World's Fastest Camera - Scientists have made the fastest camera ever. It can take 6.1 million pictures in a single second, at a shutter speed of 440 trillionths of a second. Light itself moves just a fraction of a centimeter in that time. A camera that can take a photo every half a billionth of a second has been unveiled by researchers. It will be able to catch super fast movements such as neural activity in the brain.
