What makes the Casio EXILIM EX-FR100 such a versatile shooter is its ability to shoot in a variety of ways. While it keeps to the conventional camera and selfie style of shooting, the camera can also be detached from the controller, which doubles as an LCD screen. You now don’t have to carry three different cameras for different purposes as the EX-FR100 can do all the above.

Built like a Rock
The camera on the EX-FR100 comes with a dirt-resistant coating as well as an elastic floating structure to protect itself against shocks and falls. Even the body is just as durable as its made from lightweight, fibre-reinforced nylon material at the hinge while the rest of the body is made of stainless steel. To provide extra grip on your more arduous adventures, there’s also non-slip tactile coating to give you that extra support.

Time to techsessorise
One unique feature of the EX-FR100 is its ability to accessorise with a wide variety of accessories and add-ons. From tripod mounts to multi-angle belts and clips, and even an LED ring light, this is come camera worth having with all the accessories. Both the camera and the controller are rechargeable with a micro USB cable if you’re worried about the battery dying on you halfway.

No Swimming!
Although it is waterproof and dustproof, the EX-FR100 can’t function underwater but can withstand splashes and spills.

Wide-angle Wonder
Fitted with wide-angle 16mm lens, you can now capture gorgeous landscapes and scenic shots. The f2.8 bright aperture works well in dimly-lit areas.
