In his new short film, Salience, filmmaker Paul Trillo explores the theme of visibility. Paul and his team used the Phantom Miro camera to capture body-suited figures (rendered transparent in post) becoming visible through contact with bursts of colored powder. Watch the video above for the full film.

Back in July of last year, we teamed up with Vision Research to announce a special contest centering around their newest high-speed camera, the Phantom Miro M320S. We put out a call for proposals, encouraging image-makers and artists of all disciplines to submit creative ideas that took full advantage of the unique features of the Miro. The grand prize?

Phantom high-speed is now at every professional filmmaker's fingertips with the Miro M-series. The flagship of the Miro lineup is the Phantom Miro LC320S, which offers an entry into high-speed imaging with 1500 fps at 1920x1080 resolution and a touch-screen LCD display. Its compact size, smooth workflow and entry-level pricing make the Miro M-series the most accessible high-speed cameras available today.

Today, Vision Research revealed the new Phantom Miro LC320S Digital Cinema High-Speed Camera, which brings together the best of the two Phantom camera lines. The Phantom Flex, and its predecessor the HD Gold, introduced straightforward, on-camera controls and ease of use to digital high-speed imaging, while Miro cameras offer the same uncompressed RAW HD high-speed capture a in small, lightweight package.

AbelCine worked with action cinematographer Jim Geduldick on a project to test an early release version of the new Phantom Miro M320S camera. Jim produced and directed a test shoot at Camp Woodward in Pennsylvania, which involved skateboarders, BMX, and dirt bike riders from all over the east coast. Camp Woodward is an amazing facility that began over thirty years ago and has helped define "extreme sports" for several generations since.

Sony just announced the NEX-FS700 camera and, lucky for us, they brought it by for a quick peek. It has all the features of the FS100 but with some big improvements including a 3G-SDI output, ND filters and high-speed recording options.

The new Phantom Miro M320S high-speed camera has just been announced by Vision Research. This is the new flagship in the Phantom Miro line of ultra-compact high-speed cameras, whose form factors open up a new world of creative possibilities for super slow motion cinematography.

The new Phantom Miro line and its flagship M320S are the latest groundbreaking high-speed cameras from Vision Research. With a small form factor, affordable price point, uncompromised image quality and ultra high-speed capability, they make high quality high-speed accessible to more professional image-makers than ever before.

At NAB 2012, Vision Research will launch the Miro M-series -- the most accessible Phantom cameras ever. The Miro M320S has a sensor size near that of 35mm film and can record 1920x1080 up to 1,500 fps with an ISO of 1,100.
