Is a High Speed Video Camera Possible?

[davidbrown2]

Well... This is a bit of a question.... Is it possible to have a high speed camera program in the N95 similar to the LG's Viewty?

Could it be made similar to the LG's by decreasing the resolution?

The frame rate of the Viewty is only useful if you play the clips in (very) slow motion. Almost all tv and film is recorded at under 30fps and doesn't seem jerky. It's just a gimmick.

just like to mention the stupendous iPhone video recording at a now screaming 15fps ..

but to answer the question .. um .. not any time soon .. 60fps HD might be nice but not with the currently available mass production chipsets.

not in the 96 .. if you're lucky Nokia might look at high res in '09 or '10 thats for screen and video recording.

i think you've all misunderstood the original post.

he is asking if the camera could be made to record at say 120 frames per second, then played back at the usual 30 fps so the video is in slow motion, just as the Viewtys camera can do.

If the question really is: how do I make a slo-mo video then the answer is in the Gallerys video editor.

i guess you've not seen what the 120fps feature on the Viewty can do.

it's not got the same effect as just slowing down the playback of a normal speed video.
