AN INEXPENSIVE ULTRA-HIGH-SPEED PHOTOGRAPHIC TECHNIQUE

1968

Commercial Ultra-High-Speed Cameras for framing rates over 50,000 f.p.s. are very expensive and yield a small number of frames (8 to 24) per run. The single-flash technique with increasing delays gives photographs at a high framing rate over a comparatively long time and, as described here, requires no special electronic equipment except a good flash unit and a general-purpose oscilloscope.
