210fps... the future of RC filming...

[Garry]

This is a good one. I can't remember or find the original link, but I'd downloaded it from YouTube, so I've re-uploaded it. All credit to the original creators.

Thats awesome. Especially the SC10.

I want a High speed video camera!!!

[mole2k]

I think everybody should own at least one high speed camera!

[Chris Doughty]

I threw all the clips at the video editing software, added some audio and this came out

need to get some on track wheel-to-wheel racing filmed

[jim76]

[poopers]

Great stuff

Dunno why, but after watching that vid I want to buy some LRP Energy Power Fuel, and I don't even have a nitro

[JCJC]

Wonderful stuff Chris, is there a limit on footage, just memory or are longer shots possible. Camera looks great fun, thinking.............. who got stock at a good price

subliminal advertising

the restrictions on 210fps are smallish resolution (480xSomething)
and no longer than 10 minutes recording time (which would be 70 minutes continuous playback time )
it can also record regular 30fps as 720p HD or whatever its called (not full 1080p HD)

camera spec here
http://exilim.casio.com/products_exfs10.shtml
it takes SDHC memory cards, I have an 8GB in mine and at most so far, a days filming has taken up ~3GB, obviously if you go nuts you could fill it.

I would defo buy the camera again, it does good static photos, 30 shot a second burst photo and also the slowmo stuff, it even does 1000fps but that is at a very small resolution. the camera is also tiny!
downside - battery life isn't great, but you can get extra batts for a tenner.

May be this is to slow?

I picked up one of these recently and have to agree with Chris' comment on it. Great bit of kit. Will get some vids up soon !

I think that when 10th rc is slowed down by the right amount, it makes them look so realistic, as if they were full size cars.

My word, i was expecting something pushing the £500 mark or some crazy price which in photography terms isnt expensive, but reputable stores like eBuyer have it for £130, it seems very good. Certainly affordable to most people looking to purchase a camera.

I've always found my photos with a more than capable camera to be hit and miss simply down to the fact that my nerves arent rock solid and if its not outdoors in good weather than chances are the photo will be blurred and worthless. I've even got into the habbit of manually selecting a 2sec delay just to rule out the bit of movement when doing the final click bit.
How does the 30pps handle in those sort of average light situations? I would have thought that chances are somewhere in there 1 shot would be clear, is that correct or is it likely that it's just 30 blurred images with those split-second differences blurred in there?


On a tiny thread detour... I cant say i keep up with anything in the photography world so maybe some fancy dan cameras have this already, but ive often wondered why there arent custom profiles in digital cameras. I guess the most likely answer would be because you should be able to do them yourself for whatever the situation is, or use auto if your clueless (like me for the most part). I've often thought it'd be handy when ive spent a while trying to get a setting for a specific circumstance, it'd be handy to store it and come back to it later when a similar situation presents itself (and tweak it to suit).
