More Casio EX-F1 Slow Motion: BB Guns and Frisbees

I know we've been raving on about the Casio Exilim EX-F1 camera and its amazing high-speed shooting capabilities. And I know: we've shown you lots of very nifty footage indeed, including some shot by the lucky Wilson, who actually got to play with the thing. But we've not shown you this footage before, made by a reader and starring a BB-gun, a can, some wildlife and a dog with a frisbee. It's amazing, and it's a quiet Sunday, so check it out. It got me wondering what I'd film if I had one of these cams to hand. I decided I'd capture the old "custard powder on a stove flame" trick. What would you film for some super slo-mo action, guys?

Mo' Slow-Mo: Objects Breaking (or Not) for the Casio EX-F1

Our friend Robert Woodhead (of slow-mo Mentos-n-Coke fame) has kindly shared another of his Casio Exilim EX-F1 masterpieces, this time water balloons and china slowly shattering (and occasionally not shattering) to the tune of Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture. They're a mixture of 300, 600 and 1200 frame-per-second shots, set up in an uncomfortably vertical version of widescreen (tallscreen?), but they sure are fun. When will the slow-mo clips cease? you ask. Never, that's when. [Robert Woodhead]

Samsung Challenges Casio with $850 Slow-Mo HMX20 HD Camcorder

As excited as we are about Casio's Exilim EX-F1 camera with slow-mo and high-def video modes, we're even more thrilled to see actual competition in this category. Samsung announced its HMX20C (or HMX20) at CES, and is now officially shipping it, at least in Korea, for a price around $850. That's about $150 less than Casio's Hiro Nakamura supercam. Here's what's similar about the two models: More »

Dice Stacking a Camera Trick? Nope, Here's Slo-Mo Proof


When we posted an unexpectedly well-received video of dice stacking yesterday, little did we realize that this peculiar activity has been developed into an artform by some amazing magicians. Here's a new dice stacking video from Thomas Fischbach, the same guy we saw in the video update yesterday. For those of you who thought this was all a camera trick, Fischbach shows us his moves in ultra-slow motion. That's some awfully quick sleight-of-hand right there. [Thomas Fischbach on YouTube]
