Hey guys! This is my first post and I just wanted to discuss a quick idea I had the other day:
After taking some time-lapse photos the other night, I had an idea about taking long exposure video, where the "taking" of a single frame was actually recorded in "subframes" and could be played as a video. For instance, if you shot a ball rolling across the ground in a single time-lapse photo, you would see a streak across the ground representing the path of the ball over that period of time. If you could view this recording process in real time however, it would look like a ball rolling across the frame, leaving a streak as it traveled. Not only would this be an extremely interesting style of shooting, but it opens the door for high speed video as well. If you think of a long exposure shot as like an infinite number of iterations (frames) that have been composed together to form the shot, then you could theoretically shoot video at an infinite frame rate (speaking strictly theoretically here). If all you had to do was specify the number of subframes, or rate at which the camera recorded subframes, you could dial in the frame rate of a "streaky" looking video to be whatever your heart desires. What do you guys think? Do you know if this would be possible with a digital camera?
