Are questions about scientific photography on topic?

Scientists in many fields use still photography in their research. However, the exact camera specifications and details of their needs are often quite different than those of photographers whose motives are creative or historical in nature. For example, scientists may be concerned with questions relating to ultra-high-speed photography, which may not apply to everyone. As another example, scientists may be concerned with the minutia of camera resolution.

The help page does not explicitly state that only creative or historical photography is on-topic. However superusers on the site seem to think that creative/historical photography is the boundary.

In short, is this site for questions about still photography generally, or only for questions specifically related to creative/historical still photography?
