Another neat use for this would be filming an angler fighting a fish. Seeing the visable strains put on a rod. Just thinking out loud. Filming in a wind would show the effects wind has on a cast.

As a general note to FF&W readers: There is so much that has been done in the study of casting in the last seven years, and so much of it has <i>not</i> been in the mainstream angling media (at least not in the U.S.). I hope that FF&W can help "spread the word" a bit more in that regard. Looking forward to our next project, Grunde... Thanks for stopping by and providing a few words, Grunde.

I hope that even "non-geek-casters" will enjoy watching the movies. Some comments: All the movies where captured indoor during controlled false casting. The short casts where made with 10 meters of wf #5 fly-line _outside_ the rod tip and the longer casts with 16 meters of the same line. The short casts where made with and without hauling while the long casts are all done with hauling. If any of you have any questions regarding the movies just drop me (grunde.lovoll (at) gmail.com) or Jason a line. Grunde Thanks to Jason for pointing to the videos again!

It is better that I added the new bit on how to go about it, so no stupid (slightly or otherwise) on your end. Indeed, I should have been clearer to begin with...

I feel slightly stupid now, but it's something I've had to get used to over the years! Nice one. Sweet! I feel slightly stupid now, but it’s something I’ve had to get used to over the years!

I will make an update to this post that shows what to look for in order to get the files... Steve—There is a link on Revver itself that allows actual download of each video (in QT).

Prior to 2004/5, I had been looking into renting/buying a true high-speed cam (250+fps). To get the required physical resolution, coupled with the necessary frame rate, I found myself a bit short in the cash department. But then I got in touch with Grunde, and he started sending me the 500fps files. I was elated, to say the least! I also have access to 200fps stuff in 3-D (via motion capture), but the system is not in my possession, so I can't just grab video off it whenever the mood strikes, unfortunately... Hopefully this spring/summer, I'l be able to generate some multi-viewpoint videos from that mo-cap system. Keep watching!

How do you download into quicktime? It's either me or my mac, but I can't do it! They are cool! How do you download into quicktime? It’s either me or my mac, but I can’t do it!
