Casio camera, now embeded with golf software!

The Exilim Casio EX-FS10, is a new compact point and shoot designed to please golfers or golfers in need to improve their swing.

Thanks to a dedicated software embedded in the camera, the EX-FS10 will help you analyze your posture and then improve your swing by better placing your elbow, arms or head. In addition to this feature, our camera also includes Casio 1000fps burst mode on top of the usual 420, 210 and 30fps.
Thanks to this burst mode, Exilim will also be able to analyze your overall swing process and then again help you to understand better why you have been continuously slicing each ball.

Other specs include a 9.1Mpix Camera sensor, 31.9MB of internal memory, 720/30p video recording, 3x Optical zoom in just 139g and a size of 97.1x59.4x16.3mm

Wa seh.
This is in my wish list leh.

any rough indication of price?

MSRP $350 US. Pretty good price for a pretty neat little camera!

sounds pretty affordable then..considering other brands of similar mega pixs...

thanks towkay

Where can you get it from?

i am sure you if put your name here, Birdman can organise a mass order.

you can get it from B&H in the US for about USD210 incl shipping

i bought my older FC100 from B&H. Generally prompt service and delivery, except for some initial hiccup with the verification of my credit card. They had initially wanted a full scanned copy of my cc for verification, but in the end I've managed to negotiate for only a scanned copy with the cc number blanked out, leaving only last 4 digits of the cc number shown.

But better to enquire first regarding the accessories if you expect nothing less than a full deal. Likelihood the price doesn't come with a SD card and camera pouch. Also, if anyone is picky about details, it didn't arrive with the usual protective plastic LCD screen cover you get pasted over the screen..whenever you buy new products...

Otherwise, the camera arrived in excellent working condition.

hope that helps.

Anyone interested to buy, let me know. Should be able to get better offer from the dealer.

looks like the feature is only available in japan...

"Believe it or not, this particular camera is already out in the US, but it's lacking the virtual golf pro. Only Japan gets that firmware feature. [Akihabara News]"

Cool feature but there are free software downloads on the internet to analyse ur swing anyway.

Some sites on Amazon sell this cam for USD$165 excl shipping but reading the reviews, it suffers the same problems as the FC100.

S70B,
What problem you're referring to ?

Slow speed clips are grainy. lack of light makes the clips even worse.

Batt life is pathetic.

Some pros and some cons la. You can't have it all for a budget camera anyway.

Hi, are you using any of these free analysis software? Which one would you recommend?

I'm easy. As long as the software allows me to draw lines, circles etc on my swing, its fine with me.

I use the V1 Golf Academy. Just google it or "free golf swing software" and it will pop up. The basic functions shd be good enuff for most. If you like it you can upgrade to the pro where i think u can compare ur fav player side by side and more interesting functions.

Am thinking of getting a budget camera to take videos of my golf swing.

Anyone already using any brand/models and can recommend one?
