I want to see this baked - fantastic idea [fj] |
|
|
I think that a single motion picture camera moving down at the rate of the fall makes more sense than this setup. The results would likely be superior and far less expensive to achieve. |
|
|
Now, if you are trying to capture a single moment in time along the placement axis of cameras, then it makes perfect sense. |

Combine with balloondrop.com, and give discounts to people wanting to drop video cameras. |

No, written of time lapse photography: You want to aim for about a hundred shots for a 5 second film, so if its over a day, youll need to take a shot every five minutes, but if its over a week, then take a photograph every 20 minutes. |

If a snowflake fell a meter per second, passing ten cameras one frame each, a 200 meter structure should net a 100 second film, though briss suggestion does sounds superior. |

The use of multiple cameras instead of one motion picture camera goes back to the 1880's. Another technique which is almost that old was to capture slow motion footage of a droplet hitting liquid by using a variable timing device to trigger a camera flash at different points in the cycle of a device that produced periodic identical droplets. When shown at speed, the effect was a droplet hitting the liquid in slow motion; in reality it was one photograph of each of many different droplets. |

I have a mental picture of Charles Chaplin flipping over comically, and seeing it pan around Matrix-fight-scene-style. |
