Casio Exilim FC-100 Makes All Your Action Movie Dreams Come True

The folks over at CrunchGear had nothing better to do than test out the Exilim FC-100’s super-slow motion capability. After some editing and slapping a soundtrack, here’s what they shared with us:
Some quick thoughts:
The “thin” video was shot at 1000FPS, but I had to speed it up to make it watchable — it’s really slow. The full frame stuff is at 420FPS, which is a little easier to relate to and has a bigger picture to boot. I’m sorry to say that the quality of the video (size and compression-wise) is pretty awful, but expecting megaslow and HQ video from a point-and-shoot is just greedy. Remember, this thing fits in your front pocket. Totally insane.
Long-term though, I’m not really sure if this camera offers anything significant. The super slow-mo mode is pretty cool, but will probably wear-off after a few weeks or months.
