We like:
Stunning slow-motion movies; continuous flash shooting; long lens; manual features
We don't like:
Heavy and bulky; slow zoom; 'only' 6 megapixels; very expensive
CNET.co.uk judgement:
It's like an SLR but faster. It's a like a compact but smarter. It's like a movie camera but (slightly) smaller. In fact, Casio's EX-F1 is like nothing else out there. If high-speed sport or social photography and stunning slow-mo movies are your thing, there's nothing to beat it. But for anyone into more sedate snapping, there are better bargains to be had
