High-Speed Photographs

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.

Got any computer screens you don't need? Or microwaves? Find a high wall and push.

The ballon one is hot.

Just a suggestion, get some better lens or sensors. The image quality could better show what is happening (especially the one with the jello)

It only cost me 20 Dollars to make with existing supplies (eg. jello and camera).

Just a thought.

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.
