Buyer beware I ordered this camera based on the reviews however, I found the camera to be less user friendly than the Pentax camera I previously owned.

Rating: - overall a good camera
The Exilim camera is an overall good camera,have not used it a great deal yet, I'm fixing to go on vaction and plan to use it much then.

Rating: - lousy close ups
My first digital camera was a Casio Exilim Z4, which I loved. It was very easy to use, took very crisp close-up (macro) photos and had a dock for re-charging. Then, I dropped it. So, I bought this Z9 and have been trying and trying to get some clean close-up detailed photos, but no luck.
For me, it's a waste of money and I will be looking for another camera.
Rating: - Great Compact Camera
The most wonderful feature of this camera is its almost-total absence of that horrible lag time between the push of the shutter release and the actual taking of the photo! For a change I don't miss those pictures of my grandchildren because a camera takes too long to actually take the desired shot! This camera is notable for that one feature alone but besides that, it is easy to take along in a pocket, has plenty of extra features and takes great pictures. What more could I want in a camera!
