Casio EX-F1

[shikhan]

Hey guys,
My Kendo club is looking into buying the Casio Ex-F1 primarily for it's high speed video. I've been reading a lot of the reviews out there and watching the video and it seems like it is a great high speed camera for the price. I've heard that the stills arn't so good, but we don't really care about that.

I have two questions. Does any one have any personal experience with this camera? What did you think about it?

Also, where is a good place to buy this. When I searched around, all the big name places that I know of (amazon, BB, CC, buy.com, newegg, etc) didn't seem to carry it and when I searched on google, all that came up were places that were rated like crap (fotoconnection, broadway, etc). I really want to find a place with decent reviews (B&M would be nice, but a reputable online store is fine), a good return policy in case it doesn't fit our needs.

Any suggestions?

I haven't seen one in person myself, but like you I have heard good things about it.
i used froogle and found not a whole lot of merchant that carry it. Here's one though:

B&H is a very reputable seller. but I am only guessing that the Casio was not officially launched in the US so only a handful of selected few get the inventory to sell.

it may not be in the US officially yet.

Thanks andy! I'll be giving B&H a call it seems like, since it's not available online for some reason.
