'Part of the company's Zoom series, the Z1080 features increased ISO sensitivity'
'I found the photo software bundled with the EX-Z1080 fairly useless: It creates an on-screen album for viewing and organizing photos, but it lacks real photo-editing tools.'
'the Casio Z1000 can be quite pleasing in bright outdoor conditions'
'the Casio EX-Z1000 did capture noisy images.'
'It can be quite jarring when the screen suddenly brightens after you've locked and framed your photo, and it makes it difficult to judge whether the photo is properly exposed.'
'With a suggested list price of $399, it's not the cheapest ultra-compact around'
'The QV-4000 offers a range of high-end features, from a high-speed, auto-focus zoom lens and five shooting modes (including full manual and 60-second time exposures) to five focus modes (like an easy-to-use movable-spot focus) and seven white-balance options.'
'it has a very easy to use menu, which is displayed on the bright 1.8” color LCD.'
'features a full compliment of exposure modes'
'The only important capability the QV-4000 lacks is a high ISO-equivalent setting for shooting in low light without flash,'
