IFA is not only about the unveiling and launches, it also gives you a sneak preview about the things to come. Like the Casio digital camera -- still in its prototype cradle -- it is slated to become the world’s fastest shooting digital camera. The 6 mega-pixels, 12-x optical zoom camera is all set to bluff the human eyes with its speed -- claims that it can shoot images and record visuals faster than the human eye. Its CMOS sensor, high-speed LSI processing chip and image stabilization works together to click a still shot or video without your eyes seeing it.

This is how it is going to be super-speedy-cool, the cameras high speed burst clicking will capture 60 still shots per second, and the movie recording will be at 300 fps.

Isn’t that something to rave about? It will take some time before it is up for mass consumption and gets a price tag, but we are sure when it arrives with all the new features and with a label of the fastest, no one would ignore it. Ignoring means, missing out on crucial moments of a subject … or of your life.
