  • We all see those awesome high-speed video shots all over the discovery channel. Renting one of those camera costs thousands of dollars for just a few days. What is the best high-speed video solution that I might be able to use at home? I have seen digital cameras that can take a few seconds of video at a time. Is there anything better if quality of footage and length of segment are negotiable?

Casio EX-F1 Exilim. It can take up to 1200 frames per second. You will find cheaper high speed cameras, but videos from those will be dark and grainy compared to this. I don't know why the price is so high, when it first came out it was only $1000. It won't give you the same quality as those professional scientific ones, but it is good enough for satisfying most curiosities.

Cool tools really work.

A cool tool can be any book, gadget, software, video, map, hardware, material, or website that is tried and true. All reviews on this site are written by readers who have actually used the tool and others like it. Items can be either old or new as long as they are wonderful. We post things we like and ignore the rest. Suggestions for tools much better than what is recommended here are always wanted.
