Casio EX-F1

Price: $1,799

Claim to fame: Fastest frame rate

Made for: Sports doctor wannabes and YouTube posters

DL low-down: It will leave even professional DSLRs gasping. Its top shutter speed is 1/40,000 of a second versus the 1/8,000 second speed for top DSLRs. It grabs 60 frames per second. Great for bragging rights despite its Jurassic-age resolution of 6megapixels.

It does videos too, full HD and in stereo. Its real boast is its high-speed video: it's at a low resolution of 512 x 384 pixels but at a sizzling 300fps. Think hummingbirds in slow motion and analysing that golf swing.

Pity the hefty price tag.
