Chronophotography is the answer - a very old story - someone even once
invented a gun-like camera, with a barrel, just for that purpose.
It is also said to be the dream of many people in Hollywood, when their
movies are as alive as Japanese films of the 50s. (wink)

Do you know this one?

We all do Keith. And can't wait for the R10 to be released at (so long)
last.
OT: Time keepers & Leica keepers (wink). Thanks for sharing Coventry's
past with us. Hope the future will be better there.
BTW: The Swiss also had tremendous problems a couple of years ago when
watches went electric/tronic. Here again they made the right choices to
face Asian competition; Swatch is just one example, but other more
expensive brands are also thriving on high-end mechanical time-pieces.
Keep shooting Keith, and share with us when you can.
Yours
