Alternative, wenn es wichtig ist, daß die Bilder kontinuierlich mit dieser Rate aufgenommen werden:
Die Kamera kann kontiniuerlich 8 Bilder pro Sekunde aufnehmen.

Kamerageschwindigkeit von 8 Bildern pro Sekunde

This is what's called "time-lapse photography" = "Zeitraffer", in which the frames per second (normally 24 f/s)are reduced.
(Slow motion is the other way round, the f/s are increased).

You can adjust this on most cameras, but only good (and expensive) cameras give you a steady speed, i.e. 8 frames per second without involuntarily switching to 7 or 9 frames per second and hence provinding the best result.

Peer comment(s):

disagree Klaus Herrmann : I think this is a photo camera, not a video camera, otherwise, there would be no need to indicate a continuous speed

You are right - I was thinking in terms of 8,16 or 35mm film camera. However, a photo camera, whether digital or not, would need a "Zeitauslöser" in order to shoot 8 pictures per second.
