Ultra Motion
Ultra Motion cameras are high-speed HD camera systems used by major broadcasters on a range of high-profile and international events. Ultra Motion was designed to operate and integrate like a standard camera. With the recording up to 600 fps.For almost 30 years, the TV viewer had to rely on seeing cricket action just once, for action replays did not exist till about the 1960′s. Now of course, we get replays from various angles and they are not only slow motion, they are super slow mo and even ultra motion where action is shown at a 1000 frames per second.
Needless to say that high-end cameras are used to produce the finest quality of pictures, making watching cricket an absolute delight. Another interesting observation is the fact that cricket action was covered from one perspective only for as many as 4 decades. For instance, as a viewer you could see all the action only from the pavilion end angle. But all that changed and one could see an all-round view of the game
