Description

The FOR-A VFC-7000 HD Variable Frame Rate Camera is a high-speed HD camera capable of shooting up to 700 frames per second (fps) of full 1280 x 720 video. Its recording component houses a highly sensitive color CMOS sensor capable of a range of frame rates, starting at 125 fps, as well as shutter speeds up to 1/200,000 of a second. That allows capturing up to nearly a minute of high-speed action in super slow motion, using either loop or trigger record, and simultaneously outputting live and recorded video streams via the unit’s dual HD-SDI channels.

Other convenient features include genlock capability, touch panel control, AC/DC functionality, and a fully integrated camera head, body, F lens mount, and carrying handle–making the VFC-7000 a portable and compact solution for educational, scientific, creative, and governmental applications.
