Sampling speed (measured in frames per second, fps) and image size can be selected, but there is a trade-off:
* 5000 fps with 1024 x 1024 pixels(full frame)
5000 fps with 1024 x 1024 pixels(full frame) and up to 200000 fps (maximum ever employed so far) with 182 x 80 pixels
* 10000 fps with 512 x 512 pixels
* 200000 fps (maximum ever employed so far) with 182 x 80 pixels
 
The dynamic range of the sensor is 8 bits, and the memory size is 8 GB.
