Some good ideas here!. I remember when I was taking classes we used a strobe and an slow shutter speed to take pictures of a light bulb being broken,!.It gave a multiple exposure effect with each flash of the stobe being frozen in time on the frame A regular flash in a completely dark room will work!. The sinc speed is regulated so that the entire sensor can be exposed to the flash!. With focal plane shutters if the speed was faster you would not expose the entire sensor!. The slower shutter speed will not be a problem if the room is dark the only light will come the strobe firing it can!. If your camera will do it you may want to try it with rear curtain syncWww@QuestionHome@Com

Can't do it not fast enough!. The way to do it is with a strobe light!. Open up the shutter of the camera and flash a strobe light!. That will freeze the motion!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Just do it in the dark!. The flash can be as short as 1/2500ths of a second!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
