Does this camera come with slow-motion capabilities? Other Casios are advertised at being capable of shooting at 1000 fps-- is this one of them?

It does, but be warned, the resolution at 1000fps is poor at 224x64 pixels. It will record video at the following high speed frame rates and resolutions: 1000fps: 224x64 480fps: 224x160 240fps: 512x384 120fps: 640x480 All of these are interlaced.

Yes it does 1000fps but the resolution is lowest at this setting. Probably you would call this a scientific analysis setting. Generally 250fps is the slowest I go as I get reasonable resolution with object movement smooth and graceful without taking too long to view. This and 120 and 250 is for more artistic type videoing. Excellent Camera. Stills and Video

Yes. It works fine. Even though the resolution is low at 1000 fps it looks good if you use a strong light souRce or work in direct sunlight. If youndo not use that it is very noisy, grainy and disappointing.

That is the problem...you can't do rapid frames.The camera looks great, feels great to hold, but if you need something to capture a fast paced activity, this isn't the one for you.I like it and recommend it for a very casual user, however will be upgrading to a more advanced piece of equipment as soon as my budget allows.

I have not found slow motion playback mode on my camera. For that I have to play it on my computer.

The lag can be as much as 15-20 seconds if you are using certain scene modes - for instance night shots. That is the primary reason I sold this camera on ebay a few months after I got it. It takes great photos, and some of the scene modes - like museum - are great, but I missed a ton of cool opportunities in the night markets in China because of slow processing. Much slower, in fact, that my 2005 era canon digital elph that I had hoped this camera would replace. :-/

No you cannot do that. The slowest speed is like a slow live panoramic . Nice and smooth but too fast for time lapse. It's a good panner but not great. It is the only one worth a damn for under 1000 that I have seen.

Yes, you can shoot continuously with the SX10is but the three options available are outmatched by those of DSLRs for subjects moving fast and unpredictably -- because of viewfinder blackout, display lag, and slow fps rates. All you can do is hold down the shutter button and hope to get lucky, which actually works pretty good for action in one spot (like an osprey about to settle onto a nest or a batter swinging at a pitch). The movie mode affords another option for tracking subjects and getting high-resolution still pics simply by pressing the shutter button while filming. The images are recorded at whatever pixel and compression settings you select (not at the lower movie choices) and the viewfinder remains more or less continually available to follow the subject (ISO, however, switches to auto). In review the movie displays first, followed by the still pics, which makes editing simple. Despite all its many virtues and versatility, the SX10is is at a disadvantage when shooting continuously in situations where the action changes direction abruptly, especially when it's moving rapidly toward and away from the camera -- as in soccer games and children at play, situations for which DSLRs with smart focus-tracking and high-rate fps features are better suited. If you absolutely need the high-performance features of a DSLR for the kinds of shooting you (want to) do regularly, then invest the extra bucks to get a good body and lens combination. Otherwise, feature for feature and dollar for dollar, limitations notwithstanding, the SX10is is hard to beat for all-around photography. Just take some time to get thoroughly acquainted with the options for continuous shooting and expect to practice for a while before frustration gives way to proficiency.

It will do 400/sec, but it reduces the frame size to almost a thumbnail. It does a really good job at 60 and 120 frames/sec with strong ambient light, but it still reduces the frame size. Overall, I think it is well worth the price. You can see a lot of detail at 120 fps.

The Ex Zr 400 does not...that is the camera I own. Youtube shows people using the feature on some Casio cameras, so it does exist on some models.

It seems slow to me also. Do you like the camera? So far I am NOT thrilled with it. My point and shoot Panasonic ZS give me better results.

Yeah - it's slow when it takes pictures. I bought it for my 6 year old nephew so he's thrilled with it.

Go to Casio High Speed Exilm EX-ZR700 in internet, and in the specs. they claim 16.1 megapixels

It cannot record in slow motion, since it has only 24p and 60i modes. However, by deinterlacing 60i footage with some very good deinterlacer and obtaining 60p video, you may get 2.5x slow-motion when transferring to 24p footage. I've got some very nice slow-motion clips by using such procedure.If you wanted to ask if the camcorder has time-lapse feature: yes, it has. The quality is slightly lower than when taking ordinary 24p or 60i clips.By the way, note that sharpness in 60i is better than in 24p mode (surprisingly).

I have no idea. Each new model has better and better flashes. I have used Casio for years and I think they have the best dollar to performance ratio.

"...shoot your moving subjects in HDTV, then scrubbing through and exporting some of the frames you like as stills."Actually, I believe Casio has a similar feature already built-in to some cameras that shoots at high frame rates and let's you pick the images you want to save or can even pick for you. It can also be set so that it will continously "pre-shoot" images in burst mode which are saved when you press the shutter button (it will hold the 30 most recent shots in temporary memory so its almost like you're shooting the past).

Yes it seems to be in slow motion when using the Magic Pix(nightshot) mode.. although I'm not sure how this looks when transfered to P.C.

It can do 60 frames per second which lends itself toward doing slow motion-y type stuff, but for stylistic slow motion you would either need a camera that can shoot at 120 frames per second or you would need some software that can interpolate between frames, like Twixtor.

Yes, I regret buying this camera due to the shutter lag- which ultimately seems to result in blurred photos if the subject is moving. The older canon Powershots like the sx100 did not have this problem.
