My camera died on me yesterday, guess it doesn't much like the cold weather either. Now i'm looking to replace it with a camera with high fps to video golf swings, approx 600 fps or more.
Does anyone use one or know of a good one to get? and what size memory would you recommend?

I've got the ex-fh20 and it's fantastic. I use all the time to check on my swing. I keep meaning to post some videos for everyone to have a look at.

I brought a Samsung SMX-C10 at the weekend for the same reason, not to impressed to be honest.. I'm going to take it back and see what better ones there are.

Is 600fps necessary for recording and analysing a swing? If not what is the lowest fps that would be adequate?

Also, when recording a swing, is there an ideal position to have the camera/camcorder? Is a tripod needed etc?

Looking to get a camera/camcorder though a bit cheaper than the one recommended ideally (upto £100 as prob wont use it for anything else), any help gratefuly received.
