Casio EXILIM EX-V7 Review


Summary: Let it be clear, the Casio EX-V7 is a finely designed camera, easy to operate and has a lot of creative application possibilities. It is a great camera for snapshots and is easy to use, but the demanding user will soon discover its limitations. This is not the group Casio wishes to target, however. The specifications, the extensive... Read the full review

Summary: The Casio Exilim EX-V7 suffers from nearly every possible image quality problem. Although it produces images with good color and white-balance, its images are soft with blurry corners and show both strong distortion and strong vignetting. These problems cannot be overlooked. So, even though this ultra-compact digital camera packs a 7X... Read the full review
