High Speed Photography

I've been testing the Triggersmart Motion Capture device from Sabreswitch. This is a clear little device used to capture high speed photos from race finish lines to gun shots and explosions. I wouldn't say its as easy as they make it out to be as I spent quite some time planning this out, the other issues I had were the provided cables didn't give me much control and options. Out of the box I could use the system to fire on the laser beam being broken and using a Canon camera. Seeing as I'm a Nikon or Sony user this meant to had to find the correct cables to link the systems together. As for the high speed flash connector I had to use my flash adpater from my Sony Studio Set up which has a PC port on it and then find out of a cheap wireless trigger box a PC to 2.5mm jack cable. All fun and games.
