We spotted a bevy of new models that do everything from go under water, print photos, and one tiny burst-mode Casio camera that can shoot at 30 frames-per-second." </em></p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/dht/auto/1233204132.usr18286.jpg" /></p><p>Here is a good roundup of some new cameras and camcorders that were unveiled at CES 2009. The Casio EX-FS1 will do 30 frames a second; the Sony DSC-G3 has 4GB memory and WiFi built in; and the Panasonic SDR-SW21 camcorder is waterproof to 6.5 feet and can be dropped up to 4 feet without damage. The small size and 4 foot shockproof design are excellent. And I love underwater photos, but 6 and a half feet doesn't give you much room for error. Most swimming pools are 10 feet deep and I would be afraid to swim around with this in my hand. A 12 foot range would have been much better. Check out the article for more on these new cameras.</p>
