Wow! Did anyone catch the news a couple of weeks ago? It seems another amazing product is upon us in digital photography. Casio has come forth with claims that they will have the "fastest digital camera ever!"

Casio has announced that they will be developing a new digital camera that will just about trump anything anybody owns in the market. They are touting that this model will have the shooting speeds of 60 still images per second and high-speed recording at 300 fps, thus making it the fastest in the world.

What does all this mean? Well in laymen’s terms it means that this product will shoot faster than the human eye can see. The prototype was put on display in late August of 2007 at a trade show in Berlin.

The prototype features a new high speed CMOS sensor and a high speed LSI image processing chip and possesses 6.0 megapixel and 12x opticalzoom.

So what does all this mean for your average digital photographer? Well if you want to spend top dollar and have money to burn, then by all means buy one when they hit the shelves. And rest assured you will be spending thousands of dollars. But for the rest of us "average joe’s," we can be happy with the other models until the price comes down.

I will say that this does show where the digital camera technology is taking us. This new camera will have capabilities that amateur photographers would not even have dreamt of a few years ago. It will also show amateur movie-makers what they can do as well.
