Casio's been showing off a slick new camera prototype that can shoot a whopping 60 frames per second at 6 megapixels. Not fast enough for you? Well, it can also shoot a whopping 300 frames per second at VGA quality. That's pretty damned fast.

That kind of speed would really be useful only for slow-mo photography, and any memory card available today would very quickly fill up with that kind of shooting, but as the camera isn't due to be available for at least a year or two, it's safe to assume that storage will catch up with it in time. It's a pretty nifty feature, sure to fill Flickr with photos of balloons popping and water spilling as soon as it comes out. I can't wait! — Adam Frucci
