Slow Motion Lightning, 12 July 2015

My daughter got some nice high-speed camera captures of lightning while I drove. We chased a small storm system from Rapid City to Wall SD on the evening of 12 July 2015. Captures were made using a Vision Research Miro 4 recording at 2,000 fps.

    That was entertaining. I wish I had a 2000fps camera when I was younger :D.

    That being said, I really wonder why there's no video around that are 50k+fps in hi-resolution. We have the technology. Is there no general interest in watching 50k+fps lightning strikes? I know I would love to see that! There's some on youtube that are really slow, but I feel their resolution is lacking.
