The high speed camera will cost lots of frames at that speed.

Without one, the number of lost shots will be great as well and that
is sure but you must have a lot of luck… that is not sure.

Investigate the works of Harold “Doc” Edgerton at MIT in the 30's.

Light is free… capturing it is not!

Tiggers — what ever the maker — are not even part 
of a solution. It's all in the high speed camera.

Bullets travel faster than sound, so a sound trigger won't do it.
