the high-speed features of this camera are unique and fun to use.
the high speed stills shooting functions very well, with buffer pre-recording making sure you get the action. however, because of the slow lens, often the action is somewhat blurred. also, manually setting exposure (for high speed shutter, for example) is difficult and not intuitive.
high speed movie capability is nice, but at real slow-motion speed (1000f/s) quality is very bad making it a novelty feature only.
i found that the option for low-light multi-shot was very useful. you can walk around at night in town and just point and shoot. no need for a tri-pod. the quality of these shots is not perfect, but definitely adequate and expands the abilities beyond most compact cameras.
at the long end of the zoom range the camera has a lot of difficulty focusing- even at good lighting.
i found that most pictures taken have a "flat" appearance and need
post-processing to enhance contrast and adjust saturation. even then, i can't seem to get the results i want, and i go back to my older camera for everyday use,taking the casio out only for specific shoots where i need it's high speed capabilities.
