    Nice, but definitely expensive.

    I wanted to buy one to analyse my golf swing but my wife said it would be a waste of both time and money...

    Technology is amazing.

    Yes a standard definition video camera with a frame rate of 25 fps would be adequate to analyse your golf swing I would think?

    Looks like I may have to buy a larger hard disk for all the information produced

    Obviously you have not seen how fast and ineffectively I swing a golf club. Two or three frames are not sufficient for a meaningful analysis... However as the ball can go in any direction the camera will need to be equipped with a fisheye lens to have any chance of following it's flight.

    More seriously though I do enjoy people posting links to interesting articles that keep me aware of all the fascinating developments in photography even if a little extreme.

    Does that mean it is capable in catching me in full flight as I hightail into the garden after one of my many demeanours at home

    my favorite motorcycle is a 650cc single made by Suzuki. But I do enjoy looking at the big stuff. Same with photography, I keep it simple but I enjoy the big stuff.

    I do believe it will take the next generation to catch you leaving your house in a hurry
