The EX-H5 scores highest on value for your money and ease of use, a bit lower on design and features while it scores lowest on image quality. The Casio is a good family camera, but it have some shortcomings like not being able to do optical zooming while recording movies and image quality could be better as the pictures gets worse at even ISO 200 from noise. Hopefully Casio will work on the image quality with their next camera in this line.
