 Piece of junk. Avoid Casio cameras March 6, 2010

Had this camera a couple of months before it broke. When I turned it on the lens came out crooked and the camera wouldn't work. Since it was comfortably under warranty I sent it to Casio, which in turn sent me a repair bill for $94--$10 more than I paid for the camera--with no explanation. The camera was never mistreated, but I sure feel like I was. They even wanted $10 to return the broken camera if I didn't want it repaired. I told them to keep it since the photo quality was never that great to begin with and the control buttons are way too small for human fingers. I understand that inexpensive cameras sometimes break but we have every right to expect the manufacturer to honor its warranty if said camera breaks within the warranty period. So, no more Casio products for me. My Canon Elph has been providing trouble-free service for 4 years. It cost more than twice as much as this Casio piece of junk but you really do get what you pay for.
 Works well for the price February 9, 2010

This is a cheap portable digital camera, and when you buy it expect it to perform as such. It takes great pictures in the sun, or bright indoors, but struggles like most cheaper models in lower light conditions. When you use the flash the colors always are off, and if you don't use the flash (when it is not naturally bright enough) things get blurry. All that being said. Its cheap, portable, high-quality (when conditions are right) camera. If you want to spend <100 on a camera this is a great choice. I am satisfied with it.
Casio tech support doesn't know their cameras..... February 8, 2010

I got this camera for $74.95 at Amazon during the holidays. It doesn't have panoramic, like the nikon s220. Photo quality seems to be roughly on par with those of the nikon, as I compare photos taken with both cameras.
I'm no photog nut. I just want a simple camera.
One thing both the nikon and the casio have are best shot settings, which supposedly have settings optimized for night shooting, magazines, etc.
The nikon's best shot modes are a little better than those for exz33. Shots taken on the casio in best shot mode come out blurred, underexposed, etc.
On the "night scene" best shot setting, the flash doesn't come on (??) I called casio a month ago. The first rep automatically said that there was something wrong with the camera and I'd have to send it in for repairs.
I called back in again, and the 2nd rep did a bit more troubleshooting. She said she had the exact camera model on hand, and guided me step by step. End result, on my camera, the flash still didn't come on, but she claimed one her camera, for the night scene mode, the flash did come on.
Well, on the strength of that, I exchanged my camera and had Amazon send me another one.
In the meantime, while waiting for the camera, I went to Target and tried a working display casio camera. It was a different 'ex' model, but had the same options. Lo and behold, in the night mode, the flash didn't come on!
When I got my replacement camera, I tried the night mode, and no flash, as before.
I even bought another exz33 from Walmart, and tried that, with the same result.
The thing is, in the auto mode, the flash comes on, and everything works just fine. Even in the best shot setting, "night scene portrait", the flash comes on.
At this point, I decided to call casio again, and explained to them that, having tried at least 3 exz33's, I got the same result, and it's unlikely that I'd get 3 random defective cameras. I also told her I got the same result on another model of 'ex' camera.
She couldn't tell me anything aside from telling me to send it in.
Obviously, her tty terminal didn't have any other recommendation.
These people don't know their cameras from their calculators.
In the meantime, I've decided to hang on to my casio, because in the auto mode, everything works like a charm. I'll just steer clear of the Best Shot settings, because the results are the same across ALL of the casios I've tried, blurred and underexposed.
The nikon is at least $29 more, and the $74.95 price tag is as cheap as I'm likely to get. Already, the price of the exz33 is $92.95 at Amazon. At this price point, I recommend getting a nikon s220. I don't know if nikon's tech support is a clueless as casio's.
Bottom line, don't expect much from casio's tech support.
Great camera February 8, 2010

Small, lightweight, easy to use and understand. Outstanding picture quality. Videos turn out great also.
Great camera for the price and durable February 3, 2010

I bought the camera for my second deployment to Iraq in 2007 and it's still going strong. Image quality is awesome for what you pay for. Battery life is long enough to not have to recharge for 2 weeks. I can't complain except for I won't use it much since i have an SLR but whenever I go out I throw it in my backpack and it always comes in handy.
