So I got an iPhone 5S a few days ago (fantastic phone by the way) and I thought I would give the 120 FPS camera a go with my laser.

Nothing too spectacular, but its cool to see a match light in slow motion.

EDIT: If you guys can think of anything cool to do with my laser and high speed camera let me know and I'll see if I can do it.

Not until you can see the beam extending and extending as the photons travel will I be impressed! JK. If you have a mirror and a small motor make a Spiro graph and film that in slowmo

Nice video!

As mentioned, filming a Spirograph in slow motion is pretty cool. :yh:

I have done it before with a low-power red Spirograph.

Cool to see indeed! I would love to see theSlowMoGuys on youtube shoot this same thing with their crazy highspeed camera- what is it, like a half million framed/second? That would be insane....

I believe their camera shoots 10,000 FPS @ 1080p 15,000 FPS @ 720p. Sadly it costs 150,000$

I think some new company is making a 5000$ high speed camera that does like 2400 FPS @ 720p. I might have to save up for one sometime.
