(3 out of 5)

MSRP: $199


A solid point-and-shoot camera with all the right connections.

Review date: Sep 16, 2008

In this era of cool, neat-looking, ergonomic gadgets, Casio’s Exilim EX-Z150 ranks right up there with the iPod and iPhone. The EX-Z150 is a stylish, ultra-slim, all-metal digital camera that will turn heads whenever it’s whipped out. Although this fun, easy-to-use device is capable of capturing good-quality stills and videos, as well as showing and sharing them on a bright 3-inch LCD screen, the EX-Z150’s slow shooting speed and inconsistent exposure can be frustrating. Design and Controls Besides the obligatory silver and black bodies, the EX-Z150 is available in teen-pleasing red, pink, and green colors. It even has five user-selectable funky sounds to accompany various functions. At 3.8 x 2.3 x 0.8 inches and 5.2 ounces, the EX-Z150 has a sleek tactility that makes it easy to hold and use, and its 3-inch LCD dominates the back of the camera.
