Abstract: The performance to be expected from an image-dissection high-speed camera is discussed. It has been shown that these cameras sometimes appear to be about threefold faster than would have been simply predicted from the optics and mechanics of the system. A more detailed study of the system shows the apparent increase in time resolution to be real. Generalized equations for the time resolution of image-dissection cameras are presented and these equations are numerically solved for two important standards of performance. Using the known properties of the lenticular-plate cinemicrograph, its speed was evaluated at 100,000 frames/sec. It is also shown that this is based upon a quite conservative definition of framing rate.
