Currently the only 10X "super-zoom" with a slim body (like the Casio Exilim series) is the Kodak V610.

You said you "love nature" so I presume you may want to take wildlife picture and need a long zoom (instead of a wide angle lens). The V610 has two lens with a combined focal length of 38 - 380 mm. The lenses are internal so there are no extending parts. The camera is a little wide but very slim. The picture quality is, however, average.
