The highlight of several Casio camera announcements today is the 6-megapixel Exilim Pro EX-F1, a compact with a 12x optical zoom lens that has the fastest burst shooting available. It is capable of shooting 6-megapixel still images at 60 frames per second (fps) and 336 x 96 movies at 1200fps, speeds that are not comparable to any digital camera currently on the market. It will retail for $999 when it hits the shelves this spring. Casio attributes the high speed to a new CMOS sensor and LSI processor. Prior to the F1’s announcement, point-and-shoots and compacts that shot 3fps were considered fast. Canon’s EOS-1D Mark III sets the burst shooting benchmark for digital SLRs with 10fps.
