On-ride photos on Impulses: Impossible?

I looked nasty on my on ride photo for Volcano, hehe, It shouldent be a issue to take the pictuer at any higher speeds. On Hypersonic XLC, it took it while the train was still moveing preety faster prop over 70mph.

Why not confugure the camera to respond to the initial prox switch activation, then have to be reset, preferably by a button on the control panel, to take pics again. It could be totally automated, too. If I were the designer, I'd have it go rigth at launch.

But even if it took 6 pictures, they could just display the first one, or the last one... I'm no expert, but that seems like it could work.

Or you could just use a photocell to set it off... it's really not that complex or hard to set up... if you don't want it to take pictures but once, have it wired into the controller so the camera only fires once per dispatch cycle. Or even simpler, put it on a timer so it won't fire but once per cycle.

It's not complex.

Lifts are for wimps. Real enthusiasts use the power of their minds to make the trains go up the first hill.
