Chronos 1.4 | Handheld High Speed Camera

~$2,749+

With our advancements in technology, we have the ability to see the world in new and amazing ways. For instance, Phantom Cameras have allowed us to quite literally slow down time. But they come at a price. Now, for the first time ever, you can actually slow down high speed events with a handheld device that doesn’t break the bank. Introducing the Chronos 1.4!

Essentially, the Chronos 1.4 is a professional handheld high-speed camera. It’s that advanced that it can handle a 1.4 gigapixel-per-second throughput.

So, if you love slow motion as much as we do, then this is definitely a project that you want to back.
