featuring lightning, photographer Dustin Farrell spent the summer of 2017 chasing
storms while toting a 4K camera rig that takes 1000 frames per second of
raw, uncompressed footage, (For comparison: most movies are shot at 24 frames
per second.) after driving 20,000 miles over a 30-day period, he had
recorded 10
terabytes of data, which he then whittled down to 3:18 of spectacular video, what enabled his success was not just the ultrafast frame rate of modern
cameras, but also the recording technology in which a camera constantly
records, writes to RAM, then overwrites, and overwrites again, until a button is
pressed to save the RAM contents, with some advice from blogger Fletcher DeLancey,
who created Oregon Expat, "Stop what you’re doing and watch this video. But
watch it the right way: full screen, in a darkened room, and with a good
sound system turned up." you can see the full sized version here, and my advice? grab a coffee and enjoy, I know I did!
