Thank you! I read that Vorticellas are the fastest animals on earth. The retraction takes less than 6ms. Impossible to see without a high speed camera.

That is excellent. That blue background works very well with it.

Now that would be both a fun and an expensive toy!

Yes, just checked out nice camera which takes up to 1800 frames/second in HD.

"Ideal for microscopy: With its 1/2” image sensor, and dense, small pixels, the C210 captures critical details, and is a great camera solution to pair with a microscope."
Don't know the price though, but on eBay similar cameras list for up to $50000 :? :o

I guess in another life...
