Casio Exilim EX-FC100 (black)

Amazing high-speed features for size, cost; integrated Eye-Fi support; very good regular performance

Mixed photo quality; narrow lens; noisy AF system; high-speed modes require low resolutions; no optical zoom while recording movies

Casio provides affordable, advanced high-speed shooting for the masses with the Exilim EX-FC100, but other aspects lag behind its class.

There's no doubt the high-speed photo and movie shooting features of the Casio Exilim EX-FC100 are remarkable given its size and price. Key specsCasio Exilim EX-FC100Price (MSRP)$300Dimensions (WHD)3.9 x 2.3 x 0.9 inchesWeight (with battery and...

Exilim EX-FC100

By Tim Barribeau

Casio has managed to squeeze the extremely high-speed photography and slow-motion video into the EX-FC100, which takes 9-megapixel images (or 6 megapixels at 30 frames per second) and records video at up to 1000 frames per second. While it had some ...

The Casio Exilim EX-FC100 is an utter speed demon of a camera, to the extent we're tempted to put chrome rims and a spoiler on it. The ability to capture still photographs at 30 frames per second, and slow-motion video at up to 1000 fps, in a far more ...

Casio Exilim EX-FC100

By Tim Barribeau

The Casio Exilim EX-FC100 takes the impressive speed of the EX-F1 and EX-FH20 and squeezes it into a much smaller, $330 package. It shoots nine-megapixel images, or six-megapixel photos at 30fps. It can also record slow motion video at 1000fps (224x64 ...

The strength of the EX-FC100 is obviously in its extreme speed. In other features it was noticeably lacking, including its pedestrian LCD, cramped controls, and illogical menu system. However, many of these small problems pale beside the ability to ...

Casio Exilim EX-FC100

By Dana Wollman

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

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

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 ...

Casio Exilim EX-FC100 review

By Mike Perlman

High-speed reaches the compact world, but is it worth all the frame rates? Read the full Casio Exilim EX-FC100 review here.

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

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

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 ...

Review: Casio Exilim EX-FC100 digital camera

By Ben Long

It's the high-speed shooting features that really set the Exilim EX-FC100 from other point-and-shoot cameras. Otherwise, it's a very capable device, offering all of the features you'd expect in a compact, pocket-size camera.

Excellent high-speed shooting features ; dedicated buttons for high-speed features ; very good image quality ; nice design

Regular video shooting plagued by weird motion artifacts ; focusing troubles when shooting video with full zoom

As a point-and-shoot camera, the EX-FC100 is fairly typical: it has a 9-megapixel sensor, allowing you to extract large prints from your images, a 5x optical zoom for extra telephoto reach, a stabilized sensor for sharper handheld shooting, and all of ...

Review: Casio EX-FC100 digital camera

By Sal Cangeloso

After the release of Casio's EX-FH20 digital camera, it was only a matter of time until the company trickled down the technology of high-speed shooting and HD video capture to a pocketable point-and-shoot. The FH-20, as you recall, is Casio's follow ...

Casio EX-FC100

By PJ Jacobowitz

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 ...

5X optical zoom lens. Captures photos before shutter button is pressed. Records video in 720p30 HD and in slow motion. Integrated Eye-Fi support helps preserve battery life

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

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.

All ShotsCasio's Exilim line is known for being sleek and thin, but the 5.1-ounce EX-FC100 measures a relatively thick 2.3 by 3.9 by 0.9 inches (HWD). With the Casio Exilim EX-FC100, you do get a lot of fun and unique features. Benchmark Test...
