Bought a new shell ejecting airsoft gun and recorded the shell eject mechanism. I really like the footage that came out of it:

Chronos User Discussion / Re: Opening Tiff raw

The proper way to open TIFF raw photos depends on how they were saved and whether special color space conversion or demosaicing is needed. If artifacts show up, it's probably because the raw Bayer data was interpreted incorrectly.

How much are just the luts? Also, could you film a window mesh or any fabric with fine detail for me at 1000 fps? I want to see the aliasing/moire pattern and how it compares with my 1.4.

Nope, sorry. As it is the mount is a friction fit and has a limited number of uses before it has to be replaced.

Chronos User Discussion / Re: Spare Battery with charger for chronos 2.1 hd

For extended recording durations, consider using external power sources. Users have successfully employed external batteries from brands like FXLION and REYTRIC to power the Chronos 2.1-HD.

Oh and here is the light reading that I'm currently getting.
Do far I have been filming at about 2,500fps

Here is a picture of my set up. I do need to do the research into a differnt lens as this one has a very small depth of view.
I remember some stuff from when I took photograph way backing high school, and I think I need a lens with a higher f-stop

That largely depends on the Area you trying to light, the Aperture of the Lens and Framerate you trying to shoot at.
 Also the Distance the Lights are away from your Subject to shoot.
 for Hand-Sized Objects, you can get pretty good results from 200 to 600W of LEDs often, if you Trying to Light a whole Room and maybe even shoot higher than 1000fps, then you will need 1500+W of LEDs (or Sunlight) or a lens with a very large Aperture.

So im a fairly new owner of a Chronos 1.4 and videogaphy in general. But I'm quickly falling in love with the hobby.

I built a little battery powered LED array using 6x 100 watt cool white LEDS for testing and it works well.
So now im trying to deside how many more I should make to fully utilize the Chronos? Also, I will be doing all the filming inside.

I was going to just keep making LED arrays until I was happy but then I thought asking here would be very informative.

I bet someone is going to say, " you can never have enough light" but at some point I'm going to run out of the LiFe batterys to power the LEDs.

So from experience, is 2kw of modern LED power enough or should I go for 3-4kw of LED power. right now my battery stock pile would only give me about an hour of 3.2kw but I can always make some more battery packs.

Thanks for the help!
