how come it wasn't uploaded in 1080p?]]>Apr 19th 2010 10:18AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/Apr 19th 2010 5:23AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/Apr 19th 2010 5:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/
so if we make that 2800 fps that comes to... 1050gb per minute..

that can't be right that google result was probably wrong]]>Apr 19th 2010 5:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/How long do your 2,800fps movies usually last?]]>Apr 19th 2010 5:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/Apr 19th 2010 6:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/Apr 19th 2010 7:29AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/Apr 19th 2010 7:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/

When the final cut is done, the video would be exported and compressed into a h.264 video file thats small enough to put onto a blu ray.]]>Apr 19th 2010 10:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/Apr 19th 2010 12:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/1080 is
1920x1080 pixels = 2 073 600 pixels
Assuming this camera captures 8 bit per color without mosaicing (very doubtull)
This would be
2 073 600 px * 3 color channel * (1 byte / (colorChannel * px))
= 6 220 800 Byte
~= 6 mb per frame
6 mb/frame * 2800 frames/sec = 16,5 GB / sec
6 mb/frame * 25 frames/sec = 150 MB / sec

16,5 GB / sec * 60 sec / min ~= 1 TB
150 MB / sec * 60 sec / min ~= 9 GB

Blurays are either encoded with MPEG2 or h264, more specifically most are encoded with h264 High Profile, which among other things reduces the resolution of the color channels, this reduces the size to 0.5, other factors again reduce the size to at most 40 Mbit/s or about 1/30th of the size of the original data stream.]]>Apr 19th 2010 2:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/Apr 19th 2010 5:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/Apr 19th 2010 5:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/Apr 19th 2010 7:26AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/Apr 19th 2010 7:52AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/Apr 19th 2010 5:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/Apr 19th 2010 5:41AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/Apr 19th 2010 6:04AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/you got a bionic arm or something? made from solid gold and encrusted with diamonds? maybe you have an arm from iron man?]]>Apr 19th 2010 10:29AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/Apr 19th 2010 5:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/Apr 19th 2010 5:47AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/Apr 19th 2010 6:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/Apr 19th 2010 6:15AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/Apr 19th 2010 6:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/19/vision-researchs-phantom-flex-captures-1080p-at-2-800-fps-our/
