I film a lot of wildlife, and was looking into overcranking capabilities. I discovered the Panasonic HVX200, which overcranks to 60fps. The quality is great, and the video result is stunning (for subjects like running horses and flying birds).</p> <p>I am so in love with the aesthetic of slow motion, I wanted to try out the Casio EX-F1 camera. It's a toy, but it has record modes at 300, 600, and 1200fps. The quality is pretty trashy, but the visuals are spectacular.</p> <p>I would love to purchase a prosumer or professional camera, price range under $15,000 that would be able to record 30fps video with sound, obviously, but have a 300fps mode. Good HD quality, even SD would be acceptable, but 320x480 from the EX-F1 Pro just isn't going to cut it for broadcast.</p> <p>I've looked and looked, I don't think such a camera exists. Maybe something to do with the sensor, or the way the rotating shutter records high speed video... whatever the reason, I've yet to see anything.</p> <p>You'd think this would be a fairly popular technology? I've never seen anything compare to a good 300fps movie... they're just spectacular.</p> <p>Anyway, thanks to anyone and everyone who recommends cameras.</p>
