Phantom v2512 25,000 FPS Slow-Motion Camera

The Phantom v2512 produces over 25,700 fps via a 25 Gpx per second throughput. The v2512 is capable of up to 1 million fps at 256 x 32 and 265ns minimum resolution with the FAST* option. The proprietary sensor has 28 micron pixel size to enhance sensitivity and 12-bit depth.

Multiple connections, advanced features, and compatibility with both the CineMage IV and CineMag V data systems increase the flexibility of the v2512. The internal RAM can be partitioned up to 63 times allowing for continuous recording and download efficiency.
