Extremely fast LED light captures bullets, flash time 1/2000000 seconds

You can see a lot of photos on the Internet that capture bullets shooting through different fruits and soda bottles. Have you ever wondered how they were taken? In addition to using a shutter trigger that senses sound, these photos are usually taken in a dark place and use a flash to freeze the picture. Otherwise, at the speed of a bullet, the 1/8000 second shutter speed of a general camera may not be enough to capture a clear picture.

Recently, there is an LED flash called Vela One on the crowdfunding website KickStarter. It is claimed that the flash time is only 1/2,000,000 seconds, and more importantly, it can be obtained for only 400 to 550 pounds (equivalent to about RMB). It is similar to the flagship ceiling lights of various manufacturers. I believe most readers can afford it!
Vela One is equipped with 9 extra-large LED lights (about 5700K color temperature), powered by only 4 AA batteries, and provides about GN1.5 firepower. It seems very weak, but it is sufficient for specific purposes. The flash is equipped with 2.5mm and 3.5mm sockets, which can correspond to different triggers. However, it seems that such a high-speed flash may not be necessary for ordinary readers, because basically everyone has no chance to come into contact with real bullets, and such a high-speed flash is not necessary for shooting ordinary air guns. Instead, I look forward to future LED flashlights having higher GN output and being cheaper to see if they can replace the current mainstream xenon light tubes.
