high shutter speed images

<< < (6/8) > >>

DC:
You're right Del but it gives you a snapshot of the game sorta. Because it took time you can interpret what was going on. By the shape of the string you can see how it initially accelerated to a maximum speed and then decelerated. You can see just below the bottom red line how it overshot the brace position and returned to normal. What is interesting me is that the string seems to reach it's maximum speed right about the middle of his arm and then starts to decelerate. I would have thought that it would accelerate until it was back to brace height. What do you think is slowing it down? Maybe because the bow is just running out of horsepower. If that's the case is it possible that the arrow could leave the string before it reaces brace height? If the string is slowing down faster than the arrow that could happen. Hmmmm

I think that the camera is capable of 1/16000, but that does not mean that the shutter speed is fixed at that rate like it would be if selected for a still photo. the video frame rate will allow a much longer exposure, and given the high quality of the photo, I think the camera program chose a longer exposure.

nope, this camera allows me to set everything manually. I believe all these are at 1/16oooths.

aaron:
here are a series of 5 images covering one shot of an arrow. if you download these to your desktop and view in quick succession, you can see the shot unfold. I believe these are 1/16,oooths exposures and 60 frames per second.
