As this Forum also has a Section that is for General Higspeed / Slow-Mo Talk, and we have a ton of people here which either own one or More Camera(-s) Capable of recording serious Highspeed-Footage or are at least interested in the Topic, i want to start a Thread here, were anyone can post & share Ideas and Requests on what to shoot in Slow Motion.
Really anyone can post in here, this is meant as a place for everyone who isnt able to shoot what they want to, for whatever reasons ( be it lack of Human / Material / Financial Resources; Lack of time; Lack of a camera or other Gear able to capture what they are looking for; etc.); and also for people who have the Hardware like Lights; Cameras and Lenses, and have a hard time Coming up with good ideas on what to shoot like Content Creators for Youtube and Such or just People who are Looking for Ideas for a Fun and/or challenging Spare-Time Project.
Would of course be nice if you would share your results here, if you end up using some of the Ideas here or doing any of these Requests, or at least link them here, but you dont have to, if you dont want to.
.
.
Only Real Rules i want to set here are, that anyone Posting Ideas or Requests should do at least SOME Amount of Research if what he is looking for already exists somewhere. For example, please dont just blindly ask for someone to shoot Mousetraps or Balloons in Highspeed, as those two are probably among the Most commonly Shot Things in Highspeed, as far as Footage for Entertainment Purposes goes at least. For Those you would probably find Plenty Footage without even trying, unless you are Looking for something very Specific, like Closeups of the Point where the Hull Starts to rip apart or detailed Shot of the Trigger Mechanism going off or something like that.
You dont need to spend weeks Searching, but doing at least one or two quick Searches on Google and Youtube shouldnt be too much to ask.
If there is any kind of Footage of what you want to see, it would be helpful if you would post that as a Reference too (if there is any), even if its Low Resolution or otherwise bad and low Quality.
.
Also, while something like the FullHD @ 180fps a GH5 can Capture are sometimes enough to Capture decent Cinematic Footage (Slow-Motion), this isnt quite what this Thread is meant to be about. Highspeed-Slow-Motion is what i consider anything shot at like 400fps and more to be. Ideally of course 1000+fps, if possible or Practical. So, If everything you have is a Phone that shoots 480fps, you are very welcome to post, but 240fps or 180fps, which a Lot of DSLMs / Action-Cams Shoot these Days usually dont quite cuts it for this thread. If you have some outstanding Footage that is shot at lower Framerate, where there is little or no other footage anywhere, please still share, but i feel like to be shot at 180fps or more would be about the absolute Minimum in this case.
.
Anything requested or shared here should also stay within what the Forum Rules are (and also general legal Limits).
