Disposable camera is a very expensive and time consuming way to do
that. You might find the digital camera to be far more useful than you
think. Taking something apart and want to get it back as it was?
Pictures. Some jerk hit your car and start to drive away? Camera will
stop them. Just as a joke I a snapped a pic of a 1" VTR scanner while
it was rotating 1 rev / field (3596.4 rpm) and completely froze the
motion. This is not some whiz-bang camera, just a Canon S2IS. You
should try it - I bet you'd like it.
