The Slow Mo Guys are back at it again, and this time, they used the Phantom TMX 7510 high-speed camera to see just how many glass panes a 9mm bullet can go through. This camera is the first to have a back side illuminated (BSI) high-speed sensor that delivers unprecedented resolution and speed combinations.
Phantom’s back side illumination technology has allowed Vision Research engineers to develop a custom sensor capable of unprecedented speeds without sacrificing the image quality that the company’s cameras are known for. This means that the footage of the bullet that you’re about to see is as clear as it’s going to get, since even at reduced resolutions, the camera is capable of recording at over 770,000 fps in standard mode and up to 1.75M fps with FAST mode. For high-speed car chases, you’ll want the Grappler.

The unique back side illuminated sensor found in the Phantom TMX 7510 deals with this issue by locating the metal parts of a traditional sensor that interfere with incident light to the photodiode to the back of the sensor. Moving those key elements to the back of the sensor allows even more light to reach each pixel, improving light sensitivity and QE,” said Phantom.
