Can you film the lens of a phantom with another phantom to see how quick the shutter goes

[@TheSlowMoGuys2]

It's an electronic shutter not mechanical. No moving parts to film.

[@ianmaxwell60]

DAD?!

[@neovo903]

+The Slow Mo Guys 2 just wondering, is it a global shutter or rolling shutter on the phantoms?

[@DuckDoolittle]

+Edward Millard (Neovo903) I believe he said in the camera shutter video that the phantoms use global shutters, but I may be mistaken.

[@ericlopesbr]

It obviously has a global shutter. There's no way a slow motion video would be high quality with a rolling shutter.

All this explains the pricing. Seriously impressive engineering

[@ElZamo92]

Geof Dumas not really, it’s more about economies of scale. A regular old phone is about as difficult to make as one of these cameras, but the fact that they make MILLIONS of them in China makes them A LOT cheaper.

[@zabnat]

@@ElZamo92 That might be true for the past, but today many facilities are designed to be so versatile that they can easily make different products. I am pretty sure if they could make these cameras in China for the same money or cheaper. But they would have to make major changes to the from the QA point of view. When the price is not he main competitive aspect you might be better off keeping the production in the US and more in your own hands.

[@jeremyscott3899]

This was the most interesting thing I've seen all fucking year

[@Dolkarr]

I'd love to see a "how it works" video about the Phantoms. What is different from a regular camera to allow it to film at such high speeds? How does it mitigate noise from the very low exposure? Does it do any post processing like filtering the noise over several frames? What is the limiting factor for being able to shoot at even higher speeds? The resolution / fps trade-off Gavin mentioned a few times makes me believe it's the post processing or I/O bandwidth, rather than any optical limitation of the sensor.

[@Helveteshit]

They cannot reveal Company secrets that casually.

[@Spirit532]

Alright. Not a "how it works", but a simple explanation from a person that's "in" on the high-speed camera industry. 1) The main difference between high-speed and regular cameras is the data path. In regular cameras, the hardware is highly optimized to take a set of images at regular speed from a sensor that's highly optimized to work in that specific set of conditions, then compress it using proprietary silicon that can *only* do compression(in most cases), and then it's stored directly to non-volatile media without any buffering anywhere. 1+2) The second difference is the sensor performance. The sensors in regular cameras are, and this is a scary word for silicon, built down to a price. They're designed to be manufactured in the millions(most Sony sensors have a MOQ of 5k, sometimes even per month, even for huge companies), and they have been made to operate at their limit most of the time, including the pixel density and size, as well as architecture. The high-speed camera sensors are designed in-house, and they are designed entirely differently, main criteria being the engineer's requirements, not the price. They usually have huge pixel pitch, sometimes 10x higher than the consumer cameras, which makes them incredibly clean and noiseless, though that's not the only factor, I won't go into detail about that. This is also partly how it can get huge base sensitivities(without gain) that allow you to have very short exposures. It's simply how the sensors are built in silicon, no magic involved. 3) There is no filtering or processing of the images of almost any kind, except for a few minor things like subtraction of pre-calibrated sensor FPN. FPN is fixed-pattern noise, which is unique to every single sensor(silicon is not entirely perfect, as others may believe, it's always flawed or different in some ways). Some of that noise comes from imperfections of the pixels themselves, but most of it comes from differences in the column/row amplifier stages, because every pixel's value is still too small to detect with a regular ADC, it needs to be amplified. 4) The limiting factor for being able to shoot at higher resolution and higher speeds, both of which are pretty much the same, is bandwidth, or specifically bandwidth outside the sensor. The signal paths can only handle so much data, even with the highest-end components and the most brilliant engineers, 20-layer boards and signal length matching down to a picosecond. As well as the hardware limitations, there's also the problem of storage. Even the highest speed RAM has its limits. The images that are being stored are entirely raw from the sensor, there is no affordable(in terms of high-speed cameras no less) way to compress this much data(one of the world's fastest cameras shoots at 26 gigapixels per second), which means a 10-bit 1920x1080 image takes up 2.592 megabytes. One way to get around this is to make a camera almost entirely in silicon. This is what the guys at Shimadzu did with their HPV series cameras - they created a sensor that only needs a timing input, the rest is done in-situ. Every pixel has %frame count% of "pixels" adjacent to it, which simply store the image as soon as it's captured, without having to offload it outside silicon for storage in RAM. This is how they manage to get speeds of up to 10 000 000 frames per second, but the tradeoff is the number of frames they shoot, which in their case is smaller than 256. However, if you decided to make an entire high-resolution camera in silicon, you'd be looking at research & development costs of up to $20-100M and higher just for the silicon, and the production costs would be immense as well, since the silicon itself will have to be quite huge in terms of area.

[@AndrewBahls]

Noise is defined as spurious information that you don't want. It's not specific to audio.

