“But while the 8.1-megapixel budget shooter doesn’t really bring any new features to the table, it’s a solid offering that sports a 37.5 to 112.5mm-equivalent f/2.8-5.2 lens and a roomy 2.6-inch LCD (but no optical viewfinder), and includes the ease-of-use-oriented feature set that we’ve come to expect from Exilim point-and-shoots. “-Janice Chen
