Guess I need a more macro macro lens. I'd like to see more details of the "boiling" when it ignites.

Can you use a spacer to make your lens macro?

Chronos User Discussion / Renting a Chronos in USA?

« on: August 09, 2022, 04:59:37 PM »

So a friend wants to rent a Chronos. I’m debating renting mine out. But that I was wondering if anyone else rents the 2.1? If I want to try it?

I gave my coworker some of my high speed footage of an Angstadt MDP-9 and their direct blow back UDP-9 recoil comparison. He used it in his video review of the MDP-9

It is thanks to Timo for helping me out. He gently pushed me over the edge to just do it.

I’m using a mirror from a cheap Newton Telescope I bought locally from Facebook Marketplace.

For a lens I am currently using a 7 Artisans 35mm f/0.95 I thought I would need a faster lens for more light gathering. It definitely helps when filming at 32,668 frames per second.

I used a small Surefire handheld light with a fiber optic adapter on the end. The fiber optic wire ended up being too dim for higher frame rates so I just removed it. Plenty of light now. At first I did not use a razor blade but now I do. It helps improves the sensitivity of the Schlieren but it does reduce light into the camera.

I’m still experimenting. Have not gotten crisp images yet.

I don’t know who that is but he has a lot of followers.

I analyzed my Schlieren images and noticed shock diamonds in some of them. These were filmed at 32k fps.

I also captured shock diamonds from a suppressor shooting a .30cal plastic bullet. 11gr traveling over 4K feet per sec. Filmed at 40k fps.

Got a Schlieren setup that is somewhat portable. Filmed some bullets with the Chronos.

Was the smoke inside a soap bubble?

I filmed the changing of the guard outside St. James Palace.

Did a quick test. Sure enough. The muzzle descends on a gas blow back airsoft pistol.

With the help of my friend, he CAD an optic mount I wanted.  The plate sits lower and slides over the NATO rail on my SmallRig cage.

Airsoft guns in (slow) motion

Interesting. I did not realize that airsoft pistols dip downward. I assumed GBB with reciprocating slides would have muzzle climb but that does not seem to be the case.
