High Speed / FPS

PostTue Aug 24, 2021 7:05 pm

Hello,

I am in the market for a video camera that does high frame rates for purposes of analyzing tennis shots. Does any of the BlackMagic cameras have the capability to record at frame rates north of 240 fps? I am looking for 300 to 500 fps. If they do have this capability, are there any time restrictions beyond that of memory? A lot of the high frame rate cameras I’ve come across can only record for several to 20 seconds. Budget is around $7000 to $10,000. Any recommendations would be great. I have zero experience with video cameras.

I don't believe any go that high. Above 120 is rarefied territory.

Why would you need to record for more than 20 seconds? That's like an eternity compared to a tennis swing.
