PetaPixel: Rapatronic Camera: An Atomic Blast Shot at 1/100,000,000th of a Second
Check out the Burke & James! (Or maybe Cambo. It looks like my Orbit. Hmmm, I saw Adams using it, and now this! Man, my camera gets around, almost like a garden gnome!)
That's a fantastic shutter for a camera! The magnetic shutter actuates for as little as 10 nanoseconds, rotating polarizing filters.
I also wonder where that 120-inch lens went to. That would be an awesome, if a bit unwieldy, lens!
Now, let's all chant the mantra: location, time, and the right light! (How I learned to stopped worrying and learned to love my suntan...)
