Last year Casio released the 5.0mp EX-S500 card camera to rave reviews.  The slim profile and ease of use made it one of the most portable and capable point and shoot cameras on the market.  Scarcely six months after the release of the EX-S500 Casio announced its replacement, the EX-S600.  As the name suggests, the EX-S600 is a refreshed version of its predecessor.  Important improvements include an increase in picture size from 5.0mp to 6.0mp, brighter LCD screen, and longer battery life.

User’s Manual & CDs

The user’s manual is huge, but actually presents seven different languages.  If you’ve owned a digital camera before, it’s not a necessary read.  In fact, it’s only the “Basic Reference”.  In order to view the full user’s guide in pdf, you have to go online and register.  When turned on for the first time, the camera asks for your preferred language and specific location to the nearest city.  This sets the time and date, allowing proper compensation for daylight savings.
