Interesting indeed. However, not to be found in your everyday Nikon, Canon,
Olympus, or Fujifilm anytime soon.

If they do they should be able to shoot a 100 meter track event and take a
week, or more to analyze each movement/moment for those 10 seconds. ;-)

Do you think they might have a rolling shutter issue?

Hell! I have a hard enough time trying to use 30fps, and at an airshow with
low level, high speed passes I find that a 3 to 5 frame burst, with the
occasional 8 frame burst is all I need. You have to control that trigger
finger.

It will breath new life into LR, and one event will take an entire
life's work to select the best shots! ;-)


I have my head stuck in LR with selecting single frames, and finding that
“shot” in any of my occasional bursts. I certainly can’t imagine
analyzing the content of a second or two from a 10 trillion fps sequence.

Seriously, I suspect that we'll see some significant boost in capture
rates for upscale cameras in the not-so-distant future. As for 30fps,
those who have shot video have always worked with that rate, and it's
not much of a challenge. IMO, the issue is that it isn't the best way to
get individual shots anyway, but for those who work that way, a 120fps
rate would improve their chances.


Well I can shoot 120fps video with my X-T3, not that I am a video shooter,
but then to dig through that footage to extract that single Pulitzer winning
“frame” is going to be a royal PIA.