[@Spirit532]

[@keithbillings3649]

I don't think being a customer of theirs or not matters. He has made tons of videos using their products, while saying he is using their products, and had millions and millions of views. The promoting he had done for them is enormous and he is very famous because of his work. So if I worked there he would totally be a superstar to me. Hell he already is to me and a lot of other people and I don't have to work there to say that

[@lforlight]

+ItsBo Sounds about right. I thought about the marketing quota of Gavin alone. Like Gavin told, there used to be a single high-speed photographer in the UK, to whom Gavin latched as an apprentice. Slow-mo cameras aren't very well known overall, seeing as their high price and very niche market prevents them from being a household product. But now, with this incredibly popular channel, millions of people are exposed to the product's brand, features and capabilities, and happily spread them around with one viral video after the other.

[@braedenamor]

I love how parts of some of the most advanced cameras in the world are made using stencils

[@Spirit532]

That's industry standard. Your phone's solder paste is also dispensed via stencils. There's no quicker way to do it :)

[@Mythricia1988]

Heck, even the IC's are fabricated using scencils. Well, sort of, kinda.... Photolithography ftw!

[@bassl0va]

Isn't wave soldering quicker?

[@Mythricia1988]

bassl0va Wave soldering is quicker but the process isn't necessarily compatible with every board layout or with certain types of components etc. Wave soldering is mostly used for boards with mostly through-hole or larger components nowadays. Also I think it'd be hard for them to set up a wave soldering machine in their shop, reflow oven is "neater", no harm in having it smack in the middle of a production floor for example. No worries about toxic fumes and flowing molten metal and all that... Besides, once you have a steady flow of boards going into the oven and boards coming out, reflow is pretty fast anyway!

[@Spirit532]

bassl0va You can't wave solder components without gluing the components to the board.

How do people invent a phantom camera? The sheer amount of detail and intelligent planning that would go into that process is mind-blowing. Bravo Vision Research.

[@Spirit532]

They don't "invent" it. They pay an army of excellent engineers an exceptional amount of money for a few months, and give them a task to accomplish.

[@WarpedYT]

I think about that everytime i load a mag into our Phantoms, very very dedicated engineers... so awesome !

[@Spirit532]

SheNoob087 Nobody came up with the idea of a "phantom" camera. That's just the camera series built by Vision Research. High-speed film cameras existed before that, and there was a LOT of innovation in that industry too, before anything ever became digital. This is just the continuation of the high speed camera industry that's existed since the Muybridge's 1887 horse shot, because he wanted to see if the horse had all legs in the air whilst galloping.

[@WarpedYT]

SheNoob087 LOL. that was a good comeback !!!. i have been working in High Speed photography for quite some time. originally Vision Research made high speed film cameras with high speed mechanical shutters. original high speed photography was invented in the late 1800's to watch the hooves of horses when they were racing at the track. i guess every good invention is created out of necessity ! or desire !. we love Vision Research and they are a very dedicated company. without them our channel and many of our slow mo projects would not exist !.

I have a hard time handling how perfectly symmetrical those water droplets hitting the water were

[@brachypelmasmith]

the water one without the die looked so fake and simulated

[@alecwhite5028]

Maybe this will help. If u think about what causes tge drops to be perfect, it gravity combined with several other forces acting inward upon thr droplet. And its also newtons first law (i believe) every force has an equal and opposite reaction meaning while a force is being put on from one direction, the same force is acting on the opposite side, thus giving a perfect sphere. Obviously with air flow and forcing it out the tube the water drop will not stay perfect the whole time

[@MrGeorgeFlorcus]

I don't recall if he's actually bought a camera himself yet or not, but I know that Rooster Teeth owns at least one, if not more, that they bought more or less for Gavin.

[@ererakoth5332]

I'm apart of a robotics program and they told us from day one that we would be using Windows XP quite a bit. Most manufacturing plants still run on XP and there might be a chance of something even older

[@SaebriSelect]

lots of industry and professional equipment is still optimized for XP, and you can still get XP licenses if you really need them. all because if its not broke, dont fix it. i would still be using XP if Windows 7 didnt work this well.

[@hungh0]

what, XP is by far one of the most, if not the most solid operating system around, at the very least the best microsoft has made I bet you'd be surprised that a majority of businesses still use DOS but they do, in general if they aint using XP then they're probably using DOS or some mac(albeit newer businesses would be more likely to use 7 or 10, being used to it does have a lot to do with it too, retraining staff, etc)

[@xG33Kx]

Everybody, it's not that XP is "solid" or anything like that. If anything, it's more insecure as Microsoft has stopped updating it. The problem is that the software needed for lots of manufacturing, CNC, SCADA, etc. systems is very expensive and very specifically made to be sure that it communicates with equipment the way it should. A lot of them use old APIs, code, and drivers that only run on outdated versions of Windows. It would be prohibitively expensive for both Phantom and for the makers of the software to start from scratch just to make it for Windows 7.
