You're right, Martin. MCTs cameras cannot simultaneously record at their
highest frame rate and their highest resolution, but their full resolution
image capture speed is still way beyond Oakleys, at 333 megaframes per
second. My point was/is that Oakley is not near the state of the art, and 12
megapixels at 60 frames per second (Oakley's claim) is easy to believe
technically, and not in the "vapor" category.
I share your tentative attitude regarding whether this will become a
commercial product. Time will tell.
