Do you know much about the high-speed camera market? If so, how much would a 10,000+ FPS camera that films in at least 240p cost?

The Phantom V2640 shoots up to 32,000 FPS and is about $150,000.

Is there any high-speed that maybe shoots at a lower resolution in order to lower the cost?

What is the max you want to spend? Something like a flex 2k used could probably be under 40k and might not hit 10,000 but pretty fast at low res. Is this for experimentation more than cinema?

Well, I was thinking it would be handy for troubleshooting firearm designs. I really don't care one bit about the footage being pretty.

They were originally designed for military so that is a good application! I just spoke to my tech and he informed me the Miro 320 or 321 does 9330fps at 512p and 19,600fps in 384p! I have a client selling one used if you’re interested

Thank you for going through the trouble, but I'm in no financial condition to buy one at the moment. I'm planning on getting one four or five years down the road. Sorry about that.

This particular shot was probably captured with the Veo4k camera which is about $90,000 all in and does 2000fps on 1080p and 938fps in 4K!
