The HIGH SPEED EXILIM EX-F1 incorporates a new high speed CMOS sensor and high speed LSI processor. After building in 6.0 million effective pixels and a 12X optical zoom, the developers focused on achieving a burst shooting speed capability that was hitherto unheard of. Using the camera’s ultra-high speed burst shooting for still images or its high speed movie recording mode, users can capture a split second’s movement with greater detail than before, allowing them to catch each decisive moment, and even motion that the human eye cannot ordinarily perceive.

Casio Exilim EX-F1 Features

HIGH SPEED BURST
Up to 60 fps at full resolution
The EX-F1 can shoot at an amazing 60 frames per second in High Speed Burst mode. This allows you to capture up to 60 images with a single press of the button. After the images have been taken you simply save one, two or all of the images to capture the perfect moment.

In High Speed Burst mode, the frame rate can also be varied from between 1 and 60 frames per second while shooting. This means that each time you press the button you can capture up to 60 images per second for one second, or 5 images per second for 12 seconds or 10 images per second for 6 seconds ? or any other rate you’d like.

HIGH SPEED MOVIE
Video Capture at up to 1,200 fps
The 1,200 frame-per-second High Speed Movie capabilities of the EX-F1 makes digital imaging more fun than ever before. This means that you can easily shoot ultra slow-motion movies at speeds that have until now been available only on professional level cameras. This feature allows you to capture dramatic moments that cannot be seen by the naked eye, making the invisible visible.

Settings for 300fps, 600fps and variable 30-300fps are also included with the camera. While 30-300fps is selected, you can toggle the movie recording speed between 30 fps and 300 fps by pressing the SET button or by operating the function ring. This provides you with the versatility to creatively match recording speed to the action as it happens.

PRERECORD CS
High-speed recording of action that occurs before you press the shutter button
The EX-F1 allows you to capture the perfect moment even if you press the button too late. This feature works with both High Speed Burst and High Speed Movie shooting. With the amazing pre-record function the camera takes images before you fully press the button giving you the ability to virtually travel back in time so that you never miss the action.

With High Speed Burst the function works by storing up to 60 images in a buffer on the camera. Similarly, with the High Speed Movie pre-record stores five seconds of action in the camera’s buffer. When the button is pressed the images or video in the buffer are saved along with your newly record imagery.

12X OPTICAL ZOOM
Incredible zoom with digital stabilization
12X optical zoom combines with a CMOS shift stabilization for beautiful images even at high zoom factors where images are prone to blurring. HD zoom, which can be used when shooting standard movies, lets you zoom up to 48X (12X optical zoom x 4X digital zoom), with high-resolution clarity that is virtually equal to that of optical zoom.

HIGH SPEED MOVIE MANUAL RECORDING
Gain full control of your High Speed Movies
The EX-F1 lets you configure camera settings manually while using High-speed Movie. You can select A, S, or M for the recording mode, and also configure aperture, shutter speed, and ISO sensitivity settings. Manual settings let you set up for maximum image sharpness and give you full control of your digital imagery.

HIGH-DEFINITION MOVIE
Unmatched image clarity
The EX-F1 lets you shoot beautiful 1920 x 1080-pixel Full HD movies at a frame rate of 60 fields per second. After your video is recorded you can view it by connecting your camera directly to a Full HD TV for big screen viewing. The EX-F1 also comes with USB cables and software that allows you to view your HD films on your computer or to burn them to a DVD.

SLOW MOTION VIEW
View buffer images in slow motion as they are recorded
Slow Live lets you view images of fast-moving action on the camera’s monitor screen in slow motion. When the image you want to keep is on the screen, simply press the shutter button to store it.

FLASH CONTINUOUS SHOOTING
Continuous shutter even where lighting is dim
Flash Continuous Shooting lets you shoot up to 20 consecutive images at a maximum speed of 7 fps. Using the camera’s built-in LED light, you can record images with High Speed Burst at speeds ranging from 10 images to 60 fps.

BEST SHOT
Program the camera automatically for particular subject, scene, or lighting conditions
The High-Speed Exilim Series has up to 27 Best Shot Modes including two unique modes that activate the shutter when the subject enters or leaves the frame. If you want to capture an image of a hummingbird in this mode, you can focus on the flower. Then, when the hummingbird enters the frame, the shutter will fire automatically. Having up to 60 frames to choose from, you will have the exact image you want.

FACE DETECTION
Put a better face on your images with automatic Face Detection technology. Our camera adjusts instantly for optimum focus and background even if your subject is backlit or in front of a patterned backdrop. Moving targets? No problem. The camera will capture kids and pets on the go in the sharpest detail.

CMOS IMAGE STABILIZATION
The CMOS sensor shift technology reduces the effect of camera shake resulting in sharper images.
