Photron Fastcam SA1.1 Hire - 16:9 Standard Definition Video @ 10,000 fps
Description:
Just like our Photron Ultima APX, but better! Put simply our SA1.1 does everything our Photron Ultima APX does but is capable of shooting Standard Definition 16:9 TV (1024 x 576 pixels) at a staggering 10,000 fps! In addition, it is more light sensitive by at least two stops and the image has more dynamic range (equivalent to latitude in film) is wider and colour rendiiton is nicer. And data is stored as uncompressed 12 bit .tif files, nice and quickly using the Gigabit ethernet interface. As with the Ultima APX, Directors and DOPs love the ease of use of our high speed video, because it has been integrated with a live-image video eyepiece, a full range of cine lenses, accessories and optional Motion Control, that produce film-like quality images without the hassle and expense of shooting film. They have the luxury of knowing they can go for another high speed take without wincing at spiralling costs.
Features:- The camera shoots full widescreen broadcast images (1024 x 1024 pixels) up to 5400 fps, continuing up to an amazing 10,000 fps at 16:9 TV frame size, stored directly on disk (as 12 bit TIFF files).
- After wrapping, the data can be taken away on any portable drive.
- Whether shooting in our 1,000 sq ft studio or away from base, our portable Motion Control head means the camera can pull focus, zoom, pan & tilt, enabling computer-controlled camera moves during a high speed shot.
Additional Benefits:
- Instant playback on G1 monitor Coo at the graceful way that bullet smashes through plate glass while the next shot is being set up.
- Sensitive image sensor (25fps, 180 degree shutter it has a 320 ASA film equivalent) Typical shots require only 2 x 10kW lights, which means your lighting bill will be much lower. Nice.
- 25fps & Custom Frame Rate option You wanted to match live action and the standard speeds may not be exactly what you wanted.
- End Record Trigger Continuously record in a loop and cut when you've seen the action - no more missed takes.
- Synchronise Trigger Kit option Synchronise an event to camera turnover - pyrotechnics have never been so much fun.

Look at it another way:
Shooting high speed on a Photosonic film camera, a typical take using 1000ft magazine of 35mm film would cost £1000 in stock and telecine alone, before you've even put it through steadygate to sort out the film weave (the images recorded on HSV are steady as a rock). A high speed video shoot day with Pirate can yield 30 or more takes - imagine how much that would cost if shot on film!
