While this past weekend was anything but a slow-motion weekend, I was able to test out a cool new feature on the my new iPhone 6: Slow Motion movies!  For demonstration, we have the following:

 

A mid-50's Youngstown dishwasher:




 

A 1966 Philco-Ford doing the hula dance!




 

And finally, the amazing 1957 GM Frigidaire Unimatic!




 

Make sure you turn the HD viewing option on. 

 

Enjoy!

 

Ben

Awesome Captures Ben!

I wonder if GM and Ford etc. had high speed film to capture the wash actions of the machines in slow motion? That would be cool to find.

Cool vids, Ben!

 

I've been having a lot of fun with the slo-mo feature on the iPhone 6, too.  I'll have to get them up on YouTube.  The first one I shot was of a Super-Surgilator in motion and it was mesmerizing.

That is really cool Ben and Jon, and the Frigidaire Unimatic is downright erotic, it even has little bits of liquid flying around.

Really Neat! Thanks

If some of those were freeze-framed, they would look like the illustrations in the ads, especially the swirls of water in the Youngstown and the splashes in the Frigidaire. Those would also be like the photos of the two speed agitation of the WP automatics with the splashes frozen in mid air in the pictures.

Thanks guys!  What I found is that the only way I could get the true iOS slow motion was to upload directly from the phone to YouTube.  If I exported the movie files from the phone to my Mac, iMovie would see the movie files as a standard frame rate file with no slow motion added. 

 

In the future I hope to figure out how to export with the slow motion in tact and include this type of footage in a full production movie.
