Imagine my delight, then, upon finding a camera which not only fulfills my expectations of a point-and-shoot, but also takes steps toward being a such a useful imaging device that any photographer or cinematographer would be proud to own one.
But it has its priorities in the right places, and it has some of the features I have been expecting in vain for years. If you need a demonstration of this, check out our first slow-mo reel and then the second one , which should be publishing concurrently with this review.
What the EX-FC does, in a nutshell, is use the sensor in more ways than the two that are on every camera, to wit, taking pictures at one of several sizes and making 30fps video.
Few cameras offer significantly more than these functions, even if they garnish them with face detection and the like. Search me. The EX-F1 that came out last year was a breakthrough to be sure, but its megazoom form factor and high price made it a difficult camera to recommend.
Now is a good time to note that the two cameras are mostly identical, except that the FS10 has a smaller 3x zoom instead of 5x, while being significantly slimmer and having a slightly higher max shutter speed. The pictures are of the EX-FC If so, skip to the end of this paragraph. It does this by only taking the information from a small part of the CMOS sensor — the smaller the area, the faster it can pull the information off to make a frame before starting over.
Fortunately shooting at that speed is equally useless: it renders a finger snapping into a second clip that is unbelievably boring. Click on the image at right for a better idea of these sizes. Now this feature is just cool. That is worth a pat on the back all by itself.
Very cool, and very fun to use. But this thing also takes pictures, right? Casio probably falls in the middle of the pack here, with a pretty fair amount of noise and only so-so sharpness when you look closely.

In , Casio launched the highly anticipated EX-F1 and EX-FH20, boasting high-speed burst shooting capabilities to ensure that users would never miss a crucial moment again, not to mention the ability to record high-speed movies that capture motion too fast for the human eye to perceive.
These stylish cameras are the first bold step in a major transformation of the traditional definition of the photograph, offering users entirely new ways of enjoying still and moving images.
The EX-FS10 is a card-sized camera just. These cameras also offer a number of other innovative functions including allowing the user to capture a still image while viewing the movement of their subject in slow motion and automatically selecting and saving one frame from continuous shots.
Users can also cut and paste several rapid-succession images to create a moving subject on a still background. This function makes it easy for users to create composite scenes from an image juxtaposition that exists only in virtual reality, or they can create a composite image that conveys a certain message.
Casio technologies like these are creating whole new avenues of enjoyment that go far beyond mere picture-taking, delivering greater creative and viewing pleasure. Casio has set up a special website that demonstrates many interesting ways to use the Dynamic Photo function. Following the release of the cameras, Casio will offer new services that expand the fun of the Dynamic Photo function.

Easy, convenient functions that make the most of high-speed burst shooting These cameras can automatically record just the best of the images captured in a high-speed burst.
Also, a number of images from a burst can be combined into a single image. It is this high-speed burst capability that offers the functionality for easily creating photos precisely in accordance with the wishes of the user. After taking a set of shots, there is no need to go to the trouble of manually select the best one. Slow Motion View By pressing a dedicated button during shooting, it is possible to view the movement of the subject in slow motion on the LCD monitor.
The user can press the shutter while viewing the LCD monitor, selecting the perfect moment to capture from a scene that looks as if time has been slowed down. High-Speed Anti-Shake and High-Speed Night Scene functions These functions work because the cameras can combine a number of images taken in burst mode, and then align the position of the subject to form a single shot.
This means that, even without a tripod, zoom photography and night shots are beautifully rendered, virtually making photo blur a thing of the past. The best image will be saved. Lag Correction These cameras make it possible to set in advance the time lag between the moment that the user wants to capture and the actual time of taking the picture.
This way, it is possible to capture that precious instant at any time, with minimal lag. This works because the cameras select from the images they temporarily store in their burst mode buffers the one image that was taken at the specified interval prior to the shutter being released, and just that image is saved. High-speed movie recording at up to 1, fps These cameras have a high-speed movie function that can record motion that is ordinarily too fast for the human eye to see, and then play it back in ultra-slow motion.
The frame rate can be set at fps, fps or fps. Also, even while recording a movie clip at the standard speed 30 fps , by pressing a single button the frame rate can be changed to the fps high-speed mode.

New high-speed image processing engine allows moving subjects to be cut and pasted onto still backgrounds or other images.
It delivers outstanding color reproduction and a rich tonal range that guarantees superior visual expression. Noise reduction at high-sensitivity levels also helps to produce high-quality, beautiful images. The new engine successfully combines the pursuit of radical new functionality with improvements to many conventional camera features. Dynamic Photo function, where the subject moves against a still background Thanks to the high-speed image processing capability of the new engine, a moving subject can be cut out of a number of images that have been shot and combined with a different still shot that forms the background.
A unique digital camera image where only the main subject in the photo is moving can be created using just the camera, with no editing on a computer. Other functions that utilize the new image processing engine Hand-held night photography EX-Z and EX-Z only , and shooting in adverse lighting conditions In cases where it can be difficult to get a good shot, such as with night scenes which tend to result in photo blur, or where backlighting can cause poor exposure of faces or the background, these cameras automatically analyze the situation and make the most appropriate settings.
This means that all the user has to do is to press the shutter button to take beautiful pictures. Tracking AF Using the image analysis technology in the new engine, the ability of the auto focus function to automatically follow a moving subject has been refined. In addition to improvements to the accuracy of auto focus tracking, when a subject leaves the frame the camera makes a record of it, and when the same subject once again enters the frame it is recognized by the camera, and auto focusing is resumed.
The photographer can choose from one of twelve levels of skin beauty using different strengths of image processing, and can shoot after viewing the results in the LCD monitor. HD Movie function Just by pressing the dedicated movie button, these cameras will record beautiful HD movies at a size of x pixels. The edging that frames the body presents a light, casual feel, but at the same time gives the user the sense that this camera is tough and reliable.
