Pros: Packed with features. Solid design. Improved color and detail in some shooting environments

Cons: Inconsistent image quality. Most high-speed features are gimmicky. Poor LCD quality

Verdict: Aesthetically, the Casio Exilim EX-FC100 is a suave smooth talker with its rounded edges and black trim. We liked the pronounced shutter button zoom toggle, though its movement was a little too rigid and spastic. A little WD40 in the production house ...

Pros: Records excellent slow-motion movies, Easy-to-master UI, Fast shot-to-shot speeds, Powerful 5X zoom lens

Cons: Weak low-light performance, Slightly heavy for a point-and-shoot, No HDMI connection

Verdict: At $349, Casio's Exilim EX-FC100 is a solid high-end point-and-shoot but with a couple of drawbacks. Macro mode is a pain to access, and this camera is on the heavy side, even though it has a generous 5X zoom. What makes the EX-FC100 a gem is its fast ...

Review summary: The 9.1-megapixel Casio Exilim EX-FC100 ($349.99 list) has some cool features that no other compact point-and-shooter can offer. It can snap 30 6MP images in 1 second. And it can capture some of these before you hit the shutter release, so you'll have ...

Cons: Pricey. Images are less sharp than those of competitively priced cameras. Purple fringing in high-contrast areas. Boots slowly

Verdict: The Casio Exilim EX-FC100 has some impressive features that we haven't seen on other compact point-and-shoot cameras, but a high price and so-so image quality prevent it from being a must-have.

Review summary: With 30fps continuous, 1,000fps video and HD as well, the FC100 is a high-speed marvel.
