ultrasonic motor

Post by daddysauce »

Was just reading through info on canon eos camera and they talk about ultrasonic motors and "near silent operation" - a quick load up in google gives more info on them being used for camera motors

eg http://www.geocities.com/maitani_fan/ca ... ogies.html

- wow is this the thing for silent running of my super8!

I'm sure other people have spotted the possibilities here. Anyone?

I'm off to do some more digging around on google.

+ a little more research

Post by daddysauce »

as a plus to the last post I'm looking for an idea of what the quietest existing s8 cameras are like

ok a bit of info from any Nizo owners out there -
how quiet are your cameras? could you interview someone for instance and not be distracted by the camera(noise)

What is it about the camera that makes it quieter?

I've got a canon 814 bythe way.
