![]() There's so much to experiment with here, it would be a waste not to dive into what it offers. The FH100's menus are deep with options, too, nearly to the point of being overwhelming so if you're not one to play with settings this camera might be a poor choice. The Set button brings up mode-specific shooting options while the Menu brings up three tabs of recording, quality, and system settings. Pressing up on the directional pad changes the amount of information on the display, down sets the flash, and left and right can be programmed to do a function of your choosing such as change focus, turn on face detection, set the self-timer, or change ISO. Both the play and capture buttons will turn the camera on into their respective modes. Below that are buttons for moving between playback and capture, a circular directional pad centered with a Set button, and a Menu button. On its back, to the right of the LCD, is a discrete movie record button with a selector for going between the high- and normal-speed capture modes. There is also a button for switching to continuous shooting-either high-speed or normal depending on what you've set it to in the main menu system. On top is a power button, shutter release with zoom ring, and shooting mode dial. In this case, Casio's extra control options make sense, as it gives you direct access to the camera's two key capabilities: high-speed shooting of photos and video. Past Casio models have had a couple seemingly unnecessary buttons that made them a little confusing to use. The camera's flash on the right side is so close to the hand grip that you can easily obscure it, and you can likewise block the left side of the stereo mic with a misplaced finger. We have only two minor design complaints with the camera that you can remedy by paying attention. The camera is also remarkably small and can easily fit in a loose pants pocket or small bag. I'm not sure how much abuse it could actually take, but its design gives the impression that it'll withstand rattling around in a bag better than most compacts will. The FH100's all-black metal casing and heft give it a very durable, high-quality feel. Photo Transport, YouTube Uploader (Windows only) ![]()
