If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

You could make a film camera to do that using Blue Peter technology. You don't even need a lens - a single slit collimator from cardboard would work, and just roll the film past it steadily

I noted in the comments there was reference to an iPhone app that can do this technique. Pity I don't have an iPhone.

Very nice - I've seen similar results from using a flatbed scanner as a camera.

There are indeed iPhone apps that do this - just search for slit scan photography. I also have an app on my Mac which applies this technique to video. It’s very time consuming to generate, but here are the results. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oq1arvW5 ... plpp_videoThis is a similar technique used to make that weridy sequence near the end of 2001 A Space Odyssey, and the classic Tom Baker Doctor Who opening sequence.

They really are taking the rail service cuts too far.
