Anyone got their paws on the Casio EXILIM-EX-F1?

Apparently it can record at 300FPS! Just curious; it's obviously not going to the camera of choice for mainstay professional wildlife photography, but something that mental could have some fun uses; film slow motion stuff?

I got the next model on - EX-FH20, purely for the slomo stuff, but it also does HD video.

The super hi-speed option gives you a video the size of a postage stamp - not much use IMO, but the 210 fps option is not bad - 480 x 360. It's great fun to play with and could have practical uses (studying movement, sports technique etc). Here's one of the first videos I put together:

If you're tempted, be aware that there are certain limitations:
- The "she walked in the room" instant toggle between 30 fps and 210 fps doesn't look very natural at 30 fps (Charlie Chaplin effect!)
- No focus/zoom/sound at high speed

Aww ace, more or less what it was designed to do I guess; but as someone pointed out elsewhere, at a price we mere mortals can afford

Lovely dogs mate :)
