I'd like to see this with the double slit experiment

It would look something like this[1] except with slower visual propagation.

Note that this camera (like any camera) cannot observe photons as they pass through the slits -- it can only record photons once they've bounced off the main path. Thus you will never record the interference-causing photons mid-flight, and you'll get a standard interference pattern.
