Casio’s Exlim G EX-G1<\/a> certainly managed to tun a few heads when it was announced back in November, with it introducing a new angular design to complement its status as the “world’s thinnest shock-resistant camera.” Add to that the promise of being freezeproof, waterproof and dustproof, and you just know this is one we had to check out first hand. As we’re happy to report, the $299 Exlim G definitely feels solid and substantial from the moment you pull it from its packaging, although all that shock-proofing and weather-proofing does come with a few minor inconveniences compared to a standard point-and-shoot. The first of those is that the battery compartment requires a special tool<\/a> and some pretty nimble fingers to open and, secondly, the two extra side protectors that provide even more ruggedness require that you first remove some very tiny screws<\/a> from the camera and then attach the protector with some slightly longer screws (Casio thankfully provides a few spares). Once you’ve got things set, however, the camera should easily survive life in a pocket or backpack during even your most arduous travels — and take some decent pictures and YouTube-ready video, to boot.<\/p>\n

Be sure to check out the gallery below for our extensive hands-on look at the camera, and check back later for some sample shots and additional impressions once we’ve had a chance to really put the Exilim G through its paces.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
