Product Description
Over the last few years the digital camera market has undergone rapid change. Not only have there been improvements in picture quality because of higher resolution, the great usability of digital cameras has also been the focus of attention as they became more compact with faster response and larger LCD monitors. One area of particular concern has been the battery life of these cameras per charge, with many users asking for digital cameras offering longer operation times.Casio's new EXILIM ZOOM EX-Z40 incorporates an EXILIM Engine, a newly developed compact image processing module with a 3 layer stack LSI that achieves high picture quality and speedy response using a 1.8V low-power system and makes the cameras' compact dimensions possible.This new camera has a battery life of 2.5 times that of previous models, allowing up to 360 photos to be taken on a single charge.This means that the camera is not only handy for travel and work applications. Another handy feature is Auto Pan Focus. When photos need to be taken in a hurry, one rapid push of the shutter button will make the camera use pan focus, thus removing the need to wait for auto focus. In combination with the approximate 1.6-second high-speed start up time and approximate 0.01-second release time lag, the features of this camera allow for even faster, more satisfying photography.Other impressive features of the EX-Z40 include the large 2.0-inch TFT LCD screen and the Direct On function for one-touch record and play modes. In addition to being USB DIRECT-PRINT compliant for direct connection to printers, the EX-Z40 is also compatible with the PictBridge standard.

 Nice little camera for a back up or just to keep in your pocket May 12, 2009
I bought this EX 40 Camera a few years ago and after taking about 1/2 million photos I dropped it in the ocean. I bought 5 cameras since then and now have a pile of what I call junk cameras. I saw this on Amazon and more then happy to buy it and start getting some great sunset photos again. I live on the beach on the Sea of Cortez in Mexico and am almost board with all the awesome sunset photos I can take here. This camera takes the best sunset photos and two of my photos from this camera have made the covers of magazines. check out my web site at www.go2rockypoint.com and see some photos. Having the video and sound record modes is a huge plus. I give this an "A"
Incredible camera for the price April 26, 2008
With 20 different "scene" shots this camera makes my pictures look semi-professional. The macro mode is incredible for close-ups and has vibrant detail in the resulting pictures. There's also a Sepia and Black and White mode for retro looking pictures apeasing the aspiring artist in us all. Along with the delay/firework setting, night shots of fireworks or lightning look stunning. I really can't sing the praises of this camera enough. I've owned it for 2 years and plan to replace it only with another Exilim. Don't hesitate buying one. Oh, and I can get over 400 shots WITH THE FLASH ON before worrying about recharging.
 great camera if you don't mind lens jamming May 12, 2006
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
About 18 months ago, purchased the Z40 for my teenage daughter.
It's a great little camera with a long battery life. Last month the lens jammed in the open position. Called Casio and would cost $200 to repair. Did a little research and found Casio has a problem with lenses jamming. Turns out the camera will accidently turn on in your pocket or purse and the lens cannot fully extend. These cheap plastic rings break and the camera is useless. I have just begun to fight and have even found a lawyer who is gathering info for a possible class action suit.
If you are going to buy this camera, get the optional insurance. You will get the camera repaired for free but it could takes months. Good luck!
 Zoom Broke 3x May 5, 2006
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
The pictures were very high quality, when the camera was working. My only complaint there was that even zoomed in, the objects of most pictures at a distance looked ant like. The camera's zoom mechanism broke 3x. The first time I had fixed at my cost. I was not sure that I had not caused the damage. One day after getting it back, the problem resurfaced and the repair people fixed it again. This was the second long repair time. About 2 months later I was at a music festival, went to turn it on and guess what? Yep, the zoom mechanism was broken again. I am not going to bother fixing it. After I get the pictures off it (the only way now is directly from the SD card), this camera is going to that great camera in the sky.

A great camera for everyday use! April 15, 2006
I was a bit skeptical of the Casio brand but I liked all the features of this camera and read a positive up review in a photography magazine so I took the leap. I haven't regreted it a bit. This is a great "casual" camera with easy settings for picking just the shot you need.
Mine has taken a lot of abuse and has never failed to perform. I highly recommend the leather belt pouch for protection during carry. The only problem I have is deciding whether to upgrade to the 6 or 7 megapixel Exilim!
