Hi,

 

I'm just wondering how long I can run the camera at 64 fps before I break it.

 

I broke it once just leaving it running to see how long the battery lasted. Obviously that was an incredibly stupid, rookie move, but it's left me a little cautious and I just want to be sure it can handle an extended slow motion shot.

 

Also: I'm at a loss as to what kind of cable release I need for the single frame option. The limited manual information I've found online doesn't say.

 

Thanks a lot,

Alex

Depends on the lubrication of your actual thing. With film it should hold any length at 64 fps. Better don't run the camera faster than 32 without film. An old rule
