I have just finished a sound-activated high-speed flash photography rig... and the pictures are pretty cool. I have pictures of pencils snapping, balloons popping, lightbulbs shattering, and *ahem* a steel ball bearing dropping into *cough* jello and chocolate pudding. Pretty funny.

Damn. Can you throw high?
Also, can you set off a sequence of snapshots? You know once the sound triggers could you take (say), five photos as fast as possible after that?

Unfortunately, No. The disposeable camera (Which supplies the 1/1000th second long flash to light the scene) does not charge fast enough to make even one flash every second, let alone several hundred a second. A strobe might suffice. The other problem. If I did get a strobe, the camera would be exposed several times (Hence ruining the shot). Sorry, gotta leave the Image Sequences to the pros (Who have much more money).
Edit:
The sound dosen't trigger the camera. Insted I enter a dark room, and open the shutter for about 10 seconds. I have the ISO set to 100,and the f/Stop set to 4.5. Since the flash would go off several times, it would make for a very bright picture.
