Customer Feedback :
My aim in purchasing the EX-H10 was to find an ultra-compact camera with a long zoom and reasonable picture quality. The length and width are about the same as the competing Lumix, Canon, and Stylus 9000 models. The Stylus 7010 is slightly smaller and lighter, but had bad reviews. The Casio EX-H10 is about an ounce or two lighter than competing cameras at 6.8 oz and almost a half inch smaller in depth at 0.9 inches. That makes a difference. However, it feels heavier than the EX-Z850 and is a little bulkier. I recently tried out the Stylus TZ7 (also called the ZS3) and it was decidedly heavier at 8 oz and 1/2″ thicker.
The image quality of photos is good. It is not what one expects from a good SLR with a larger sensor, but pleasing. The zoom starts at 24mm — good for those of us who seek a wide-angle camera. The operation is straightforward. Video is more than simply satisfactory. I don’t like the photos one gets with the flash, but when it is turned off, the quality again is good.
The camera slips easily into a pocket, it has a huge capacity of shots on the battery — claimed 1000 and I don’t doubt it. What sold me was the combination of very small size, light weight, good image quality, and long zoom.
