Shimadzu's 1 Million Frames per Second Video Camera
Posted by Filip Norrgard in "HARDWARE" @ 03:00 AM
"It may only shoot in monochrome at a size of 312 x 260 pixels and take up to 100 frames at a time, but Shimadzu’s HyperVision HPV-1 camera can record at a million frames a second (you can step down through a range of slower rates to a crawling 30 fps should you wish), enabling you to capture those precious split seconds of blindingly fast motion in all the loving detail you need."
I hear the Wachowski brothers bought a whole lot of this camera for their next SFX- and slow-mo-packed movie. They thought $200 000 per camera was cheap... ;)
