Hunter takes off - in HD from Tom Royal on Vimeo.

Hunter does his bit for science, helping me test the EX-F1's 60fps mode. This was shot as 60 6mp JPEGs in a one second burst and then smooshed onto the interweb, hence the dubious image quality (technical smooshing details: JPEG images resized to 960×1,280px in Photoshop, stitched into an AVI with JPEGVideo, converted to H.264 in Quicktime Pro then uploaded).

(NB - he did actually land safely about a second later. And he caught the snake, too.)

As per Si's note, the video below is very flickery so anyone with epilepsy, or who simply dislikes flickery things, should probably beware.

A test taken with the Casio EX-F1, which shoots video at 300fps or full-resolution photos at 60fps. The plan now is to film Hunter or Ralph jumping - it needs lots of light at this speed, though.
