    Four more compact cameras from Casio: EX-Z400, EX-Z270, EX-S12, and "sleek and sturdy" EX-S5. The top end of these lower-end shooters is the Z400 (pictured above) which features a wide-angle 28mm, 4x optical zoom, 3.0-inch LCD, CCD-shift anti-shake, and 550-shot battery. The Z270 drops the LCD down to 2.7-inches while the 12.1 megapixel S12 drops the zoom to 3x. Bringing up the rear is the 10.1 megapixel EX-S5 with YouTube capture mode for those who want (or need, frankly) to keep it simple. Sorry no 30fps burst or super slow mo' in this lot. Prices will range from $300 for the Z400 on down to $180 for the S5 when these pop for retail in March.%Gallery-41036%

  • Hands-on with Casio's EX-FS10 and EX-FC100 compacts: 30fps burst, 1000fps video

    After the presser, we had the chance to go hands-on with Casio's high-bursting EX-FS10 and EX-FC100 compacts here at CES. The EX-FS10 (pictured above) was particularly impressive considering its small size and 30fps burst mode capability (and 1000fps movie mode for slow motion playback) that puts DSLRs to shame. However, any advantage is bound to end there as that integrated lens and tiny sensor are outclassed by even the lowest end DSLR. We weren't able to sample the shooting modes, but damn if these didn't feel good in hand. More in the gallery below including the new EX-Z400, EX-Z270, and EX-S12 compacts with EXILIM Engine 4.0 processing and dynamic photo function we saw during the press event. %Gallery-40878%
