Wow :o
Amazing
Grate,
And good to see the thrust cannot damage the CMOS Sensors of Camera.
Was it confirmed that CMOS cameras were used and not just an assumption.? Personally I would have thought the more versatile CCD type camera would be used. Mainly for lower signal to noise ratio and less likelyhood of light abberations.
Wilst there are a number of advantages the CMOS variety has, the CCD is still the leader to date. Although work is being done to turn this around.
It seems they were tied to the cheaper GoPro due to budget constraints although I'm not too sure of the lower camera in the group. No pictures were made via the center camera as it was wrecked whilst the other GoPro appeared to have it's lens partially blocked by what looks like molten metal.
Even so I can't recall thrust ever being a problem with CMOS devices. The Jelly effect due to the rolling shutters and vibration is the main problem especially with the GoPro. I imagine the group used their own method of mounting the cameras as the standard mounts would have caused major problems. An extra 20 cents worth of metal here and there would stop that common fault. Very good luck to them. I wonder what they do next?
Amazing!! Reminds me movie 'October Sky'
Well it appears Mr. Kalyan doesn't wish to talk to me, I wonder why? Maybe Karen is keeping his attention. What's up mate, You ignored my PM too. I don't think I said anything out of place. I hope it's not an Aussie thing. Some people do tend to find us overly friendly and it tends to scare them away. I don't bite, much :-)
I was just after some info on the effects of thrust on CMOS devices.
