Mark Johnson

Company Director and Camera Operator

Mark has a background in engineering and sports science. He used early VHS based high speed cameras back in 1997 to film sprint athletes. He founded Slowmo Ltd along with former Photron agent Bob Sharp back in 2003.

Bob’s contacts enabled Mark to quickly gain experience in a range of high speed applications such as ballistics and product testing and also hire cameras to the Natural History unit at BBC Bristol. From then on, Slowmo with the support from Photron Europe Ltd, has grown successfully each year providing high speed cameras for nearly every type of application and production. In recent years, Mark has focussed on providing the best high speed camera provision for defence and engineering based industries. He has filmed pretty much everything in slow motion so feel free to contact him to discuss your high speed camera requirements.
