Despite the many advances in electronic imaging, film is still the best medium for capturing the highest quality images at very fast rates. Cordin film cameras have complex optical systems and use conventional film, either black and white or color.

There are two basic types; Rotating Mirror and Rotating Drum. Rotating Mirror systems produce the highest quality images at the fastest rates. Rotating Drum systems produce the most frames and are more economical.

ROTATING DRUM

Rotating Drum Cameras offer framing rates up to 200,000 frames per second, with image resolution very near the limit of the film. They are the less optically complex and therefore more economical of the two film camera types.

ROTATING MIRROR

Rotating Mirror Cameras offer the higher image quality and faster image acquisition rates of the two types of Cordin film cameras. They are capable of up to 25 million frames per second, and most produce images above the maximum resolution of the film.

Rotating Mirror Cameras come in framing, streak, and combination streak/framing versions.
