  • Continuous operation camera with slow shutter speed needed

    Posted by Pat Wickline on February 23, 2009 at 11:38 pm

    I need a camera that operates continuiously and applys a slow shutter speed effect. I use this to re-project the image of moving objects real time. I don’t need to roll tape.

    How can I achieve this? I do it currently with a camcorder, but I have to actually be rolling tape because if I have the tape on pause the camcorder turns itself off after 10 minutes.

    Thanks,
    Pat

    Try this with your cam (assuming it has the slow shutter speed you require). Take the tape out and operate without, and you will likely find that it won’t switch off when in pause mode. Apparently, the retail shops do this when demo’ing a cam outside their shops.
