At it's widest 28mm, it comes with an aperture of f3.0 which is kind of sluggish and not the best for low light events and you will likely find it hard to get a shallow depth of field. You will likely also have to boost your ISO setting giving you noisy pictures. For the long end, 196mm comes with f5.9 which is very slow and you would have to set slow shutter speeds.

• USB Yes
• HDMI Yes

The maximum video quality on the Casio EX-ZR10 is 1920 x 1080 and you can save in H.264 format. 1080p quality gives you an excellent balance between quality versus file size but FULL HD isn't going to give you any room to crop. The body doesn't feature a microphone and headphone socket which means you have zero control over the sound. It is perhaps best to purchase a different camera if you require good sound for your video clips.
