"Marey devised a 'photographic gun' which he aimed at flying birds like an ordinary rifle, the pictures being taken round the edge of a circular revolving plate. In this way Marey obtained at short intervals successive images showing the different phases of a movement. The photographs of the flight of birds were the most remarkable results so far obtained"--Gernsheim, History of Photography, 440.<
