Sonar thumbrule; 1000 fps in air, 5000 fps in water, 150000 fps in steel.
Your ‘wonder’ suggests that you don’t know what you are on about.
Yep, hence my asking the question. I figure a slower capture would show a delta between the progress of shade / coloration of the shockwave in the water, and when the camera rattles from the air wavefront, which would also provide an answer.
