Strobe photography remains a highly effective and sharp method for capturing motion that persists as a valuable technique despite the existence of modern slow-motion cameras.

“It's hard to ignore just how sharp these strobe photos are, especially the ones Edgerton took in the 1930s. So we got a research grade slow-mo camera from 2020 that shoots at 20,000 FPS, and we're gonna compare its quality to Edgerton's technique by shooting a bullet through a playing card.”
