Sadspinner posted on the main thread about finding a suitable camera / software so rather than it get lost in the general hubub I have started a new topic to see what others use
To start you off I use a camcorder that does 60fps and currently use Kinova (freeware) to do the analysis although I am currently looking at SiliconCoach which is recommended on the ECB video analysis workshops. My guess is that 60fps is plenty good enough for the general bowling action but if anyone wants to look closer at hand position / release then you need to up that quite a bit. The baseball guys have some interesting discussions over on http://www.baseball-fever.com/forumdisplay.php?53-Baseball-101-Coaching-Fundamentals (note need to create a log in to do a search)
