Casio EXILIM EX-Z350, An Ultra-Compact And Inexpensive
Housing Exilim EX-Z350 is not much different from most digital cameras Casio, but some differences in appearance are. Especially noticeable redesigned controls, which we consider below. The camera body is thin and lightweight, without accessories it weighs less than 100 grams. Most of the hull panels, with the exception of the side plates and the protection of the display, made of metal: front panel – a rough silver surface and the rear – with a smooth, painted by titanium.
In addition to the silver version, which came to us for testing are also available in pink, turquoise, light brown and black versions. Assembled housing quality, it’s pretty hard, so when trying to twist it does not bend and does not emit any sound. Metal panel, in contrast to the protective glass screen, not afraid of any fingerprints or scratches. Glass also suffers from greasy fingers, and minor scratches, especially when transporting the camera without a case in one bag with various small things.
The front panel microphone hole, a window flash, self-timer indicator lamp shutter and lens, surrounded by a decorative silver ring, which sometimes casts a glare when shooting in sunny weather, especially for macro photography when the subject is close to the camera body.Above is only a power button and two-tier camera shutter key lever to control zoom, move that is extremely small.
But the back side a little unusual – the location of the keys has changed significantly compared to its predecessor Z300. Although the changes are not as striking as it seems at first sight – four conventional keys shift to viewing and recording the call menu and scene modes BestShot rotated counterclockwise by 90 degrees, also changed their shape – instead of the usual round aluminum buttons are now used plastic keys of complex shape. Round Five-way key remains unchanged, as well as key movie. It is worth recalling that it was, Casio was the first to use a separate key video that eventually picked up and appreciated the other manufacturers.
Bottom placed the system speaker compartment cover memory cards and batteries, and tripod socket, which for some reason, made of plastic, also fairly mild, so the sloppy installation is quite possible to cut a new thread or rather, to spoil the existing one.The left side surface is empty, and the right ear are mounting strap and a rubber plug that hides the connector micro-USB.
