It's even more fun trying to get datasheets for them :)
What I really want is a Cypress LUPA-300 (CYIL1SM0300AA) high-speed B&W
image sensor. 250FPS in full-frame mode, more in windowed mode. Using a
256x256 frame size, you can push it to over 1000 frames per second...
It's a shame they cost ~?280 plus VAT each.
My evil plan was to mate one to an EEV P8079HP image intensifier and an
Olympus OM-Zuiko 50mm f1.8 "kit" lens. Homebrew high-speed imaging
system, anyone? :)
That is problably sensible. I've said many times
that hte 3 parts of me
that I depend on are my vision, my hands, and my brain. Most other things
(legs, hearing, etc) I could maange without
Oh $DEITY, don't take my hearing!
Seriously, I couldn't live without my MP3 player and a hard drive full
of music. Rock, pop, country, 70s to present day.
"It's all good... except the stuff that isn't"
But if I had to pick three things I could keep? I'd agree with you, Tony.
