Why does the shutter speed need to be 1/k where k is frame rate. I mean, you can get cameras with absurdly high shutter speeds like 1/10,000 of a second (anybody got any hummingbirds, i wanna see thier wings!:-)) Why can't the camera just have a much faster shutter speed than 1/k and just syncronize the shutter with the film?
I read that the prototype has 1.5MIPS, but that Microsoft(May $100B-Bill die a horrible, painfull death, preferably as the result as a Windows crash)is aiming for 12MIPS for reliable reliability.
