Hey everyone I'd like to thank those how have already sent me some infomation on this. But I'm still interested in more plus alteratives if any. I have already done some months of work on this.
The way I was already planning to do it was with a laser trigger and high speed flash. From what I have been advised was that if I get any flash & reduce the power the duration decrease. So I'm going to use several flash tubes out of disposable cameras and change the capasitors on them, which I'm hoping to reduce the duration to about 1/300000sec. The way I got the duration time was that as someone said before (but in matric) a average bullet travels about 300 m/sec (some travel about 200m/sec and some can even 1000m/sec) so at about 1/300000sec duration the bullet would be blurred about 1mm which would be great. Nearly all Flashes I've seen have a duration of 1/1000sec Which is good against recaprocity failure. As someone advised me before with the nikon FM2, Thank, But the problem with that is the as Nearly all Cameras is that the maximum exposure on that camera is 1/4000sec But realy an exposure as I can recall about 1/200sec or even a 1/250sec over the whole frame. Because of the way shutter travels, the way it decreases the exposure it release the second shutter before the 1st on opens up fully so just slit trevels through. And If you do this and something is travelling at the a fast speed can be distorted (streached) in relation to the shutter type (horizontal or Vertical). And thats also why most genral flashes can't be used at the max sutter speed. So if any know anything more about flash alteratation, alternatives and receprocity failure effects of color trany films of the speeds I mentioned Please let me know. Many Thanks. http://movies.yahoo.com.au - Yahoo!
