Casio Tryx Digital Camera Review
The look of the Tryx is its biggest selling point. The camera, which comes in black or white, is super-slim and light, at 2.3 by 4.8 by 0.6 inches (HWD) and 5.5 ounces. When the tripod is folded up, the camera looks a lot more like a smartphone. Between the integrated tripod and the articulating LCD, there's no right or wrong way to hold this camera. There are only two buttons to be found: Power, and the shutter release, both next to the touch-screen LCD.The LCD is very sharp, packing 460k dots into a 3-inch display. The Editors' Choice Sony Bloggie Touch pocket camcorder ($199.99, 4 stars) has a 3-inch display filled with a more typical 230K dots—the Tryx is twice as sharp. It's a high-quality display for a $250 camera: The Canon PowerShot Elph 300 HS ($249.99, 4 stars) includes a 2.7-inch display, filled with 230K dots. Images look very clear on the Tryx's LCD viewfinder, and it's easy to see from far away.
