Three months from introduction to on sale ain't too shabby in the camera world, and that's exactly what Casio has managed to accomplish with the
Impeccable Hybrid GPS geotagging system ; Super fast operation ; 10x zoom
Price ; A bit thick ; Hit-or-miss autofocus system
Expert review by : Tim Moynihan (pcworld.com)
The 14-megapixel, 10X-optical-zoom Casio Exilim EX-H20G ($300 as of February 13, 2011) is a great little travel companion, thanks to well-implemented in-camera mapping and GPS features that make it a near-perfect pocket megazoom camera for your vacation.
Excellent in-camera GPS and mapping ; Ultra-wide-angle 24mm lens with 10X optical zoom ; Phenomenal battery life ; Green-screen-like Dynamic Photo feature ; Very good image quality in well-lit situations ; 360-degree Slide Panorama mode
No manual controls ; Mediocre macro mode ; Digital zoom only in video mode ; No burst mode
The vacation-friendly EX-H20G has a 10X-optical-zoom lens, great GPS features, and in-camera mapping. It's a top performer in daylight, but it lacks manual controls and a few key features.

If you're an avid traveler, you'll like the sharp photos, 10x zoom lens, and integrated GPS the Casio Exilim EX-H20G offers, but if you don't need to geotag your photos, you can get better performance for the price.
Very sharp Images. High-quality 3-inch LCD. 10x zoom. 24mm wide-angle Lens. Hybrid GPS can geotag your photos without a signal (even indoors).
Competitors offer greater optical zoom in similar size bodies. Limited HD video options.
Video Capture, Connectivity, and Conclusions Video recording on is only average. Videos are stored as .MOV files at 720p30, which can natively be uploaded into YouTube and Facebook. In the $350 price range, though, you can find a model that that...

Casio's latest H-series compact "Hi-Zoom" camera, the Exilim EX-H20G is a feature packed digicam that boasts some appealing options; most of which it shares with the EX-H15. While 14-megapixels, 720p HD video recording, and a 3.0-inch LCD are pretty...

The Casio EX-H20G is a new travel-zoom camera offering a 10x wide-angle zoom lens with a focal length of 24-240mm and CCD-shift image stabilization mechanism. The 14 megapixel H20G is the first Casio compact to feature GPS technology, complete with...
As with most big zoom compacts claiming to be all in one solutions, the pluses surrounding the Casio EX-H20G - extended creative options due to that broader focal range - outweigh the negative of slightly wider physical dimensions. And it's worth...

A pocket long zoom camera with an integrated GPS and maps, the Casio EXILIM Hi-Zoom EX-H20G is based around a 14.1-megapixel CCD image sensor behind an EXILIM Optical branded 10x zoom lens which features a generous 24mm wide-angle. Maximum aperture...
10x wide-angle zoom lens ; CCD-shift image stabilization ; 3-inch high-res LCD ; Hybrid GPS ; Detailed maps for 152 cities worldwide ; Nice fit and finish ; Sits well in pocket ; Dedicated Movie button ; Dynamic Photo function for overlaying moving...
Jumpy zoom lever ; Odd power-button placement ; Digital zoom only when recording video ; GPS coordinates aren't always correct with old firmware (be sure to update firmware to 1.02 or better) ; Some color blooming ; Very soft corners, especially on the...
Fortunately, firmware 1.02 is a big improvement, providing GPS data accurate enough to use with Google Maps. Confirm that you have at least this level of firmware on a new unit.

The new Casio Exilim EX-HG20G (list price, about $350) is a pocket size camera that is a traveling companion for those who like to see where they've been. Some examples: during my test with the camera we turned down a dirt road and “got lost” in the...
Expert review by : Tim Moynihan (macworld.com)
The vacation-friendly EX-H20G has a 10x optical zoom lens, outstanding GPS features, and in-camera mapping. It's flat-out fun to use, but it lacks manual controls and low-light chops.
Although it performs well overall, a few key features are missing: It lacks manual controls, it omits a burst-shooting mode, and it doesn't shoot the sharpest photos in low light. All in all, however, the EX-H20G offers a lot more to like than to...

With their recent digital camera releases Casio has chosen to focus on pushing the boundaries of digital camera technology. While Canon and Nikon can compete simply with fundamentals–sensor quality, zoom range, maximum aperture, and so on–other...

There were times when I was living in Europe and Japan that I would have loved having a camera with GPS capabilities. My wife and I often went on unstructured/unplanned weekend adventure drives - searching for undiscovered villages, unique...
