What owners like
Casio Exilim EX-G1 works best when you want beach days, rain, travel, and rougher bags where a normal compact feels too delicate rather than a technically perfect modern camera; its 1/2.3-inch (6.17 x 4.55 mm) CCD and 38-114 mm equivalent, F3.9-5.4 are the main character of the look.

Check the lens movement, flash, screen, buttons, and card door calmly before relying on it; older compact bodies can need a little patience without being a bad buy.
