Photron High-Speed Sensor

Photron has announced world's fastest Mega-pixel video camera, having over 5,000fps at mega pixel resolution. Its brand new CMOS sensor provides 12b pixel depth and is capable of reduced resolution operation as fast as 150,000 fps.

5,000fps at megapixel resolution frame translates to about 200ns per row, depending on the image format. Even considering 2-sided readout of few rows in parallel, the speed is very impressive.

Most probably the sensor was developed in cooperation with Alexima.
