Best swing cameras for studios?

Setting up my studio and looking to get a couple good cameras. I want to have overhead, DTL, and face on.
I want to be able to see the clubface at each position. Super good resolution isn’t a huge concern as long as I can see body positioning and clubface.
Any recommendations on what FPS, resolution, or model cameras I should be looking at?

Hi Vincent,
Great cameras are helpful. You'll want to aim for a frame rate of 240-350 FPS or something around there. 120 FPS is the minimum if you want to look at some of the details of the release, but you'll get impact more consistently at 240-350 range. You'll also want a shutter speed around 2000 FPS. This can be a little tricky with indoor lighting, but the highest you can get and not have the picture too dark the better you'll see the clubhead. The model cameras all depends on the software you're using. Everytime we switch software at work, we have to switch cameras. It's frustrating :)
When in doubt, the iPhone or iPad is pretty good, especially if you use an app that allows you to control the shutter speed.
Good luck,
Tyler
