Casio rolls out Exilim EX-Z2300, EX-ZR10 pocket digital cameras
Casio is on a roll with the announcements today, continuing on with the introduction of colorful EX-Z2300 and EX-ZR10 ultra-compact digital cameras.
Based on the spec sheets, both of these seem like capable pocket cameras. The higher-end of the two is definitely the EX-ZR10 with HDR technology and full HD 1080p video recording. It also boasts something called HDR-ART mode, which allows the photographer to add some artistic touches here and there.
Let's take a closer look at each of these new Casio point-and-shoots to get a better idea of where they stand:
