Here is an excellent video of the greatest smashes, spins and spark-ups from this year’s RoboGames, recorded at 300fps with a Casio Exilim EX-F1. It’s like Planet Earth, but instead of funky little bugs it’s funky little battle bots.
The moments that make our weekend adventures and sports amazing happen so fast, you’ve no hope of catching them at 30fps. Which is why I wish someone made a high-speed, rugged point and shoot.
Smile shutters. Blink warnings. Fart detectors. Point-and-shoot cameras have been stuffed with gimmicks for years, but the arms race isn’t ending any time soon. Casio just added golf-swing analysis to their Exilim line.
Casio’s latest addition to the Exilim lineup boasts 12.1 megapixels and an an ultra-wide angle 24mm, 10X optical zoom lens. They also claim it’s the thinnest and lightest camera in its class.
Casio’s Exilim phone (vaguely NSFW ad here) looks to cram in just about every feature you can get on a Verizon dumbphone, with a few higher-end bonuses: It’s military-grade ruggedised and features an impressive 5.1MP camera.
Slow motion makes everything more beautiful, even snow. Here’s a simple snowshoe hike during a storm, transformed by 300fps capture.
