CES and 3D go hand-in-hand. The trend has persisted for years now at the show, in a sort of “always the bridesmaid never the bride” way. Something always seems seems to manage to overshadow 3D, yet the hype and promise of its full emergence into the consumer market remains. Casio took a different route with 3D this year, turning 2D images into 3D works of art. The manufacturer was sparse on details behind the printing technology (it… Read More

We had two reactions to Casio's releases last year: We were underwhelmed by the Tryx and happily surprised by its high speed EX-ZR100. Luckily for us, the aforementioned natural disasters prevented Casio from making any announcements about a next-gen Tryx or even further plugging the camera (there's been a serious inventory issue). We were told that the camera has done well for Casio, despite any skepticism on our part (we just… Read More

While it's not known for revolutionizing digital photography, CES still puts on a good show. This year, we of course saw various upgrades and slightly altered models introduced by major manufacturers, but a few distinct trends stood out to us.

Casio is definitely drawing attention to its camera lineups this year, but it's also got a watch prototype that's getting some hype.

Geotagging photos might be a great way to remember and share where particular pictures have been taken, but it suffers from one big problem: GPS's don't work well everywhere, like in big urban canyons, and particularly inside buildings—you know, where lots of people hang out with friends and take pictures. Casio is looking to solve that problem in the Exilim EX-H20G camera, which features a hybrid GPS system that combines a… Read More
