The invention relates to a device for inspecting fast repetitive events of defined duration, comprising image recording means for recording successive images of the repetitive event, and image reproduction means for providing a synchronized slow motion representation of said successive images of the repetitive event during the total duration of the repetitive event or a multiple thereof, whereas said image recording means comprise high frame rate image recording means for digitally recording a limited burst of successive images of a fraction of one event, and the device comprises software means to provide synchronized image recording of said fraction of one event and slow motion representation of said limited burst of successive images during the total duration of said one event or multiple thereof, andto an inspection method for such repetitive events involving high frame rate image recording of a limited burst of successive images of a fraction of one event, and synchronized slow motion representation of said limited burst of successive images during the total duration of said one event or multiple thereof.
