I am getting high speed footage of a bunch of interesting pistols right off the bat now that I have my Edgertronic camera, and one that has been on my list ever since I first shot it was the blow-forward Schwarzlose 1908. It's a very fast action, and my initial attempts at high speed a year or two ago didn't turn out well. Now, however, I have much better gear for this... The initial footage is at 2000 fps, and then I sped it up to 3500. At that point it is starting to get a bit dark (the Arizona desert sunlight will need an artificial boost if I am to record at any higher of a frame rate, but you can get a pretty clear view of what is happening. It's awfully crowded inside that action, and I'm really surprised that I haven't had it malfunction on me. Counting frames of the video gives me a total cyclic rate of seconds per shot, or (in theory) 2500 rounds per minute. Wow!
