Cons:
Inconsistent image quality. Most high-speed features are gimmicky. Poor LCD quality. |

| Conclusion: |
|
| Migrating high-speed technology into an ultra-portable chassis seemed like the next logical step for Casio. The Casio Exilim EX-FC100 rocks most of the Exilim EX-FH20's features in its pint-sized camera body and even flaunts a 5x optical zoom range. We had a blast with the Exilim EX-FC100, thanks mostly to the cavalcade of high-speed shooting options and quirky Best Shot modes. However, most of them functioned on a mediocre level and at the end we were left with the same gimmicky feeling as with the Exilim EX-FH20. We experienced the best results in the 30fps high-speed shooting mode, but 1,000fps high-speed video yielded the same performance and Trident gum-sized resolution as the Exilim EX-FH20. Image quality was hit or miss across the board, and we discovered some crucial flaws that held the Exilim EX-FC100 hostage in the consumer realm. If lots of innovate/gimmicky features are enticing to you, then the Casio Exilim EX-FC100 is right up your alley. |
