I tried photographing a moving steam locomotive once. The slow shutter
time caused the wheels to look out of round.
It takes the 6x7 shutter 1/30 of a second to transverse the entire
frame, so fast action shots are going to be difficult.
If you are doing horse jumping, the thing would probably work, since you
can catch the animal at the height of it's jump when there is little
movement.
