Casio EXILIM EX-FC100; Burst Shooting with Style

by jessica on Tue, 2009-09-08 13:00

The Casio EXILIM EX-FC100 is not a brand new digital camera (it has been available since April), but it is a camera we think has features - and a price point - worth mentioning again.

The compact 9.1 megapixel EX-FC100 measures just 3.9" wide x 2.3" high x .9" thin and has a 5X optical zoom lens with a CMOS shift anti-shake function and a 2.7-inch Super Clear LCD. It also features a high-speed 30 shot-per-second burst rate and records video up to 1,000 frames per second in high-definition.

And with Casio's High Speed Pre-Record, the camera not only records when you hit the button, it also records instances before and after. All you do is hold the shutter half way and the FC-100 starts recording images to its temporary buffer memory. Afterward, review a slow motion sampling on the monitor and choose which instances to save to memory. Easy! The camera also has slow motion movie recording. You can actually record motion that is usually too fast for the human eye to see, and then play it back in slow motion. The frame rate can be set at 1,000 fps, 420 fps or 210 fps. Read more

by jessica on Tue, 2009-08-18 11:01

Casio today announced two new EXILIM digital cameras, the EXILIM Zoom EX-Z450 and EXILIM Zoom EX-Z90.

Both cameras feature Casio's Intelligent AF feature which automatically detects even non-human photo subjects to determine the focus and exposure area. Taking pictures of Fido, or even your trip to the mountains, can be done easier than ever thanks to this new function.

The cameras also include Casio's Dynamic Photo function, which lets you easily cut out images of a moving subject and combine them with a different still image with just a single shot (as long as the background is flat and in one color). In the past, you had to take photos twice, having separate photos with and without the subject, while keeping the camera in the same position.

The EXILIM Zoom EX-Z450 features 12.1 megapixels, 3.0-inch LCD monitor with 230,400 dots of high resolution, a wide-angle 28 mm 4X optical zoom lens, HD Movie function, CCD-shift image stabilization mechanism, Landscape Mode, a Makeup Mode, and has a battery life lasting about 550 shots on a single full charge. The EX-Z450 will be available in October and have an MSRP of $199.99. It will be available in just one color...champagne. Read more
