Five new digital cameras from Casio
Guess they couldn't let Pentax hog the spotlight for too long because Casio's just announced five new compact digital cameras of their own, including four new Exilims. Here we go:
The Casio Exilim Pro EX-P700 is an upgrade to their Exilim Pro EX-P600, getting a bump up to seven megapixels but keeping the same 2-inch LCD screen and 4x optical zoom lens.

The Casio Exilim Zoom EX-Z50 and Exilim Zoom EX-Z55 (pictured above) are pretty much the same, both have a resolution of 5.3 megapixels and a 3x optical zoom lens, with the main difference being that the Z55 has a slightly larger LCD screen than the Z50 (2.5-inch vs. 2-inch). Battery life on both models is supposed to be 10% better than that of the EX-Z40.

Casio claims that the Casio Exilim Card EX-S100 is the world's smallest digital camera with optical zoom and we're inclined to agree with them. Made of stainless steel, the EX-S100 is just 17mm thick, has a resolution 3.2 megapixels, a 2-inch LCD screen, and a 2.8x optical zoom lens.

The six megapixel Casio QV-R61 is meant as an entry-level model for their QV series of cameras, and has a 3x optical zoom lense and a 2-inch LCD screen (you can probably tell we're less excited about this one).
