Steam engines in slow-mo

More Info: http://www.rapidnadion.com (Description below)

Some high-speed (120 to 1000 FPS) footage of a steam whistle and two of the steam engines in our fleet of boats. Shot with a Casio Exilim FC-150 and a GoPro Hero HD for the underwater footage of the prop.

@bigtorque Pretty amazing, the frame rates you get with the FC-150, isn't it?

@Rapidnadion even without the perfect angle... it's still facinating to watch.

@xKmotx Thanks - I wish Casio would have left the mic enabled in high-speed mode, but I guess that would eat up a ton of memory at such a high sample rate. In any case, we worked around it. Sounds haunting, doesn't it?
