushed. Shutter lag time is minimal as well. A great camera to capture 'at the moment' pictures.

Good features - over 20 preset special features including portrait, macro, night shots, etc.

USB Cradle - Very convenient. It charges, downloads and used for viewing pictures. It retails for $50 but it was included.

Looks - Best looking camera on the market. Much better looking than Canon SD550 or Nikon S5.

Cons:

The camera did not respond when on button was pushed for a couple of hours. Thought about returning the unit, but since then it has been fine. Still cannot figure out what the problem was.

No case was included. Had to purchase one for $30 (although I'm totally happy with the case).

Macro Picture Quality - picture quality when taken up close is mediocre.

CD Manual - It's inconvenient as I have to pop in the CD. Although a print manual comes with it, it only covers basic on/off operations. All detail features are covered in the CD manual.

Overall, I'm happy with my purchase. I mainly use the camera to take my son's pictures and the quick response has been the biggest plus as he moves around constantly. I certainly recommend the camera.

Great Camera! April 19, 2006

My first digital camera was a great camera-an Olympus D-500, but it got left out in the rain, and alas, it died, wet and soggy...

This camera is excellent, I have been impressed with its digital zoom, its screen, and its ease of use... Its digital zoom is so good, that, look at the picture I uploaded to the customer images page, I can zoom in on a book with small print from 5 feet away and read the page. THis is good enough that I no longer have to pay for copies at my school. Yes, like the previous reviewer said, the screen does get fuzzy if you zoom in, but, I wonder if he/she actually purchased the camera, when you take that picture, it clears right up, even on the camera's little screen you have a perfectly clear image...and the screen is good enough that I can read that page in the book easily with out straining my eyes.

I especially like that you can half-press the camera button, and a little square on the screen will light red or green, if its green, that picture will be be perfect everytime, with no blurryness at all...Now the camera can be a little picky as to what it thinks is a good or bad picture, but even if the square doesn't turn green, you're still likely to have a good picture, I've found, but when that square is green, you can jiggle the camera and still take a clear picture. I have noticed that this camera tends towards red-eye, but most small cameras have this problem, it has to do with the small lense, any (most of the time free) photo software can solve this easily, and the camera itself does a pretty good job also...

Good for people on the go March 13, 2006

The Casio Exilim s600 is my first digital camera, and I think it's great. Although the LCD screen may only be over 80,000 mpxls, it works for me. The real selling point for me was how compact it is. This camera really can fit into your pocket, although I do have to periodically check on it to make sure I didn't press the 'on' button, which would make the lense protrude.

Pros:
-VERY small-->about half an inch thick.
-nice 2.2 inch LCD screen
-good picture quality, (see cons)
-easy to use buttons conveniently placed
-I didn't have to read the manual to figure out how to work it
-the video feature can carry up to 2 hours of good footage
-the 'best shot' features are nice. (e.g. sports, night scene, flower, text, portrait)
-won't scratch
-takes pictures very quickly
-has a certain 'wow' factor that gets you a lot of attention.

Cons:
-might feel like you are going to drop it
-the lense sticks out (unlike the sony cybershot)
-no viewfinder..but you wouldn't need it anyways.
-you need a 1gb of storage if you want to fit a lot of photos+video
-pictures don't turn out very sharp
-I'm personally not too keen on the software they give you [photoloader, photohands]
-pricy for a point and shoot

That's just my opinion; hopefully you can draw your own conclusion based on this and other reviews. Thanks!

i'm not sure. March 26, 2006

My first digital camera was a Canon S-400(4 megapixels) It worked for two years, and finally died on me couple weeks ago b/c I wasn't being careful with the lens. It also got that memory card error, which was a common problem with the canons so I wanted to try something new. The Casio LCD screen is bigger, but I've spent a good amount of my day trying to figure out the best settings for my pictures. On the LCD, the pictures are a little grainy, I can see my pores, and my face is orange, I can see every little flaw(only when you zoom in). maybe I've been wearing the wrong shade foundation, but now I wish I took better care of my Canon. I like to see good pics on the lcd before uploading them to my computer. I played with the software for a bit, I don't like it. UPDATE 4/14: The lcd screen is not that great, but the pictures turn out really good. Also, yesterday i took it to a concert and I got some great footage. The sound is awesome compared to my old canon400 where you can barely here anything except static. 4 STARS!
