Is there any other camera as good as the casio exilim ex-f1?

Question

Is there any other camera for under a thousand with shutter speeds and features as good as the casio exilim ex-f1 like that shoots hd video and all that.

Answer 1

No, if your talking about video capabilities. Yes, in terms of photographic quality. Canon G9 beats it in just about every category, including noise prevention, manual control, image quality, lens quality, and more. Sure, the casio has 12x zoom, but more often equals to poor quality. That's why most really expensive slr lenses are of fixed-focal length.  I have nothing against the casio, of course, and if video is your top priority, go for it. Otherwise, panasonic, fujifilm, and canon exceeds in just about everything else. here's a excellent site for reviews.  http://www.dpreview.com/
