Hello All,

Does anyone know what the latency of the flash diodes such as used in cell
phones? Diodes arrays would be fairly cheap I would think.

Hey Rhys...

You may want to consider laser flash tubes...  quite bright, very fast 
pulse rates. If you need consecutive pulses within micro or milli 
seconds, cooling factors should be considered...

The best I can do with a xenon flash is shown on my website under
"high-speed". I'm hoping to build a truly high-speed flash with a duration
of 0.5 microseconds. The fastest xenon is 1/100,000th of a second. Edgerton
noted this in his book "Electronic Flash, Strobe".
