That’s unfortunate. Now I’m torn between this and the Panasonic TZ7

@Joe – No zoom during video.

Could you zoom in and out while shooting video?

@Omar – If still quality is what you are after, I would be looking at a Canon or Sony point and shoot. On the Casio, I think your high-FPS shots will print just fine up to about 8×10 if you are in good lighting.

@Cleo – You are correct, the 1000fps setting is not HD. I actually think it’s below VGA.

@David – It’s going to depend on the quality you are recording at.

Wow! Looks like this might be the perfect upgrade to my current Casio! I’ve been sticking with a 2006 model since I didn’t care for Casio’s experiments with H264. :P I was excited to hear that Casio’s 2009 models don’t use H264.

I’ve been curious about any recording limitations such as the UK 10-minute limit, does that exist in the US model. Also, how is the audio recording and what happens when the frame rate is turned up?

I recently tried and returned a device because it could record at 60 FPS but I was disappointed that the frames seemed to drop to less than 20 in less than ideal lighting. I’m wondering, is it possible or feasible to record in 1000 FPS and then reduce it down to 60 in post-processing?

I’m curious as to how much record time you’d get with say..a 1 gig SD card? Any idea?
