i was thinking a stop or slow motion video, I've just fixed an old GR
strobe clone, and watching my
35 with the strobe running just a bit faster then the machine. Took
about 20 seconds to see a complete
cycle. It is very simple with eyeballs, you basically have a very high
refresh rate. Getting a camera to
open/close its electronic shutter via a pulse is a bit harder, I don't
even know if any consumer cameras
can do it. It was pretty easy to do with a 16 MM gun camera. But I
gave all my 8MM/16MM stuff away
many moons ago.
