We are pleased to announce the unveiling of our new High Speed Video (HSV) solution, built upon the Olympus i-Speed 3 camera. Olympus is world renowned in the fields of optics and instrumentation.
The rationale behind HSV is that you can record movement at ridiculously high frame rates and then play back at a slower speed, analysing the detail that would otherwise be missed.
Exceeding broadcast quality in terms of resolution and with a frame rate of 2000 fps at maximum resolution, the i-Speed 3 is suitable for applications including:
~ High Speed manufacturing
~ Ballistics
~ Sports analysis
~ Wildlife photography
~ R&D
~ Destructive testing
~ Film effects
Like all our products it's a turnkey solution and includes an Olympus controller/display unit to control the camera. a selection of lenses, Manfrotto professional tripod & video head, and a Comer LED light array. Camera and Lighting array include backup batteries making this a totally mobile solution.
iX Cameras, the agents for Olympus high speed cameras has a selection of clips on their YouTube channel to whet your appetite https://www.youtube.com/user/ixcameras/feed, there is also a good selection of third-party examples on YouTube if you search for i-Speed3.
