Strengths: Beautiful design and size.
10 mega pixels.
Auto Focus modes.
Weaknesses: No image stabilization.
Some of the pictures have more noise than desirable.
Can sometimes feel awkward to operate due to the size.
Summary: The Casio Exilim S10 is undeniably one of the best looking ultracompact cameras on the market. It's small, has a giant, bright viewscreen, and comes in 4 colors, all of which look very good.
Casio sells this as the world's smallest 10 mega pixel camera, which may be true, but 10 mega pixels is a little overkill for normal point-and-shoot camera usage. It doesn't hurt though, if you have enough memory.
The S10 has a neat function called autofocus. When using autofocus the camera automatically take a picture when the subject is stable in one mode, when a moving subject in clear while panning in another, or when the subject smiles and shows some teeth in another mode. This innovation works fairly well; not great, but well enough to be useful.
Also, the S10 turns on and is ready to take a picture very quickly.
Most of the other options are carryovers and upgrades to older Casio cameras (which isn't at all a bad thing.) The normal stereotype of Casio's applies to this camera: it looks great, has tons of easy-to-use options, but sometimes lack a little in image quality. Overall, it's a very good camera for simple point-and-shoot purposes.
