FASTCAM MINI R Series
This new generation of the popular FASTCAM Mini series with a proprietary 4K/ UHD sensor is ideally suited for applications where observation of a large spatial area without loss of image quality is required – applications such as automotive safety testing (car-to-car, pedestrian testing, barrier/ roll-over testing and curtain airbag), fluid dynamics (PIV, microfluidics) material testing (DIC, drop testing) are some of the main applications for this product.
FASTCAM MINI R
MODELS R3-4K / R5-4K

With the FASTCAM MINI R-4K cameras, users can enjoy 12-bit image recording rates of up to 750fps (MINI R3-4K) and 1,250fps (MINI R5-4K) at 4K resolution, with impressive shutter speeds that go as low as 2µs. For even higher frame rates, the camera offers recording rates of up to 150,000fps (MINI R3-4K) and 200,000fps (MINI R5-4K) at lower image resolutions. The FASTCAM MINI R-4K cameras are compact, rugged, lightweight, and provides the best light sensitivity and image quality – truly setting it apart from other cameras in its class.
