High-speed Cameras Capture Life

However, advances intechnologyhave created ways for our physical limitations to be enhanced with devices

. It is now possible for us to capture the micro moments of life and see the world in an even clearer perspective without missing a single beat.

A high speed camera is technology"s answer to capturing life"s micro moments. Regular video cameras used in movies and television shows normally record at 25 to 30 frames per second, while digitalhigh speed cameras can record anywhere from 500 to 250,000 frames per second. Cameras with these kinds of speeds use a prism instead of a shutter to collect a greater number of frames. A single second captured by this type of camera has enough frames to run for ten minutes during playback. Since this camera is very fast, high-powered ligthing is necessary.

The invention of high speed camerashave aided the efficiency of many industries such as academic research, aerospace, automotive, industrialand entertainment industries. For example, research in scientific communities such as biomechanics can use a high speed camera to capture the tiniest quickest movements in animalslike the single swish of fish"s tail. Scientists and researchers alikeare able to learn more about animals adaptive movements and behavior. High speed video cameras are also used in national defense. This type of camera is useful in aiding the army to observe explosions. A super high speed camera that was built in the 1950s by an engineer of the US Army was able to record the shock wave of an explosion becaue of its capacity to recordthousands of frames every second. In manufacturing industries, a high-speedcamerais useful in evaluating or preventing a breakdown in machines that move too quickly for the human eye to register.

This wonderful video camera is also used in the entertainment industry. You have seen this in shows like Planet Earth and movies like The Matrix and Sherlock Holmes where they have ultra slow motion scenes. Shows like Time Warp, which aired on the Discovery Channel,was an entire show revolving around the use of high-speed cameras, showing viewers the multiple actions in a single movementthat are too fast to see with our eyes, say a boxer punching a stomach. It is amazing to see how a punch in the stomach is like a drop of water making a ripplethroughout the body. Sports oriented shows are also gratefultohigh-speed video camerasbecause these cameras can easily deliver a clear, slow motion account of an event to the audience and help improve performance.

High speed cameras have long been commercially available. These cameras are a delight not only to scientists andfilmmakers but also for serious hobbyists. There are camera companies that offer trainings and workshops for using high speed video cameras, so people can maximize the funcions of this wonderful device. Filmmaking as a hobby is a great way to show people (or at least your circle of friends) the world from your own perspective, and a great way to do this is by equipping yourself with a high speed camera. The mundane becomes more exciting since one can can capture the tiniest details like the wind blowing water off a dandelion or the rotation of a wasp"s wings. The movements of a person, animal or inanimate object can be viewed in much greater detailwhen a camera with high speed is used. Capturing any moment or event is possible with a high speed camera!
