The first camera from this line is the EX-G1, a totally mean looking camera that can withstand falls from up to 7 feet and is waterproof up to 10 feet (or 60 minutes in water). This is definitely going to be a camera for the clumsy and you can expect it for about $300 come this December — a perfect holiday gift!
I got an email this morning from ASOS saying that they were now carrying the Casio W86-1V watch with the infamous Illuminator technology. This exact model was my very first watch when I was a kid and I fondly remember it lasting a very long time and holding up to lots of use. In fact, I still have this very same watch in my closet and I’m tempted to get it out and replace the battery in order to bring life to it again. Unfortunately, this hot item is already sold out at ASOS, but you can pick it up for cheaper at Amazon.com (price: $12.95).
Shot at 300fps on a Casio EX-F1, Vicente Sahuc captured slow-motion shots of New York City in an unusual but very compelling way. The video he put together to showcase his video clips is beautiful from beginning to end, and his choice of U2’s “Numb” as the soundtrack to the video is undoubtedly a good one.
Amazing what you can do with a decent camera on rollerblades, isn’t it? If anybody wants a good sense of New York City in a short amount of time, I think this video absolutely captures it all.
Casio and Goodenough have “collaborated” on a version of the classic GW-M5600 G-Shock and it’s not really anything that spectacular. In fact, it’s pretty darn ordinary.
If this is what this industry calls collaboration, then I’m going to go ahead and slap Doobybrain stickers on everything and call the city mine. Because well, that’s what Goodenough did here essentially.
Ever since I got to play with a Casio EX-FH20 camera with high frame rate recording capabilities at the WIRED store last week, I’ve been literally obsessed with slow-motion videos. Casio currently offers still digital cameras with the ability to capture videos at high frame rates and the results that are posted online are very impressive.
I really want to invest in a camera that can do high frame rate recording. If I had one, I’d totally film the most mundane moments of my life in dramatic slow-motion and play them back with some orchestral music playing in the background. Haha.
