Yes! REAL Science Camp! Lycopodium Powder and a blowtorch! Ryan LOVES it!!! They covered how to make a nuclear bomb in the first 10 minutes, had the kids eating bugs within an hour, and the flames were enjoyed by all. These were not continuous flames, they were merely huge flashes that I was able to capture perfectly with the X100S; other cameras probably wouldn't have reacted fast enough and been able to get the exposure right on the first — and only — shot I could make. (cropped from Fuji X100S SMALL NORMAL JPG, Program and Auto ISO and Auto Dynamic Range modes set f/4.5 at 1/125 at ISO 400, flash off.)
