CES Coverage: Casio Camera Shoots 60 FPS Burst Mode and Up To 1200 FPS In Video Posted on 01/6/08 under CES, Photography, Production By Marcelo Lewin Casio will sell in March a photography camera that will shoot 60 frames per second in burst mode and in video mode, it will shoot up to 1200 frames per second.
