1.	Why did Maybridge set up a battery of sixteen camera parallel to the race track?
Answer» On his return in 1877, Maybridge set up a battery of 16 cameras parallel to a race track in Sacramento with each camera’s shutter connected to a wire stretched across the race track. As the horse galloped past, its legs tipped the shutters in an order, creating a series of photographs, showing the portion of the horse at each instant.
