Slow motion camera shutter - Canon TX / 350D 2,000 fps

Slow motion video of a Canon digital rebel XT (AKA 350D) DSLR taking a picture. Shot with a Redlake N3 high speed camera at 2,000 frames per second (except the one shot at 4,000 frames per second). You can see the mirror lift up, the shutter curtain open and close, and the mirror drop back down. As you can see, the entire image is not captured at the same instant. Instead, the top of the image is captured before the bottom, although the difference is only a few milliseconds.

It's kind of scary seeing that delicate shutter smacked around like that.
