For those that need more than 120fps...

Well, it's not entirely ideal but, hey, if you're interested here it is:

By the makers of the Phantom HD comes the Miro EX line of high-speed cameras. Now, they aren't ideal because of their low resolution (800x600 max) but I suppose you could always put the footage through Instant HD Pro or other uprezzing software to match. After seeing DVX100 footage uprezzed to HD, I don't think this would be too bad of a solution at all, albeit a $10,000+ solution.

Very interesting and sexy looking.
Wish they had the res upped at least to 720p...

Unfortunately $10,000 will only get you the Miro EX1, which will do 500fps max at 640x480 and 1000fps max at 480x360.

The EX4 does 1000fps at 800x600, with a 12 bit option but it doesn't say the price anywhere so I imagine it is a good deal more than the EX1 :-(

Abel carries and supports all of the Vision esearch Phantom line of cameras, including the Miro models. Any questions we're happy to help.

Sounds pretty interesting, and good to know that sort of fps capability is out there (even at low rez). I'd be more interested in renting than purchasing, though.

Abel rents the Miro 4 as well as other Phantom cameras.

I just got a quote on the EX4. About 3 times the EX1...ugh. Such a shame because it sounds like a really fun little camera to use and to have.
