I'm in the process of getting and compiling that. But the blurb at
http://capture.sourceforge.net/ says "Capture is a tool for periodic image
capturing with digital Canon cameras". Fine, it can take stills. If it can
take a still every 200ms, that'll do. Doesn't have to do sound (even though
the camera has a mic), as I have another mic. Have you used it, or do I
need to find out for myself?

operations TTBOMK.

Two atoms are walking along. Suddenly, one
stops. The other says, "What's wrong?" "I've lost
an electron." "Are you sure?" "I'm positive!"
